Abstract

The influence of ultrasonic waves on suspension plant cell cultures (e.g., petunia and carrot) has been investigated. The dependency of viability, cell density, miototic division, and regeneration, on the controlled acoustic parameters’ frequency of sound, energy density, treatment time, and wave type, is presented. Special focus is on the investigation of the influence of propagating plane waves, because these allow a spatially almost invariable acoustic pressure amplitude and, as a consequence, the same acoustic parameter values for all cells in the treated suspension volume.
