Chemoprotectants Shoots and Seeds of Cruciferae

摘要

Chemoprotectant precursor compositions provided by Seed Sprouts and cabbage, and Methods for the preparation thereof.The Treatment of the aqueous extracts of the seed Sprouts and cabbage with adsorbents increases substantially the relation of certain compounds (alkyl highly chemoprotectants glucosinolate precursors such as glucoraphanin, also known as sulforaphane glucosinolate ) to unwanted compounds such as indole glucosinolates (e.g. 4 - hidroxiglucobrassicina).The Method provides an extract that has a relationship of glucoraphanin 4 - hidroxiglucobrassicina approximately 70 or higher. The resulting extract presents an improved color and smell and can be Dry or use directly as an Additive in a variety of Food Products.
