Non-enzymatic degradation of aliphatic Brassicaceae isothiocyanates during aqueous heat treatment [PDF]
Glucosinolate-derived isothiocyanates are valuable for human health as they exert health promoting effects. Here, the stability and reactivity of 12 different isothiocyanates during aqueous heating at 100 °C and pH 5 to pH 8 were investigated.
