Suspension cells of Taxus breuifolia were cultured as an alternative source of taxol and related taxanes. The effects of basal medium, sugar type, and sugar concentration on growth and taxane production were investigated. To induce taxol production, modification of medium composition was necessary.

To achieve a better understanding of taxol metabolism and accumulation in Taxus cell cultures, a T. baccata cell line growing for 20 days in a selected growth medium was treated at the beginning of the experiment with several concentrations of taxol (25, 50, 100 and 200mgL(-1)). Compared with an unt
Paclitaxcl and some of its natural analogues are readily converted to their respective nitrate esters when reacted with nitric acid in acetic anhydride at 25 Β° C in 30 minutes. Under milder conditions. partially esterified products can be prepared. The regioselectivity of these partial nitrations is
