Abstract

The kinetic models of Monascus purpureus JR shake-flask fed-batch fermentation for cell growth,monascus pigment content and total sugar consumption were studied.The parameters were obtained with nonlinear curve fit by Origin7.5.And the good agreement of predicted values with the experimental results showed that the kinetic models could provide reasonable descriptions for the process of monascus pigment fed-batch fermentation.
