Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo explore material basis of the pharmacological differences between the roasting and pro-roasting Raphani Semen.
METHODThe two new sulfur-containing compounds (A209 and B221) were found changed after processing in the water decoction. The common precursor-C3 of A209 and B211 and the precursor of C3 were seperated and purified. Their transforming relationship was proved.
RESULTThe result showed that glucosinolates could decompose into sulforaphane and transform into A209 and B221 further in the boiling process.
CONCLUSIONThis study provides some experimental evidences for revealing the mechanism of Raphani Semen processing.
