[Study on the production of alkaloid by cell mass suspension culture of Fritillaria cirrhosa].

OBJECTIVE: Set up Fritillaria cirrhosa cell mass suspension culture system to rapidly screen the best culture conditions for cell mass proliferation and hormone combination. METHODS: Using MS medium as the basic medium, the impact of inoculum size, hormone combination, growth regulators for Fritillaria cirrhosa cell mass suspension culture were compared, and also the growth of cell mass at different culture conditions was compared, and the total alkaloids content in proliferative cell mass was measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Fritillaria cirrhosa grow significantly faster in cell mass suspension culture than in the solid culture. The total alkaloid content in cell mass is higher than commercial and wild bulb of Fritillaria cirrhosa. The optimal inoculum size for cell mass suspension culture is 30 g/L and the optimal culture media is MS +6-BA 2.0 mg/L + NAA 0.2 mg/L.
