Effect of activated charcoal and subculture rates on a two-phase culture strategy involving biomass accumulation followed by phenolic production in date palm cell suspension cultures.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) is an important medicinal plant rich in a wide range of phenolic compounds variety of high antioxidant values. To enhance the production of phenolic compounds in cell suspension cultures, this study examines the impact of activated charcoal (AC) and subculture rates on biomass accumulation and phenolic content.

Results

Indicate that culture medium with or without activated charcoal (AC) and subculture rates have a significant effect on the synthesis of phenolic compounds and the accumulation of biomass. The culture medium without AC showed a substantial increase in the synthesis of phenolic compounds without loss of biomass accumulation. Specifically, the intracellular phenolic content in somatic embryos increased more than threefol
