Effect of ultrasonic pretreatment on eliminating cyanogenic glycosides and hydrogen cyanide in cassava [PDF]
Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2021 Traditional soaking method takes days to remove cassava cyanide. Ten minutes of ultrasonic pretreatment (UPT) was found to be a new effective method to eliminate both cyanogenic glycosides and hydrogen cyanide in cassava. Here, the parameters of UPT were

Acute health risks related to the presence of cyanogenic glycosides in raw apricot kernels and products derived from raw apricot kernels [PDF]
EFSA Journal, 2016 Amygdalin is the major cyanogenic glycoside present in apricot kernels and is degraded to cyanide by chewing or grinding. Cyanide is of high acute toxicity in humans. The lethal dose is reported to be 0.5–3.5 mg/kg body weight (bw).

Production of the cyanogenic glycoside dhurrin in yeast
Metabolic Engineering Communications, 2019 Cyanogenic glycosides are defense compounds found in a wide range of plant species, including many crops. We demonstrate that the cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin, naturally found in sorghum, can be produced at high titers in Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...
