Abstract: | Cell suspension cultures of Muscat de Frontignan grapes Vitis vinifera L. are able to convert citral (a mixture of neral and geranial) into the corresponding monoterpenic alcohols, nerol and geraniol. The geraniol formed is esterified into geranyl acetate. Bioconversion of nerol or geraniol added alone to the cell suspension was also studied. Interconversions between these different monoterpenic compounds are described and discussed. |
