The Measurement of the Aeration of Culture Media Wise, W. S.,, 5, 167-177 (1951), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/00221287-5-1-167, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1350-0872, abstract= SUMMARY: The aeration of culture media can be measured in terms of ø L (defined below) which is dependent on rate of air flow, agitation, etc. Two methods of measuring ø L are given, based on the polarographic estimation of dissolved oxygen. For penicillin and streptomycin fermentations there is a correlation between the amount of antibiotic produced and ø L., language=, type=
