Biorreactores, Parámetros operativos, Diseño, Optimización, BiotecnologíaResumen
Los biorreactores juegan un papel crucial en la producción biotecnológica al influir directamente en la regulación metabólica de los procesos fermentativos. La optimización de parámetros como el pH y la transferencia de oxígeno permite mejorar la eficiencia y el rendimiento de los bioprocesos, lo que resalta la importancia de desarrollar una planificación avanzada en el diseño y la operación de los biorreactores para optimizar la síntesis de productos. A lo largo del tiempo, la innovación en el campo de los biorreactores ha sido ampliamente explorada, sin embargo, no se ha realizado una revisión cronológica exhaustiva. Este artículo busca abordar esa brecha a través de un análisis de la evolución de las tecnologías enfocadas en biorreactores, utilizando el marco del árbol de la ciencia. Con este fin, el estudio se basa en búsquedas sistemáticas en las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus, accedidas a través de las bibliotecas universitarias. Estos hallazgos proporcionan una base para que nuevos investigadores y desarrolladores diseñen sistemas de alto rendimiento con un impacto práctico y significativo, respaldado por información precisa y actualizada.
