Factors Influencing Sulforaphane Content in Broccoli Sprouts and Subsequent Sulforaphane Extraction [PDF]

Foods, 2021
Broccoli sprouts contain 10–100 times higher levels of sulforaphane than mature plants, something that has been well known since 1997. Sulforaphane has a whole range of unique biological properties, and it is especially an inducer of phase 2 detoxication
