CURRENT PROBLEMS

- Inability to establish proper tissue cultures from roots.

- Long growth time needed to achieve enough biomass.

- Aggregates formation in absence of agitation.

- Goal biomass not always achieved before proceeding withthe elicitation.

CONCLUSIONS

The process was successfully described using all the current information available.

It would be necessary to conduct experiments in detail to test whether the process can be put into practice.

Further investigation on the improvement of Ginkgo biloba cell cultures is needed to achieve commercial viability.

bilobalide

The main secondary metabolites of ginkgobiloba are:- Flavonoids

Such as quercetin, kaempherol & myricetin- Terpene-lactones:

Ginkgolides A & B and Bilobalide

Unlike the flavonoids, this terpene-lactones areexclusively found in this tree, giving itsingularity and being the reason of its uniquemedicinal proprieties.

BIOTECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS

- Screening and selection of calli

Ex: white calli with higher division rates.

- Optimization of culture conditions

Ex: light conditions and agitation intensity.

- Medium supplementation

Ex: sucrose & biosynthetic precursors (GPP, HMG-CoA).

- Elicitation

Ex: abiotic (NaCl, SNP) & biotic (MeJA or microorganisms).

- Genetic engineering

Ex: Increase the expression of HMGR-CoA (not tested yet).
