Effect of methanol-ammonia-water treatment on the concentration of individual glucosinolates of canola
1989
Shahidi, F. | Gabon, J.E.
The effect of methanol-ammonia-water/hexane extraction of canola seed on the content of individual glucosinolates of their resulting meals was investigated. The level of original glucosinolates retained in the treated meals varied between 6% to 15% as determined by gas chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. These correspond to values of about 4% to 10% for the aliphatic glucosinolates found in seeds routinely analyzed for canola designation. The concentration of these aliphatic, nonindole, glucosinolates in the treated meals was less than 1.8 micromole per gram while their total concentration did not exceed 4.3 micromole per gram of meal.
