Polarographic simultaneous determination of benzyl thiocyanate and benzyl isothiocyanate
有機チオシアネートおよびイソチオシアネート類としてベンジルチオシアネート(BTC)およびベンジルイソチオシアネート(BIT)を取り上げ,ポーラログラフ法により両者の同時定量を試みた.BTCおよびBITを含む試料液にn-ブチルアミンを添加し,BITを対応するチオウレア誘導体に変え,常法により直流ポーラログラムを記録し,チオウレア誘導体の酸化波とBTCの還元波より両者の分離定量を行なった.BTCおよびBITのそれぞれ1×10-3~1×10-4M範囲における検量線は直線性を示し,5×10-4Mにおける変動係数はBTCでは3.3%,BITでは2.2%であった.さらに本法をBTCの放射線分解物の分析に応用した.

Genotoxic effects of benzyl isothiocyanate, a natural chemopreventive agent [PDF]
Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) is contained in cruciferous plants which are part of the human diet. Numerous reports indicate that BITC prevents chemically induced cancer in laboratory animals and it has been postulated that BITC might also be chemoprotective in humans.
