Metabolism of Xenobiotics by Plant Cell Cultures

  • Conference paper
Plant Tissue Culture and Its Bio-technological Application

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

Millions of tons of pesticides and polychlorinated and polycyclic hydrocarbons are released into the environment every year. It seems to be important to make sure that these xenobiotics can be degraded, but knowledge in this area is still rather incomplete. For example, virtually no studies on the plant metabolism of DDT1 or of polycyclic hydrocarbons have been carried out so far. Knowledge about the toxi-cological, and other properties of plant metabolites of xenobiotics is of special interest because plants are at the beginning of food chains and because of the consumption of a variety of plants by man.
