Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Botany, Elicitor, Methyl jasmonate and Cell culture. His work on Medicinal plants as part of general Botany study is frequently connected to Ginsenoside, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Javier Palazon combines subjects such as Baccatin III and Tissue culture with his study of Elicitor.

His Methyl jasmonate research includes themes of Centella and Secondary metabolite. The concepts of his Cell culture study are interwoven with issues in Taxus × media, Taxus, Paclitaxel, Chromatography and Stereochemistry. His Taxus research incorporates elements of Suspension culture and Callus.

His most cited work include:

  • Steroidal lactones from Withania somnifera, an ancient plant for novel medicine. (325 citations)
  • Production of the anticancer drug taxol in Taxus baccata suspension cultures: A review (192 citations)
  • Elicitation, an Effective Strategy for the Biotechnological Production of Bioactive High-Added Value Compounds in Plant Cell Factories. (191 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Javier Palazon mainly investigates Botany, Biochemistry, Cell culture, Taxus and Methyl jasmonate. His work deals with themes such as Transgene, Agrobacterium, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Horticulture and Solanaceae, which intersect with Botany. Much of his study explores Biochemistry relationship to Callus.

His Cell culture research incorporates themes from Cell, Taxus × media, Stereochemistry, Bioreactor and Secondary metabolism. He has included themes like Biotechnology, Paclitaxel, Baccatin III and Metabolic engineering in his Taxus study. His studies deal with areas such as Elicitor and Resveratrol as well as Methyl jasmonate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (43.87%)
  • Biochemistry (43.23%)
  • Cell culture (25.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (43.23%)
  • Cell culture (25.16%)
  • Botany (43.87%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Javier Palazon focuses on Biochemistry, Cell culture, Botany, Coronatine and Elicitor. His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Taxus × media and Taxus. His Taxus study incorporates themes from Paclitaxel, Baccatin III and Callus.

His research integrates issues of Cell, Biotechnology, Secondary metabolite, Secondary metabolism and Vitis vinifera in his study of Cell culture. When carried out as part of a general Botany research project, his work on Lignan is frequently linked to work in Withaferin A, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cultivar, Hyoscyamine, Tropane, Microbiology and Tropane alkaloid.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Silybum marianum cell cultures stably transformed with Vitis vinifera stilbene synthase accumulate t-resveratrol in the extracellular medium after elicitation with methyl jasmonate or methylated β-cyclodextrins (18 citations)
  • Biotechnological Production of Pharmaceuticals and Biopharmaceuticals in Plant Cell and Organ Cultures. (15 citations)
  • The effects of salicylic acid and glucose on biochemical traits and taxane production in a Taxus baccata callus culture. (12 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Gene

Biochemistry, Methyl jasmonate, Botany, Plant cell and Callus are his primary areas of study. His Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Cell culture and Tropane. His research integrates issues of Silybum marianum, Gene expression and Resveratrol in his study of Methyl jasmonate.

His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transgene and Biosynthesis. His Plant cell research incorporates elements of Salicylic acid, Osmotic shock, Viability assay, Dry weight and Plant secondary metabolism. His research on Callus also deals with topics like

  • Taxus, which have a strong connection to Baccatin III,
  • Tissue culture which connect with Elicitor.
