| Abstract: | The use of plant cells for the production of biochemicals represents a new area of biotechnological exploration. The techniques envisioned for industrial processes are related to those developed for microorganisms and a strong emphasis should be placed on immobilized cell systems. This review examines the spectrum of products that are synthesized by higher plants and the immobilization techniques that are suited to entrap plant cells from suspension culture. Different reactor configurations are described. Both packed-bed reactors with alginate-entrapped cells and hollow-fibre cartridges with sequestered cells have utility for the continuous production of biochemicals. |
