The stoichiometry of maintenance and carbohydrate storage as well as ajmalicine production kinetics of non-dividing Catharanthus roseus cells in the second stage of a two-stage batch process were investigated. For the mathematical description of these processes, a simple structured model with 5 para
The uptake of carbohydrates and nitrate by Catharanthus roseus cell suspension cultures was studied in relation to biomass production in shake flasks. Biomass production was similar when using either 6, 12, 18, or 24 mM nitrate as the nitrogen source and 20 g L-' sucrose as the carbon source. In all
## Abstract __Catharanthus roseus__ cells suspended in production medium showed the presence of four __Aspidosperma__βtype alkaloids, however, no vindoline. Cells grown in media with the pH adjusted to 7.0 produced 3.3 mg total alkaloids/g dry weight. At pH 5.0, 1.7 mg of alkaloid/g dry weight was
