    Notes: Metabolic overflow (enhanced uptake of substrate and secretion of intermediates) is a phenomenon often observed for cells grown under substrate excess. Growth inhibition by substrate and/or product is also normally found for this kind of culture. An effort is made in this work to analyze the dynamic behavior of a continuous culture subject to metabolic overflow and growth inhibition by substrate and/or product. Analysis of a model system shows that in a certain range of operating conditions three nonwashout steady state solutions are possible. Local stability analysis indicates that only two of them are stable thus leading to multiplicity and hysteresis. Further analysis of the intrinsic effects of different terms describing the metabolic overflow and growth inhibitions reveals that for the model system and the parameters considered, the combined effects of product inhibition and an enhanced formation rate of product under substrate excess cause the multiplicity and hysteresis. Growth inhibition by substrate and/or an enhanced substrate uptake appear not to be necessary conditions. The combined effects of enhanced product formation and product inhibition can also lead to unusual dynamic behavior such as a prolonged time period to reach a steady state, oscillatory transition from one steady state to another, and sustained oscillations. Using the occurrence of multiplicity and oscillation as criteria, the operating regime of a continuous culture can be divided into four domains: one with multiplicity and oscillation, one with unique steady state but possible oscillatory behavior, the other two with unique and stable steady state. The model predictions are in accordance with recent experimental results. The results presented in this work may be used as guidelines for choosing proper operating conditions of similar culture systems to avoid undesired instability and multiplicity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
