  • Author : J.-J. Zhong
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2003-07-01
  • ISBN : 3540453024
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Plant Cells written by J.-J. Zhong and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plants produce more than 30,000 types of chemicals, including pharmaceuticals, pigments and other fine chemicals, which is four times more than those obtain ed from microbes. Plant cell culture has been receiving great attention as an alternative for the production of valuable plant derived secondary metabolites, since it has many advantages over whole plant cultivation. However, much more research is required to enhance the culture productivity and reduce the pro cessing costs, which is the key to the commercialization of plant cell culture pro cesses. The recent achievements in related biochemical engineering studies are reviewed in Chapter 1. The effect of gaseous compounds on plant cell behavior has been little studied, and Chapter 2 focuses on these gas concentration effects (including oxygen, carbon dioxide, ethylene and others, such as volatile hor mones like methyl jasmonate) on secondary metabolite production by plant cell cultures. Two metabolites of current interest, i. e. , the antimalarial artemisinin (known as "qing hao su" in China) that is produced by Artemisia annua (sweet wormwood) and taxanes used for anticancer therapy that are produced by species of Taxus, are taken as examples. Bioprocess integration is another hot topic in plant cell culture technology. Because most of the plant secondary meta bolites are toxic to the cells at high concentrations during the culture, removal of the product in situ during the culture can lead to the enhanced productivity. Various integrated bioprocessing techniques are discussed in Chapter 3.

Book Plant Cell and Tissue Culture for the Production of Food Ingredients

Download or read book Plant Cell and Tissue Culture for the Production of Food Ingredients written by Tong-Jen Fu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial development of cultured-derived food ingredients has attracted interna tional interest. As consumers have become more health conscious in recent years, the de mand for natural food ingredients and disease-preventative phytochemicals has increased tremendously. Plant Cell and Tissue Culture provides an alternative method for controlled production of these products. A wide range of food ingredients has been shown to be pro duced in culture. Much progress has been made in advancing this technology to the point that large-scale production has become possible. This book is developed from the Symposium "Plant Cell and Tissue Culture for Food Ingredient Production" which was held on April 13-17, 1997 at the American Chemical So ciety National Meeting in San Francisco, CA. In this book, international experts in acade mia, government, and industry discuss current advances in the field of plant cell and tissue culture with special emphasis on its application for food ingredient production. Topics re lated to various aspects of plant cell and tissue culture technology are discussed, including overviews of recent advances in plant metabolic pathway studies, process development for improving yields, and bioreactor design and operation for large-scale production. Economic considerations and issues related to the commercial development of culture-derived food in gredients are discussed. Also included are the safety assessment schemes and regulatory frameworks set up by regulatory agencies around the world.

Book Secondary Products from Plant Tissue Culture

Download or read book Secondary Products from Plant Tissue Culture written by Phytochemical Society of Europe and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plants are superb synthesizers of organic compounds, producing an extensive range of products from the simple building blocks of carbon dioxide, water and inorganic ions. These secondary products are widely used in commerce, particularly the food and pharmaceutical industries. Recent advances in the techniques of plant biotechnology and genetic engineering have increased the potential of plant cell cultures as an important source of these compounds. Researchers are now beginning to understand the factors that control the expression and regulation of genes involved in the synthesis, transport, storage and metabolism of natural products. This volume contains contributions from eminent researchers who provide an up-to-date review of current work in this field and detail the exciting advances now being made.

Book Biotechnology for Medicinal Plants

Download or read book Biotechnology for Medicinal Plants written by Suman Chandra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant-based medicines play an important role in all cultures, and have been indispensable in maintaining health and combating diseases. The identification of active principles and their molecular targets from traditional medicine provides an enormous opportunity for drug development. Using modern biotechnology, plants with specific chemical compositions can be mass propagated and genetically improved for the extraction of bulk active pharmaceuticals. Although there has been significant progress in the use of biotechnology, using tissue cultures and genetic transformation to investigate and alter pathways for the biosynthesis of target metabolites, there are many challenges involved in bringing plants from the laboratory to successful commercial cultivation. This book presents the latest advances in the development of medicinal drugs, including topics such as plant tissue cultures, secondary metabolite production, metabolomics, metabolic engineering, bioinformatics and future biotechnological directions.

Book Plant Tissue Culture

Download or read book Plant Tissue Culture written by Sant Saran Bhojwani and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1986 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tremendous accumulation of information on plant tissue culture is making it extremely difficult for anyone to keep fully abreast with the literature even in his own specialised area. Therefore, the authors have compiled a bibliography of plant tissue culture as a ready reference for those who are already working in this field, and have also made the task easier for those who have become interested in plant tissue culture. The idea of preparing the bibliography was conceived after completing the book Plant Tissue Culture: Theory and Practice (Elsevier, 1982). Recognition of the various potential industrial applications of plant biotechnology has considerably enhanced the importance of plant tissue culture (PTC), as the latter holds a pivotal position in the realisation of the final goal of crop improvement via cell manipulation and multiplication. It is also becoming increasingly popular in basic studies in plant sciences. Consequently there has been an explosion in the literature on PTC since 1970. A distinctive feature of the present compilation is that it covers all aspects of PTC of higher plants, including Gymnosperms.
