3. METHODS<br />

3.1 Preparation <strong>of</strong> the inoculum<br />

The composition <strong>of</strong> inoculation medium (in g dm -3 ): d-glucose 25, <strong>yeast</strong> extract (empiric<br />

formula CH 1.91 O 0.56 N 0.23 ) 10, peptone (empiric formula CH 1.795 O 0.5 N 0.2 ) 10, adjust pH to value<br />

<strong>of</strong> 5.8. Dissolve the glucose in 20 cm 3 <strong>of</strong> redistilled water and sterilize separately at 120°C for<br />

20 minutes. Dissolve other components <strong>of</strong> the medium in 60 cm 3 <strong>of</strong> redistilled water, adjust<br />

pH to 5.8 and sterilize at 120 ºC for 20 minutes in a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask. After the<br />

sterilization, blend both parts <strong>of</strong> the medium aseptically (final volume <strong>of</strong> 80 ml). After<br />

inoculation <strong>by</strong> one eye from inclined agar, which is used for preservation <strong>of</strong> the strain, the<br />

inoculum is cultivated for 15 hours on a rotary shaker at 26 ºC and at stirring <strong>of</strong> 200 rpm.<br />

3.2 Preparation <strong>of</strong> the production medium<br />

3.3<br />

The composition <strong>of</strong> production medium (in g dm -3 ): d-glucose 25, <strong>yeast</strong> extract 10, peptone<br />

10. Dissolve the extract and peptone in 1220 dm 3 <strong>of</strong> redistilled water and pour it into the<br />

reactor. Dissolve glucose in 500 dm 3 <strong>of</strong> redistilled water and pour it into 1000 ml Erlenmeyer<br />

flask. Check the completeness <strong>of</strong> the reactor and test-connect it according to scheme (Fig.1.)<br />
