“…An initial challenge of these systems was the difficulty in implementation of controlled feeding strategies, as in laboratory bioreactors. However, various solutions have been developed recently to enable fed-batch-like conditions, such as the gradual supply of glucose to the culture through enzyme-based glucose release systems (Krause, Neubauer, & Neubauer, 2016), the application of micropumps for continuous feed supply (Gebhardt, Hortsch, Kaufmann, Arnold, & Weuster-Botz, 2011), model-based intermittent feeding (Sawatzki et al, 2018), and membrane-based substrate release systems (Philip et al, 2018). These improvements bring the screening system closer to actual cultivation conditions, such that a better performing strain can be selected for scale-up.…”
