Determination of Biomass Elemental Composition of Pichia pastoris
摘要
A quantitative determination of a consistent biomass elemental composition is required for a wide range of applications, including metabolic engineering, bioprocess parameter calculation, and medium optimization, among others. Its determination relies on the use of different analytical techniques for the range of biochemical compounds considered. In this chapter, a robust methodology is proposed for its determination of yeast, specifically Komagataella phaffii (previously named Pichia pastoris).
