Abstract

Various membrane modules have been tested with regard to their use for cell enrichment with fermentation broth containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Both the cell concentration and the ethanol productivity were increased when using a continuously operated stirred tank bioreactor with different membrane modules. The biological state of the cells was investigated by laser flow cytometry and no influence of cell retention was found. Cell retention by membranes does not damage the cells.
