Abstract

Lactoalbumin hydrolysate (LH) at 100 mg L−1 with methyl jasmonate (MJ) at 2 mg L−1 synergistically stimulated ginsenoside accumulation in Panax quinquefolium cells compared with 100 mg L−1 LH. Combination elicitors led to higher ginsenoside productivity (45.93 mg L−1) than single treatment of 100 mg L−1 LH (31.37 mg L−1). This present result will be helpful in providing a tool for enhancing the productivity of ginsenoside by Panax quinquefolium cell cultures on a commercial scale.
