Scutellaria baicalensis is a popular traditional plant in Chinese medicine. Widely distributed biologically active substances of Scutellaria baicalensis are flavonoids (baicalin, baicalein, vogonin and vogonoside), which are responsible for the antitumor activity. Their antitumor effect is due to the absorption of oxidative radicals, the weakening of the activity of NF-kB (nuclear factor-kB), the suppression of the expression of the COX-2 gene and the regulation of the cell cycle. In addition, baicalein, baicalin, and vogonin showed strong antioxidant activity. The root culture in vitro of the medicinal plant Scutellaria baicalensis is characterized by intensive growth. The growth index at the end of the cultivation cycle was 40. The growth curve has a standard S-shape, with pronounced growth phases. The stationary phase was observed from 5-7 weeks of cultivation. The root culture growth index was 22.

The authors selected the parameters for obtaining root cultures in vitro Medicago sativa. The number of cell culture lines studied is 15. The duration of the growth cycle is less than 50 days. The number of processed explants is 75. The growth characteristics of root cultures of in vitro purple alfalfa (Medicago sativa) were studied. The growth index for the dry biomass of the in vitro root culture of alfalfa was 31. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the composition of BAS in the biomass of the obtained root cultures of in vitro alfalfa (Medicago sativa) was carried out. Unique biologically active substances (not previously described for alfalfa) were identified.): apigenin, naringenin, myricetin, chrysoeriol, coumestrol, and scopoletin. Rational parameters of isolation of individual BAS from the extract of root cultures of in vitro alfalfa (Medicago sativa) were selected. The degree of extraction of individual BAS is 80%. Methods of purification of individual BAS Medicago sativa have been developed. The degree of purification of individual BAS is 95%.

Turnip (latin Brassica rapa) is a herbaceous plant from the genus Cruciferous. The root crop is a traditional product that has been producing in Russia since ancient times. This unpretentious herbaceous plant contains many different nutrients. The composition of turnips determines its value as a dietary product. From an economic point of view, the root crop, along with broccoli, can act as a source of biologically active substances like sulforaphane. Processing root crops using extraction will expand the scope of its application. The work presents a laboratory way for producing an extract of sulforaphane, followed by its quantitative determination from turnip varieties Petrovskaya-1. It was shown that the content of sulforaphane turnip extract (0.83 ± 0.03) mg in 1 cm3 extract. Next, the antioxidant ability of the extract was determined. A spectrophotometric study of antioxidant activity using a model adrenaline autooxidation reaction (in vitro) revealed that the aqueous extract has a pronounced antioxidant effect. It was registered that at an exposure time of 5 min, the AOA of the extract was 49.0%, at 10 min it was 13.0%. We can say that the processing of root crops is promising as a source of biologically active substances.

