摘要
We describe a novel method for the realtime estimation of the accretion of biomass during the solid-substrate tempe fermentation of soy beans, lupins and quinoa by Rhizopus oligosporus Saito. The method is based on measurements of the dielectric permittivity at radio-frequencies, using a four-terminal instrument (the Bugmeter). In all cases, excellent linearity is observed during the growth phase between the dielectric permittivity and the hyphal length as determined microscopically.
