Estimation of chemical composition of molasses for leucine biosynthesis by the methods of statistical analysis

: Chemical composition of molasses, used as sources of carbohydrates for leucine biosynthesis has been studied. Influence of molasses parameters on biomass growth and leucine synthesis in the process of cultivation of the producer of Corynebacterium sp. genus is proved. The results are processed by the personal computer with the use of applied statistical programs. The limits of changes of molasses parameters, allowing one to obtain 19.0-21.2 g/l leucine at the level of carbohydrate conversion of 19.4-21.8 %, have been determined.
