Abstract

RODRIGUEZ HEREDIA, Dunia  and  BORY PREVEZ, Henry. USING MATLAB IN PRACTICAL LESSONS OF THE TOPIC 2 OF MICROBIOLOGY FOR CHEMICAL ENGINEERING. RTQ [online]. 2018, vol.38, n.2, pp. 310-323. ISSN 2224-6185.

The practical lessons of topic 2 of Microbiology for Chemical Engineering are related to the construction of microbial growth curves, the analysis of the influence of physical and chemical factors on growth and the calculation of kinetic parameters. In these teaching activities the student must graph several times to solve the exercises. Taking into account the above and the fact that cuban superior education requires that each subject has associated a computer program, the objective is to use MatLab as a mathematical assistant in solving the exercises of the practical lessons of topic 2 "Physiology of microorganisms" of the subject Microbiology. Three of the exercises to solve in these practical lessons are exposed, the way in which they would be solved using the MatLab is presented, and finally the advantages of working in the subject with this professional program. It is concluded that the subject is linked to the computer director program while using a programming language new for the students that serves as basis for the Control of Chemical Processes.

Keywords : Microbiology; Chemical Engineering; MatLab.
