Disadvantages of fermentation engineering, pharmaceuticals

The disadvantage of fermentation engineering, pharmaceuticals is that it can not be produced continuously. Fermentation engineering pharmaceuticals have low equipment utilization, poor productivity and cannot be produced continuously. Fermentation Pharmaceutical is to microbial cells (animal cells and plant cells) as a production plant, the use of bacteria in the body of the enzyme-catalyzed production of substrates such as glucose to get the final compounds such as antibiotics, vitamins and other pharmaceuticals. Fermentation engineering is a new technology that uses modern engineering techniques to utilize certain specific functions of microorganisms to produce useful products for human beings, or to apply microorganisms directly to industrial production processes. The content of fermentation engineering includes the selection of strains, the preparation of medium, sterilization, expansion of culture and inoculation, the fermentation process and the isolation and purification of products.
