PATENT CLAIMS Method for producing high yields of plasmid DNA in a culture of "E. coli" contg said plasmid DNA, comprising reducing the cell growth rate of said E. coli cells in culture by simultaneous feedback steps which maintain a desired pH & DOC, comprising
- Monitoring the pH of culture & adding base to culture when
said pH drops < first setpoint between 6.8-7.0
- Monitoring the pH of culture & adding nutrient medium to
culture when said pH increases > second setpoint between
7.05-7.2
- Monitoring DOC of culture & increasing agitation speed in
said culture when DOC decreases < first DOC setpoint
between 10-50%, & maintaining said increased agitation
speed once said first DOC setpoint is reached
- Monitoring the DOC of culture & adding nutrient medium to
culture when DOC increases > second DOC setpoint
between 40-70%
Wherein plasmid DNA production by said culture is maximized & protein & RNA production by culture is decreased
