A defoamer for fermentation is evaluated in the vessel and paid for after it. Filter capacity, separation behaviour and residual levels are all decided by a choice usually made on knockdown speed alone. Compatibility testing stops at the end of fermentation. Your process does not. The antifoam that controlled your foam is still in the … <a href="https://www.safic-alcan.com/en-it/industry-articles/the-antifoam-is-gone-from-the-culture-media-is-it-gone-from-your-product/">Continued</a>

Antifoam agents in fermentation are selected on knockdown speed and dose economy. Their effect on the culture itself is rarely tested, and it is the variable most likely to explain a titre you cannot account for.
