ABSTRACT:
A new process for the production of tocopherols by tissue culture, which comprises (1) preparing a callus of a plant Carthamus tinctorius, (2) inoculating the callus into a synthetic nutrient medium and culturing the callus to produce tocopherols, and (3) recovering the tocopherols. The tocopherols thus produced are minaly .alpha.-tocopherol, which has the strongest vitamin E activity among tocopherol analogs.
