Disruption of native and recombinant Escherichia coli in a high‐pressure homogenizer
Abstract
The disruption of native and recombinant strains of Escherichia coli was studied using a high‐pressure homogenizer (Microfluidizer). The cells were grown in both batch and continuous fermentations. Cell suspensions ranging from 4 to 175 g dry wt/L were investigated at disruption pressures ranging from 30–95 MPa and at up to five passes. For both types of cells, the fraction of cells disrupted was dependent on the growth rate and concentration of the cells, the disruption pressure, and the number of passes through the disrupter. A model is presented that correlates the fractional disruption with these operating variables. The recombinant strain disrupted more readily than the native strain; 95 to 98% disruption of the former was achieved in two to three passes at a pressure of 95 MPa.
