Abstract

Suspension cultures of Digitalis lanata were successfully performed in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) of 4.5% polyethylene glycol (PEG) 20,000 and 2.8% crude dextran. Cell growth in the medium containing an individual ATPS-forming polymer was inhibited due to the toxicity of PEG and a high viscosity of dextran. Formation of ATPS supported cell growth by showing a considerably decrease in viscosity and partitioning of cells into a PEG-lean dextran phase. It was found that an aqueous two-phase cultivation of plant cells in a stirred tank bioreactor could be successfully applied.
