title: Phytochemical constituents of cultured cells of Eucalyptus tereticornis SM.
abstract: Callus induced from shoot explants of Eucalyptus tereticornis was maintained for eight months on a defined MS medium. The lipid composition of the callus of E. tereticornis were β-sitosterol, stigmasterol and cholesterol. In addition, we report the presence of a flavanoidal glycoside, aglycon identified as Kaempferol. Further, the presence of 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid was established from the methanol fraction.
