The study investigated the effect of soilless media (burlap), on morphological traits and antioxidant activities microgreens from Brassicaceae, Amaranthaceae, Linaceae families. results revealed significant variations were observed in selected morphological, biochemical composition, capacity microgreens. radish sango showed superior characteristics compared to other elemental composition analysis consistent moisture, ash, fat, fiber, protein content across all microgreens, depending growing medium between Notably, differed photosynthetic pigment profiles, with flaxseed cabbage showing highest chlorophyll 26.59 27.18 µg/g, FW carotenoid a range 3.74 6.39 was beetroot exhibited elevated anthocyanin levels 27.94-28.25 µmol/100 g, FW. Biochemical indicated varying ascorbic acid (177.58 256.46 mg/100 FW), total glucosinolate (4.09 47.38 µmol/g, phenolic (131.44 298.56 mg GAE/100 flavonoid (10.94 18.14 QUE/100 FW) Radish demonstrated DPPH (76.82%, ABTS (88.49%, radical scavenging activities, indicating potential. that Brassicaceae are particularly rich bioactive properties. Additionally, studies could assess economic feasibility scalability cultivation methods for support their inclusion sustainable agricultural practices health-promoting diets.

Temperature and salinity level of the imbibition medium play a crucial role in regulating seed germination seedling emergence, which is also true microgreen production, where temperature water potential may influence alone and/or combination. In this study, effects different temperatures potentials NaCl, or combination, upon early radicle growth, were assessed two species for production (Eruca sativa-rocket, Raphanus sativus-radish). Seeds germinated at eight constant (from 5 to 35 °C) five (ψ) NaCl 0 −1.2 MPa). Final percentage (FGP) was maximized 15–20 °C rocket, 20–25 radish. As increased decreased, reduced became less uniform, greater extent, suboptimal both species. Across potentials, FGP values exceeding 50% highest radish indicated tolerance than rocket supraoptimal during germination. temperatures, speed progressively depressed as decreased. The adverse moved away from its optimal value. Overall, seeds able germinate well (>80%) 20 levels down −0.9 MPa, while (≥90%) 25 MPa. Salt stress higher low high respectively. Both thermal time hydrotime requirements because took longer germinate. Thermal help predict capacity time, once substrate known. findings study have important implications large-scale industrial microgreens.

Microgreens are tender, edible seedlings harvested 7–21 days after germination containing a central stem, cotyledons, and true leaves. Known as fresh, ready-to-eat functional food, they mostly rich in vitamins, antioxidants, bioactive compounds, minerals, with distinctive flavors, colors, textures. These attributes make microgreens valuable component nutrition health research. In countries like India, where low-income households spend 50–80% of their income on micronutrient deficiencies common, particularly among women. Indian women, facing double burden malnutrition, experience both underweight (18.7%) obesity (24.0%) issues, 57% suffering from anemia. Women’s unique requirements vary across life stages, infancy to elderly years, require diets vitamins minerals ensure adequacy. Microgreens, high nutrient density, hold promise addressing these deficiencies. Fresh processed based products can enhance food variety, nutritive value, appeal. Rethinking agriculture horticulture tools combat malnutrition reduce the risk non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is vital for achieving nutritional security poverty reduction. This review compiles recent research microgreens, focusing profiles, benefits, suitable crops, substrates, seed growing methods, sensory characteristics, applications fresh value-added products. It offers insights into sustainable role enhancing human health.

Green leafy vegetables (GLV) are known for their cardiovascular health benefits. However, the effects of serving size on delaying carbohydrate and lipid digestion remain unclear. This study investigated impact varying MyPlate-recommended GLV sizes digestibility carbohydrates lipids antioxidant activity during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Eight including Asteraceae (cos, green oak, red loose-leaf) Brassicaceae (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, Chinese cabbage) were incorporated into mixed meals at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 times MyPlate recommendation. The results showed that total phenolic content (TPC) ranged from 5.77 to 9.46 mg GAE/g extract. Nitrate accumulation exhibited a higher (590.90-1155.04 NO3-NE/g extract) than families (244.96–726.20 extract). Incorporating ≥ 1 all significantly decreased rapidly slowly digestible starch fractions, while undigestible increased, resulting glucose release. Antioxidant was enhanced with free fatty acid concentrations vegetable servings. Post-digestion nitrate 127.3 188.5 µg NO3-N/mL, positively correlating size. These dose-dependent varied across species. findings suggest incorporating or above recommendation may have protective health.

Microgreens have great potential for improving the nutritional value of human diets, as well constituting a promising dietary option preventing chronic disease. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are commercially used light source to improve growth microgreens, nutrient and bioactive compound accumulation. Here, we provide first report phenolic compound, chlorophyll carotenoid pigment, fiber contents red green kale microgreens grown in chamber under white LEDs combined with or blue light. Significant differences response phytocompounds between its combination were determined. These studies showed that positively influenced accumulation compounds, which consequently determined high antioxidant activity. On contrary, LED lights most suitable carotenoids chlorophylls, including b, Klason lignin. results suggest use can increase concentration compounds thus may enhance their health-promoting potential.
