title: [Biotransformation of furannoligularenone by hairy root cultures of Polygonum multiflorum].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the biotransformation of furannoligularenone by hairy roots of Polygonum multiflorum.
  
  
  METHODS
  Furannoligularenone was added to the medium of hairy roots of P. multiflorum after precultured for 9 days, then they were co-cultured. The products were isolated and identified on the basis of their physical chemical properties and spectroscopic data. The T-C curve of biotransformation was investigated with HPLC.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The hairy roots of P. multiflorum transformed the substrate to two products, 3-oxo-eremophila-1,7(11)-dien-12,8-olide(II) and 3-oxo-8-hydroxy-eremophila-1,7(11)-dien-12,8-olide(III). After co-cultured for 3 days, the mole conversion ratio of the substrate reached the highest (27.2%).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It's possible to biotransform furannoligularenone by hairy roots of P. multiflorum.
