L Y QUINN. Appl Microbiol. 1962 Nov.

Abstract

An apparatus is described which has been used for successful continuous culture of the ciliates from the rumen of cattle. Automatic control of feeding rate, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, temperature, stirring rate, aeration rate, salinity, and volume of the culture is provided for, using standard commercial equipment, whenever possible. The operation of this apparatus is described.
