Method for the production of bioproducts

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the production of a biological product, the method comprising (i) maintaining a first cell suspension culture of photosynthetic non-algal plant cells under conditions that include the provision of light and carbon dioxide that allow the cultured cells to photosynthesise and thereby generate and release sugars, typically mono- and/or di-saccharides (for example glucose, sucrose, and/or fructose), into the surrounding culture medium; and (ii) maintaining a second cell culture in the presence of the sugar generated by the first cell suspension culture to allow growth of the second culture and the production of a biological product.
