Hi there,


Spinner flasks are commonly used for mammalian cell culture propogation in biotech industry. Corning makes such spinner flasks. They are typically having a magnetic driven impeller. Impeller geometry is very much different than the Fermenter Impleelers. These flasks can go as high as 5 - 10 Ls in volumes.

Hope this helps.
