ABSTRACT
Calli cultures were established from leaves and stem of B. coccinea plantlet produced in vitro and analysed for isoflavonoid content. The quantification of 6,9,11-trihydroxy-6a,12a-dehydrorotenoid isolated from the roots of Boerhaavia coccinea P. Miller collected from its natural environment, and the same metabolite produced in callus tissue culture of the same plant are described in this paper. The rotinary quantitative HPLC analysis indicated that callus culture produced the same isoflavonoid compound found in the roots of intact wild growing plant. The amount of the secondary metabolite produced in vitro was 955.35 µg/g of dry cell weight, 2.5 times more than the highest amount concentration produced by the wild growing plant in its natural environment.
RESUMO
Cultura de calos foram estabelecidos de folhas e galhos finos de plântula de B. coccinea produzida in vitro e analisada para isoflavonóide. A quantificação do 6,9,11-triidroxi-6a,12a-desidro-rotenóide isolado das raízes de B. coccinea P Miller, coletada em seu habitat natural, e do mesmo rotenóide produzido na cultura de células estão descritos neste artigo. A análise rotineira em CLAE mostrou que a cultura de calos produziu o mesmo isoflavonóide encontrado nas raízes da planta do campo. A quantidade do metabólito secundário produzido in vitro foi de 955.35 µg/g de massa seca de callus, atingindo uma concentração de 2,5 vezes maior do que a quantidade do metabólito produzido pela planta em seu meio ambiente natural.
