Experimental optimization of a real time fed-batch fermentation process using Markov decision process.

abstract：:A model for the prediction of protein partition coefficients in aqueous two-phase systems has been developed. This model accounts for both charge-independent and electrostatic effects. The determination of nonelectrostatic effects was based on the model of Eiteman and Gainer for uncharged solutes while the electrostat...
