چکیده

The use of chemostat culture facilitates the careful comparison of different yeast strains growing in well-defined conditions. Variations in physiology can be measured by examining gene expression, metabolite levels, protein content, and cell morphology. In this protocol, we show how a combination of sample types can be collected during harvest from a single 20-mL chemostat in a ministat array, with special attention to coordinating the handling of the most time-sensitive sample types.

Kinetics of Biphasic Growth of Yeast in Continuous and Fed-Batch Cultures

The influence of dilution rate on the production of biomass, ethanol, and invertase in an aerobic culture of Succharornyces carlsbergensis was studied in a glucoselimited chemostat culture. A kinetic model was developed to analyze the biphasic growth of yeast on both the glucose remaining and the ethanol produced in the culture. The model assumes a double effect where glucose regulates the flux...

Assembly of a Mini-Chemostat Array.

Here, we describe instructions for the assembly of an array of miniature (20-mL) chemostats or "ministats" built from relatively inexpensive off-the-shelf parts. In experiments with yeast cultures, we have observed reproducibility in cellular physiology, gene expression patterns, and evolutionary outcomes with different ministats as well as between ministats and commercial large-volume platform...

Characterization of Phosphate Membrane Transport in Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D under Low-Phosphate Conditions Using Aerobic Continuous Culture

Two different growth media, namely complex and defined media, were used to examine establishment of steady-state conditions in phosphate-limited culture system of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CEN.PK113-5D strain. Using the defined growth medium, it was possible to obtain steady state condition in the continuous culture. The effect of phosphate concentration on the growth of S. cerevisiae in pho...

Chemostat Culture for Yeast Physiology and Experimental Evolution.

Continuous culture provides many benefits over the classical batch style of growing yeast cells. Steady-state cultures allow for precise control of growth rate and environment. Cultures can be propagated for weeks or months in these controlled environments, which is important for the study of experimental evolution. Despite these advantages, chemostats have not become a highly used system, in l...

A multiplex culture system for the long‐term growth of fission yeast cells

Maintenance of long-term cultures of yeast cells is central to a broad range of investigations, from metabolic studies to laboratory evolution assays. However, repeated dilutions of batch cultures lead to variations in medium composition, with implications for cell physiology. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, powerful miniaturized chemostat setups, or ministat arrays, have been shown to allow for c...
