The yield coefficient is not used in growth kinetic relationship of which of the following growth kinetics?(a) Zero order kinetics(b) First order kinetics(c) Second order kinetics(d) Monod’s kineticsI have been asked this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.This interesting question is from Yields in Cell Culture topic in portion Homogenous Reactions of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

Correct option is (c) Second ORDER KINETICS

To explain I would say: The yield coefficient, commonly referred to as the substrate-to-biomass yield, is used to convert between cell growth RATE dX/dt and substrate utilization rate dS/dt. The yield coefficient and the specific growth rate used to develop three types of MICROBIAL growth kinetic relationships; Monod, first order, and zero order kinetics.