Настоящая работа затрагивает тему оптимизации процесса экстракции биологически активных веществ из биомассы корневых культур in vitro лекарственных растений Сибирского федерального округа, а именно шлемника байкальского, шлемника обыкновенного и лапчатки белой. Параметры, которые влияли на ход процесса, были выбраны следующие: продолжительность процесса, температура экстракции и гидромодуль. В ходе эксперимента выяснилось, что для максимального выхода экстракта шлемника байкальского необходимо соблюдать следующие параметры: соотношение объема растворителя, наиболее эффективного в данном случае 70 %-ного этанола, к массе исходного сырья 1:10, продолжительность процесса 60 мин, температура 50 °С. Максимальный выход биологически активных веществ из шлемника обыкновенного будет достигаться при температуре экстракции 60 °С в течение 60 мин с использованием 70 %-ного этанола в качестве органического растворителя в соотношении к высушенному образцу 1:10. Оптимальные параметры извлечения активных веществ из лапчатки белой: соотношение экстрагента, в качестве которого выступает диэтиловый эфир, к исходному сырью 1:20, продолжительность 60 мин при температуре экстракции 40 °С. Извлечение экстрактов из культур in vitro позволит сохранить популяцию растений, произрастающих в естественных условиях. This work touches on the topic of optimization of the process of extraction of biologically active substances from the biomass of root cultures in vitro of medicinal plants of the Siberian Federal District, namely Scutellaria galericulata, Scutellaria Baicalensis, Potentilla alba . The parameters that influenced the course of the process were chosen as follows: process duration, extraction temperature and hydronic module. In the course of the experiment, it turned out that for the maximum yield of the Scutellaria Baicalensis extract, the following parameters must be observed: the ratio of the volume of the solvent, the most effective in this case 70% ethanol, to the weight of the feedstock 1:10, the duration of the process is 60 min, the temperature is 50 °C. The maximum yield of biologically active substances from Scutellaria galericulata will be achieved at an extraction temperature of 60 °C for 60 minutes using 70 % ethanol as an organic solvent in a ratio of 1:10 to the dried sample. The optimal parameters for the extraction of active substances from Potentilla alba are: the ratio of the extractant, which is diethyl ether, to the feedstock 1:20, lasting 60 minutes at an extraction temperature of 40 °C. The extraction of extracts from in vitro cultures will allow preserving the population of plants growing in natural conditions.

The importance of chamomile (Chamomilla recutita) inflorescence is widely known in classical and folk medicine, with the largest group of its effective constituents forming the essential oil (chamazulene, a-bisabolol, α-farnesene, trans-β-farnesene, spathulenol, cis/trans-en-in-dicycloethers). Among cultivated species, the Hungarian BK-2 contains more chamazulene in its essential oil than the German Degumil type, which is mainly cultivated for its a-bisabolol. Both components have important antiinflammatory activities. Wild populations can be easily distinguished from cultivated ones by their high amount of bisaboloides, particularly the flower of Hungarian Szabadkígyós wild type, which contained on average 48 % of the biologically active (-)-a-bisabolol. The population of Szabadkígyós has good salt tolerance which is important owing to global warming, because the proportion of saline areas is increasing worldwide. To keep the genome of Szabadkígyós having high (-)-a-bisabolol content, Szőke and research team used biotechnological methods. Sterile plantlets, were infected by Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains #A-4, #15834, #R-1601. The hairy root clones possessing the best growing and biosynthetical potential were multiplied for phytochemical investigations. Pharmacologically important compounds of their essential oils were followed in great detail. The amount of in vitro cultured terpenoids and polyin compounds was compared with that of in vivo plants. GC-MS studies showed that sterile chamomile cultures generated the most important terpenoid and polyin compounds characteristics of the mother plant. Berkheyaradulene, geranyl-isovalerat and cedrol as new components were identified in these sterile cultures. The main component of hairy root cultures (D/400, D/1, D/100 and Sz/400) was tr-b-farnesene and in addition one new compound: a-selinene was identified. Hairy root culture originated from chamomile collected in Szabadkígyós was intensive increased the essential oil content and pharmacological active compounds: (-) -α-bisabolol and β-eudesmol was also synthetized in large quantity. Furthermore, in vitro organized cultures were made from this population to obtain propagation material containing numerous active substances.

In our country, wormwood ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) may cause serious problems. Nearly 5 million hectares of agricultural area was infected with ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia), which is believed useless weed. Allergological point of view, most problematic weeds adventive. However, many physiologically very beneficial compound also included, those with the effects have been known also by the Indians. On this basis, herbs can be thought of as ragweed. Our goal was to present that the ragweed contains antifungal active substances as well. In this paper we tested the biological activity of the extracts against Alternaria alternata F.00750 in vitro. We related based on our examination that ragweed contains biologically active agents, by which it is hampered the reproduction of the Alternaria alternata. The minimum effective concentration was 300 mg extract in a Petri dish, which was three days inhibited the growth of fungus. Full fungicidal effect was observed over dose 525 mg.
