Abstract

See full text

A continuous process is described for the production of microbial plasmid DNA for use in biopharmaceutical and biotechnological applications. The process consists of: first growing microbial cells containing a plasmid at a reduced temperature in a continuous stage; followed by a second plasmid induction continuous culture stage with an increased temperature, with a residence time that allows accumulation of the plasmid product. A hold step at a reduced temperature after fermentation further increases the yield of plasmid product. The method enables production of a large quantity of highly purified plasmid DNA from a small bioreactor over time.
