Abstract: Alginates can be used to elaborate hydrogels, and their properties depend on the molecular weight (MW) and the guluronic (G) and mannuronic (M) composition. In this study, the MW and G/M ratio were evaluated in cultures of Azotobacter vinelandii to 3 and 30 L scales at different oxygen transfer rates (OTRs) under diazotrophic conditions. An increase in the maximum OTR (OTRmax) improved the alginate production, reaching 3.3 ± 0.2 g L−1. In the cultures conducted to an OTR of 10.4 mmol L−1 h−1 (500 rpm), the G/M increased during the cell growth phase and decreased during the stationary phase; whereas, in the cultures at 19.2 mmol L−1 h−1 was constant throughout the cultivation. A higher alginate MW (520 ± 43 kDa) and G/M ratio (0.86 ± 0.01) were obtained in the cultures conducted at 10.4 mmol L−1 h−1. The OTR as a criterion to scale up alginate production allowed to replicate the concentration and the alginate production rate; however, it was not possible reproduce the MW and G/M ratio. Under a similar specific oxygen uptake rate (qO2) (approximately 65 mmol g−1 h−1) the alginate MW was similar (approximately 365 kDa) in both scales. The evidences revealed that the qO2 can be a parameter adequate to produce alginate MW similar in two bioreactor scales. Overall, the results have shown that the alginate composition could be affected by cellular respiration, and from a technological perspective the evidences contribute to the design process based on oxygen consumption to produce alginates defined.
