Secondary Metabolism in Cell Cultures of Some Terpenoid-Indole Alkaloid Producing Plants

  • Conference paper
Natural Products Chemistry III

Abstract

In the past years it has been proven that large scale culturing of plant cells is feasible. The production of shikonin (1) and of ginseng biomass (2) are examples of a commercial scale production with plant cell cultures.
