Abstract
AbstractTo increase the process productivity and product quality of bioprocesses, the in‐line monitoring of critical process parameters is highly important. For monitoring substrate, metabolite, and product concentrations, Raman spectroscopy is a commonly used Process Analytical Technology (PAT) tool that can be applied in‐situ and non‐invasively. However, evaluating bioprocess Raman spectra with a robust state‐of‐the‐art statistical model requires effortful model calibration. In the present study, we in‐line monitored a glucose to ethanol fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) using Raman spectroscopy in combination with the physics‐based Indirect Hard Modeling (IHM) and showed successfully that IHM is an alternative to statistical models with significantly lower calibration effort. The IHM prediction model was developed and calibrated with only 16 Raman spectra in total, which did not include any process spectra. Nevertheless, IHM's root mean square errors of prediction (RMSEPs) for glucose (3.68 g/L) and ethanol (1.69 g/L) were comparable to the prediction quality of similar studies that used statistical models calibrated with several calibration batches. Despite our simple calibration, we succeeded in developing a robust model for evaluating bioprocess Raman spectra.
