Comparison of volumetric mass transfer coefficients (KLa) at different scales and during the course of cultivation. (A) Parity plot of KLa for the 20 L (x-axis) and 0.5 L (y-axis) scales with a slope of 0.7903, R2 = 0.9595. (B) Parity plot of KLa for the 7.5 L (x-axis) and 0.5 L (y-axis) scales with a slope of 0.7820, R2 = 0.9634. (C) Parity plot of KLa for the 20 L (x-axis) and 7.5 L (y-axis) scales with a slope of 0.9984, R2 = 0.9895. Solid black lines show the linear fits and dashed gray lines represent lines of parity. (D) KLa values determined online for the 0.5 L (□), 7.5 L (°), and 20 L (Δ) scales during the course of each fermentation. Data points are connected by dashed lines to guide the eyes.
