The sequential order of various stages of a fermentation process are :

  • A.Fermentation, removal of waste, inoculation, downstream processing
  • B.Inoculation, downstream processing, fermentation, removal of waste
  • C.Inoculation, fermentation, downstream processing, removal of waste
  • D.Removal of waste, inoculation, fermentation, downstream processing

Answer: C

The order is inoculation, fermentation, downstream processing, removal of waste.

An industrial fermentation starts by preparing and sterilising the medium and inoculating it with the production organism. Fermentation follows in the bioreactor under controlled conditions. Downstream processing then recovers and purifies the product, and finally the spent broth and biomass are treated and disposed of as waste.

The other orders put fermentation before inoculation, downstream processing before fermentation, or waste removal first, none of which can happen.
