Production of lithospermic acid B and rosmarinic acid in hairy root cultures of Salvia miltiorrhiza
TL;DR: Hairy root cultures of Salvia miltiorrhiza were established by infecting sterile plantlets with Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC 15834, and the transformation was proved by direct detection of the inserted T-DNA by the polymerase chain reaction.

Tanshinone production in Ti-transformed Salvia miltiorrhiza cell suspension cultures
TL;DR: It was found that the B5 mediums supported the best growth while the 6,7-V medium promoted tanshinone production in the transformed cell suspension cultures, and light was found to have an inhibitory effect on tansinone biosynthesis.
63
Effects of methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid on cell growth and cryptotanshinone formation in Ti transformed Salvia miltiorrhiza cell suspension cultures
TL;DR: Exogenous methyl jasmonate or salicylic acid when applied alone failed to induce cryptotanshinone (a phytoalexin) formation in Ti-transformed Salvia miltiorrhiza cell suspension cultures, while DMSO was superior to ethanol as a solvent for introducing MJ to the cell cultures.
34
Production of rosmarinic acid and lithospermic acid B in Ti transformed Salvia miltiorrhiza cell suspension cultures
TL;DR: A linear relationship with an intercept between the dry cell weight increase and the medium conductivity decrease was observed which may be used for monitoring cell growth rate and the lower performance of cell growth in the bioreactor was due to the poor mixing of the culture.
33
Simultaneous Determination of Rosmarinic Acid, Lithospermic Acid B, and Related Phenolics in Salvia miltiorrhiza by HPLC
TL;DR: In this paper, a gradient reversed-phase HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous separation and determination of rosmarinic acid, lithospermic acid B, caffeic acid, and other phenolic compounds.
