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.

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.

Plants are source of many high-value secondary compounds used as drugs, food additives, flavors, pigments and pesticides. The production of these compounds in nature faces to many difficulties because of the dependence on weather, soil … Furthermore, these compounds are usually limited by species, periods of growth or stress. The utilization of plant cells in vitro for the secondary compounds has gained increasing attention over past decades. However, the yield is still low, probably due to the degree of cell differentiation. Therefore, root culture is focused on research as an alternative to cell cultures to produce secondary compounds because of high rate proliferation, great potential in the production with high and stable yields. Hairy roots and adventitious roots have a high ability to biosynthesize secondary compounds in vitro with high and fairly stable in yield in comparison with plant cell suspension cultures. Nowadays, it is feasible to expand the scale of root cultures in bioreactors, which makes it possible to produce secondary compounds on an industrial scale.
