Abstract
A process for the production of tripdiolide, triptolide and celastrol comprises the steps of: (a) preparing a cellular inoculum from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F; (b) inoculating a nutrient growth medium with the cellular inoculum and incubating the inoculated growth medium at 20.degree.-30.degree. C. for up to 8 weeks to produce a cellular product; (c) harvesting the cellular product from the inoculated growth medium; and (d) isolating tripdiolide, triptolide and celastrol from the cellular product and supernatant inoculated growth medium.
