Comparison of 1 mM cyproterone acetate transformation in bioreactor and shake flask. The reactions were carried out using the same batch of cells, in a resting cell format (100 g/L WCW), and the substrate was added dissolved in DMSO. The initial rate of the reaction performed in the bioreactor () showed a higher initial rate compared to the reaction performed in shake flasks (□), although the reaction in the shake flask resulted in a higher final conversion.
