A Review on Taxol Production through Biotechnological Approaches
Taxol is a very important anticancer drug which was first isolated from Yew plant (Taxus spp.). However, Taxol supply by extraction from natural sources, has several limitations, and cannot meet current market's demands. Therefore, it seems necessary to use alternative production methods. Producing Taxol through biotechnological approaches is among the main options which have some advantages su...

متن کاملNano-Elicitation of Secondary Pharmaceutical Metabolites in Plant Cells: A Review
In recent years, metabolism researches using nanomaterials have been focusing on human and animal cells, and therefore very limited data are available about influence of nanomaterials on biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in plant cells. Plants produce different types of secondary metabolites including terpenoids, phenolics, tannins, and alkaloids, which are known to act as vital mediators f...
متن کاملMicrobial Secondary Metabolites Production and Strain Improvement
Microbial secondary metabolites are compounds produced mainly by actinomycetes and fungi, usually late in the growth cycle (idiophase). Although antibiotics are the best known secondary metabolites (SM), there are others with an enormous range of other biological activities mainly in fields like: pharmaceutical and cosmetics, food, agriculture and farming. These include compounds with anti-infl...
