OREANDA-NEWS Scientists of the Timiryazev Academy and the N.V. Tsitsin Main Botanical Garden of the Russian Academy of Sciences want to patent the planting material of the Arctic princessberry — plants with an increased content of secondary metabolites in microclones. This was reported in the press service of the academy, RIA Novosti reports.
"Microclones of the Arctic principality with an increased content of secondary metabolites — substances that have a beneficial effect on the human immune system — are the result of many years of joint research," the press service reported.
The Arctic princess is characterized by a high content of useful substances that have a beneficial effect on the human immune system. The academy noted that substances accumulate in all organs of the plant. In particular, knyazhenica leaves contain flavonoids, ascorbic acid, tannins and other substances that help the immune system and protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. The created technology allows you to control the process of accumulation of valuable substances at the germination stage. This allows you to regulate the biosynthetic potential of the princess before the period of vegetative growth and fruiting. "This was achieved as a result of elicitation (stimulation of synthesis and accumulation of useful substances through the use of factors of various nature — approx. "Tapes.ru") of cell cultures by chemical factors," the academy noted.
The patent application has already been filed. In case of a positive decision, the new technology can be used in pharmaceuticals. The press service believes that the development will also be an incentive for growing this berry. Now the Arctic princess is already used in the production of biologically active additives.
In September, Medical Xpress magazine wrote that scientists from the University of Colorado School of Medicine recognized ginger dietary supplements as beneficial for people with autoimmune diseases.
