- The study focused on creating a sustainable alternative method for callus culture of Cereus hildmannianus to produce and analyze phenolic compounds.
- Traditional cultivation used agar in MS medium, while the alternative used cotton and filter paper with the same medium, showing successful callus development over 8 weeks.
- The extracted phenolic compounds were identified and quantified, with the highest concentrations and greatest bioactivity found in the dichloromethane fractions, indicating potential for developing natural antitumor products.
