Table 2.

Model parameters used in the macroscopic Monod model for the simulation of CHO cultivations based on literature (Lit.) or experimental data (exp). Literature data were determined using fed-batch CHO cell culture and the markov chain monte carlo method for parameter estimation [49] or by the differential evolution technique [50].
