Abstract

Fed-batch culture of Bacillus thuringiensis for thuringiensin (β-exotoxin) production was carried out in a modified airlift reactor. The feeding policy was based on the pH value in the broth. The feed rate of the substrate was regulated by an appropriate pH value. The yield of thuringiensin based on the fed-batch culture increased 30% in comparison with that of batch culture.
