Determination of bioactive compounds content directly from foodstuff is not enough for the
prediction of potential in vivo effects, as metabolites reaching the blood system may be …

Glucosinolates are a large group of plant secondary metabolites with nutritional effects, and
are mainly found in cruciferous plants. After ingestion, glucosinolates could be partially …

Glucosinolates are sulfur-rich, anionic natural products that upon hydrolysis by endogenous
thioglucosidases called myrosinases produce several different products (eg …

The chemistry of glucosinolates and their behavior during food processing is very complex.
Their instability leads to the formation of a bunch of breakdown and reaction products that …

Glucosinolates (GLSs) are found in Brassica vegetables. Examples of these sources include
cabbage, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower and various root vegetables (eg radish and …

Bladder cancer is a significant health burden due to its high prevalence, risk of mortality,
morbidity, and high cost of medical care. Epidemiologic evidence suggests that diets rich in …

In recent decades, glucosinolates and isothiocyanates have attracted the interest of scientific
community due to healthy properties of these bioactive compounds and their role as natural …

While the myrosinase–glucosinolate system has been reviewed in recent years by a number
of authors, little attention has been paid to the enzymic and non-enzymic degradation of …

This article reviews the mechanisms by which glucosinolate breakdown products are
thought to inhibit carcinogenesis. It describes how isothiocyanates, thiocyanates, nitriles …

Glucosinolates are a group of thioglucosides that belong to the class of plant nitrogen-
containing natural products. So far, very little biological activity has been associated with …
