Definition

material entity with a nutrient feed role

Semi-Formal Definition:

every instance of ‘nutrient feed’ is defined as exactly an instance of ‘material entity’ that ‘has role’ some ‘nutrient feed role’

Explanatory Notes

See the expanded definition under the corresponding role class. The term is formalized here as a defined class by referring to its corresponding role class and exists primarily for ontological modeling and implementation convenience.

Examples

• concentrated glucose feed pumped to maintain glucose above a target setpoint; galactose feed added to modulate glycosylation; feed solution containing glucose, amino acids, vitamins, trace metals, and lipids added during cultivation to support high cell density and balanced metabolism
