24 shake flasks in one hand: µ-Flasks are easy, predictive, and space saving! µ-Flasks are advanced, reuseable, well-plate closures that convert well-plates into shake flasks. With µ-Flasks, it is easy to have hundreds of flasks in a single-shaker incubator. They tackle the work you already do and require less space to do it — µ-Flasks are shake flasks made easy.

Comparing Shaker Flasks With A Single-Use Bioreactor For Growing Yeast Seed Cultures
By Lynn Peacock and Kevin A. Auton, BioProcess International
Pichia pastoris is a species of methylotrophic yeast that is widely used for protein expression both in academia and the biotechnology industry. A number of properties make it suited for this task. Pichia has a high growth rate, and it can grow on simple, inexpensive media. It can also be grown in either shaker flasks or bioreactors, which makes it suitable for both small- and large-scale protein production.
