Selecting the right antifoam is critical in fermentation processes. While effective foam control is essential, microbial compatibility is equally important to ensure microbial growth, productivity, and process performance are not compromised.
Join this technical webinar to learn how Momentive's SAG™, Esca™, and BC Simethicone antifoam technologies were evaluated across a wide range of microorganisms commonly used in pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and biochemical fermentations.
Testing demonstrated broad microbial compatibility, with no significant growth inhibition observed across tested strains, supporting their safe and effective use in live fermentation systems.
What you'll learn:
Ensure microbial compatibility
Improve foam control
Achieve regulatory compliance
Why attend?
Understand the impact of antifoam selection on microbial performance
Review real compatibility testing data
Explore solutions suitable for a broad range of fermentation applications
