Mathematical Model of Kinetics of Antigens Accumulation in the Process of Periodical Submerged Cultivation of Vibrio cholerae 569В Inaba with Limitation as Regards Carbonic Substrate

Abstract

Presented is mathematical model of kinetics of the process of O-antigen and cholera toxin synthesis during periodical submerged cultivation of V. cholerae 569В Inaba with limitation as regards carbonic substrate. The proposed model is based upon analysis of experimental data on V. cholerae 569В Inaba biomass and antigens accumulation, rate of growth and antigens release, and glucose utilization. Using Mathcad 15.0 software calculated are coefficients of differential equations entering into the mathematical model. Comparison of predicted and experimental data demonstrates that relative error of determination of concentrations of the synthesized substances, glucose and cholera vibrio is between 5 and 20 %. The proposed model permits to determine maximum output of final products and specify the parameters of cultivation process performance at different initial conditions.
