Stresses which arise in bioreactors can influence process performanceconsiderably. Recent molecular biological investigations indicate that stresscaused by fluid dynamical effects and extreme values of process variables andtoxic substances cause similar responses in the cells. These molecularfundamentals as well as quantitative evaluation of fluid dynamical stressesand their effects on microorganisms animal and plant cells and proteins aretreated in this volume. TOCW.
