Production of Phenolic Compounds in Cell Suspensions of Arctic Bramble and Cloudberry
Phenolic compounds are of interest for various industries, and can be found in differing qualities and quantities between plant species, with particularly high concentrations observed in Nordic berries. The natural yields of these berries are highly vulnerable to environmental conditions, and conseq...

Phenolic compounds are of interest for various industries, and can be found in differing qualities and quantities between plant species, with particularly high concentrations observed in Nordic berries. The natural yields of these berries are highly vulnerable to environmental conditions, and consequently methods for producing these valuable compounds in bioreactors are being investigated. However, the phenolic content in all cultures is highly dependent on growth conditions and the used cell line, and the synthesis pathways leading to these compounds are poorly understood. Although the profiles of phenolic contents for certain berry species have been well characterized in literature, the profiles for cell suspension lines are largely unknown. Cell suspension cultures have significant advantages for production of phenolic compounds over traditional agricultural methods, and more research on the cell suspensions’ production capabilities and a better understanding of the biosynthesis pathways is needed before utilization in the industries can be achieved.
