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

Factors Influencing Glucoraphanin and Sulforaphane Formation in Brassica Plants: A Review

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Sulforaphane is a type of sulfur-containing isothiocyanates hydrolyzed from glucosinolates by myrosinase found in Brassica plants. Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring inducer of phase II enzymes in human and animal bodies to detoxify cancer-causing ...

Glucoraphanin conversion into sulforaphane and related compounds by gut microbiota [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology
Glucosinolate glucoraphanin, common in cruciferous vegetables, is a biologically stable precursor of isothiocyanates, such as sulforaphane and erucin, potent activators of Nrf2 signaling coordinating an adaptive response to oxidative stress. Sulforaphane

Effect of a sulforaphane supplement on muscle soreness and damage induced by eccentric exercise in young adults: A pilot study

Physiological Reports, 2021
Objective Excessive exercise increases the production of reactive oxygen species in skeletal muscles. Sulforaphane activates nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) and induces a protective effect against oxidative stress.
