Elicitation technique have been recommended as an efficient method of large producing plant beneficiary compounds in in vitro plant at short period of time.

The research method started with axenic culture establishment by surface sterilization, followed by the optimization of culture medium for production of differentiated plant tissue. For callus and cell suspension, the culture medium and condition had been optimized. A comparison on bioactive compound and antioxidant activities between regenerated shoots, roots, callus and cell were done.
