Cell growth and protein production were carried out in two different cultivation system; 500 ml spinner flask and 500 ml shake flask with working volume of 200 ml.... In this experiment, the agitation speeds of the spinner flask were set at speed range of 60 rpm [revolutions per minute] to 120 rpm.... The spinner flask feature a bulb-shape glass impeller that rotates from a fixed position at the center of the flask, which provides a slow and gentle orbital movement for the suspension culture. Meanwhile the shake flasks were shaken using an incubator shaker.... The agitations provided by spinner flask give better cell growth and higher protein production when compared to shake flasks. 3, record 1, English, - shake%20flask
