Greenhouse Horticultural Valorisation - SHIVA Project

Horticultural plant valorisation through advanced cultivation and metabolomic analysis for cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications

or

Detail description

The SHIVA programme (2017–2019) identified horticultural plant species with high potential for cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications using chromatographic techniques. Focused on *Artemisia annua*, *Coleus forskohlii*, *Achillea millefolium*, *Papaver nudicaule*, *Centella asiatica*, and *Gaultheria procumbens*, the study evaluated diverse cultivation methods—hydroponics, vertical farming, NFT, LED lighting, and photoluminescent films—assessing growth and metabolite profiles via CCM, HPLC, and UHPLC. Key findings include high levels of bioactive compounds such as caffeoylquinic acids in *Achillea* and benzyl-isoquinoline alkaloids in *P. nudicaule*. A total of 860 metabolite peaks were identified across 86 samples, with significant impacts from plant variety, organ type, and cultivation system (especially LED and aeroponic). No significant annual variation was observed. Ongoing analyses for three additional species support industrial collaboration and economic evaluation, aiming to enhance greenhouse use and market opportunities for the Normandy horticultural sector.
