Correct answer is (b) 500 L

The best explanation: The minimum volume of vessel required to produce 1 kg of antibody by batch fermentation is 500 L. It is used in the production of IgG antibodies from mice. 7 L is required to carry out fed-batch fermentation and 350 L vessel volume is required for continuous fermentation.
