Sprouts and microgreens which belong to the Brassicaceae family contain significantly more glucosinolates than mature vegetables, their composition often differs too. These plant growth stages can be a valuable supplement of aforementioned compounds in diet. The content proportion individual sprouts regulated by modifying length temperature cultivation, type light, use mineral compounds, elicitation, primming, cold plasma as well storage conditions. way are prepared for consumption affects yield glucosinolate hydrolysis. Genetic variation leading different responses same factors (e.g., light) makes it necessary conduct detailed studies involving species variety diversity. Heat stress appear fairly universal methods increasing content. Studies on light at wavelengths do not provide unequivocal results. Despite experiments seed soaking solutions sulfur selenium compounds), there no available literature effects chemical thermal disinfection obtained microgreens.

Glucosinolates in Human Health: Metabolic Pathways, Bioavailability, and Potential in Chronic Disease Prevention

Foods, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(6), P. 912 - 912

Published: March 7, 2025

Glucosinolates (GSLs) are sulfur-containing compounds predominantly found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, kale, and Brussels sprouts, recognized for their health-promoting properties. Upon consumption, GSLs undergo hydrolysis by the enzyme myrosinase, resulting bioactive like isothiocyanates specific indole glucosinolate degradation products, indole-3-carbinol (I3C) 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM), which contribute to a range of health benefits, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective effects. This review explores structure, metabolism, bioavailability GSLs. Recent evidence supports protective role chronic diseases, with mechanisms modulation oxidative stress, inflammation, detoxification pathways. Furthermore, innovative strategies enhance GSL bioactivity, biofortification, genetic introgression, optimized food processing methods, have been examined. These approaches seek increase content edible plants, thereby maximizing benefits. comprehensive provides insights into dietary recommendations, impact preparation, recent advances enhancement, highlighting significant potential these promoting human preventing diseases.

Sodium selenate biofortification, through seed priming, on dill microgreens grown in two different cultivation systems

Frontiers in Plant Science, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 15

Human health is significantly influenced by the quality of vegetables included in diet. Soilless cultivation methods have potential to enhance and standardize levels secondary metabolites or specific bioactive compounds plants, even when utilizing LED lighting. In recent years, tailored foods, enriched with important microelements, are growing popularity. The present research was conducted explore quantitative qualitative aspects dill ( Anethum graveolens L.), grown either indoor a greenhouse harvested during microgreen stage. Seeds were primed 1.5 3 mg L −1 selenium (Se). Untreated dry hydro-primed seeds used as control positive groups, respectively. Results demonstrated higher yield farm environment (1255.6 g FW m −2 ) compared (655.1 ), general effect on morphological traits studied, no significant influence from priming Se. mean value phenolic index microgreens 13.66% greater than that condition. It also observed Se can effectively raise content microgreens, both tested conditions. Overall, our results suggest seems be most promising concentration obtain Se-enriched microgreens.
