Cyanogenesis prospection in galled and non-galled tissues of Microgramma squamulosa (Polypodiaceae)
Lilloa, 2020 Cyanogenic glycosides are defense substances that can produce hydrocyanic acid when they undergo hydrolysis as a result of herbivory, a process called cyanogenesis.

Effect of microwave heating on content of cyanogenic glycosides in linseed [PDF]
Ratarstvo i Povrtarstvo, 2012 Linseed is a good source of linoleic (LA, 18:2, n-6) and especially α-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3, n-3), ω6 and ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are essential because mammals, and therefore humans, cannot endogenously synthesize them and must ...

Mobilization and Utilization of Cyanogenic Glycosides [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1988 In the seeds of Hevea brasiliensis, the cyanogenic monoglucoside linamarin (2-beta-d-glucopyranosyloxy-2-methylpropionitrile) is accumulated in the endosperm. After onset of germination, the cyanogenic diglucoside linustatin (2-[6-beta-d-glucosyl-beta-d-glucopyranosyloxy]-2- methylpropionitrile) is formed and exuded from the endosperm of Hevea ...

The use of edible insects in human food
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...
