Compuestos Volátiles Producidos in Vitro por Callos de Solanum quitoense Lam. (Solanaceae)

Vegetal biotechnology has been used, in the non-conventional sources search, in order to obtain volatiles compounds. This study describes the naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) different concentrations effects, on the callus from Solanum quitoense Lam. induction, in the volatile organic compounds production. The volatile composition was analyzed by a gas chromatography, coupled to a mass spectrometry on a callus cultured during 30, 40 and 50 days, in which were subject to a solid phase micro extraction (HS-SPME) or a liquid-liquid extraction, in which 30 volatile compounds were identified. Green and sweet sensorial notes were detected in the callus cultures.
