Abstract

A Catharanthus roseus cell line was cultured in a 14-l bioreactor. Total alkaloid production decreased more than 80% while scaling up this cell line from 250 ml batch cultures to the bioreactor. However, the subsequent application of an osmotic stress and 1 mM trans-cinnamic acid, which inhibits the synthesis of phenolic compounds, restored the original alkaloid amounts.
