Abstract
In order to understand how the nutrient elements were taken up during the cell growth as well as the production of metabolites, it was quite necessary to identify the dynamic change of metabolites and nutrients in suspension cells of Panax quinquefolium in bioreactor. In this study, dynamic accumulation of biomass and ginsenosides Re, Rb1 and polysaccharide as well as major nutrients consumption in cell suspension culture of P. quinquefolium in a 5-L stirred tank bioreactor were investigated. The dry cell weight and the contents of ginsenosides Re, Rb1 and polysaccharide reached the maximum peak simultaneously on about 21 days and the results showed that cell growth and metabolites synthesis related to nutrients consumption. For this reason, we supposed that the contents of metabolites can be increased through added nutrient at the right moment. These results provided theory reference for two-stage or continuous perfusion culture in suspension cells of P. quinquefolium in bioreactor.
