Growth properties of carrot hairy root cells in various bioreactors were investigated. A turbine-blade reactor and an immobilized rotating drum reactor were found to be advantageous for the hairy root culture because of a high oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa). After 30 days of culture, 10 g/l of dry hairy root cells were obtained in both bioreactors and maximum growth rates (Vm) were found to be 0.63 and 0.61 g/l per day for the turbine-blade reactor and immobilized rotating drum reactor, respectively. Specific growth rates (micro) at various cultivation times were observed to be linearly proportional to X/kLa for both bioreactor configurations where X is the cell concentration. The estimated specific oxygen uptake rate of 0.34 mmol O2/g dry cells per hour compares fairly well with an experimental value of 0.3.
