백화사설초의 현탁세포배양에 의한 oleanolic acid 생산

Oleanolic acid is a triterpenoid compound that exists in Oldenlandia diffusa. Recently, oleanolic acid has been noted for antitumor effect. Application of both plant growth regulators, 2,4-D and kinetin, was found to be essential for the induction of callus and suspension cells. Optimum induction condition for callus and suspension cells of Oldenlandia diffusa was determined to be 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1 mg/L kinetin. Chromatographic separation of oleanolic acid from its derivatives was achieved using Rexchrom S5-100-ODS column. The retention time of oleanolic acid was 12.6 min and the specific content of oleanolic acid was 0.41 mg/g dry weight.

백화사설초에 함유되어 있는 oleanolic acid를 세포배양을 이용하여 생산하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. Oleanolic acid를 생산하기 위해, 백화사설초의 캘러스와 현탁세포를 2,4-D 0.5 mg/L, kinetin 0.1 mg/L가 포함된 SH 배지에서 유도하였다. Oleanolic acid의 분석을 위해, Rexchrom S5-100-ODS column을 사용한 HPLC를 이용하였다. 분석 결과, oleanolic acid의 retention time은 12.6분 이었고, 그 양은 0.41 mg/g dry weight였다.
