Cultured cells of Phytolacca americana, which had been cultivated in the dark, biotransformed resveratrol to pinostilbene and pterostilbene 4'-O-β-d-glucoside, together with the 3- and 4'-O-β-D-glucosides of resveratrol. Pinostilbene was converted into its 3-O-β-d-glucoside and pterostilbene. In addition, the cells transformed piceatannol to its 4'-O-β-d-glucoside, isorhapontigenin, and isorhapontigenin 3-O-β-D-glucoside.
