Cells from Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench. (Asteraceae), Exacum affine Balf. f. (Gentianaceae), Melittis melissophyllum L. (Lamiaceae), Ruta graveolens L. and Ruta graveolens ssp. divaricata (Tenore) Gams. (Rutaceae) agitating cultures perform a biotransformation reaction on exogenously supplied hydroquinone into its β-D-glucoside – arbutin, product with valuable medicinal and cosmetic properties. The maximum content of arbutin (determined by HPLC) in the biomass from investigated cultures is 4.01; 3.44; 1.79; 2.48 and 5.07 g/100 g d.w., respectively. Nothing but Ammi majus L. (Apiaceae) cultures contain trace amounts of the product. Arbutin is accumulated in cells; it is occasionally found in media only in vestigial amounts. In most of the investigated cultures the efficiency of the biotransformation process is about 60 %.
