“…Other techniques to ensure the hygienic safety of sprouts could include ionizing radiation treatment, electron beam (e-beam) or gamma ray irradiation [ 210 , 211 ], as well as their combination with sodium hypochlorite [ 212 ]. However, these techniques are subjected to limitations and are not approved in all countries; in addition, major drawbacks are represented by their detrimental effects on different seed growth parameters.…”

In the last decade, there has been an increase in the use of sprouted grains in human diet and a parallel increase in the scientific literature dealing with their nutritional traits and phytochemical contents. This review examines the physiological and biochemical changes during the germination process, and the effects on final sprout composition in terms of macro- and micro-nutrients and bioactive compounds. The main factors affecting sprout composition are taken into consideration: genotype, environmental conditions experimented by the mother plant, germination conditions. In particular, the review deepens the recent knowledge on the possible elicitation factors useful for increasing the phytochemical contents. Microbiological risks and post-harvest technologies are also evaluated, and a brief summary is given of some important in vivo studies matching with the use of grain sprouts in the diet. All the species belonging to Poaceae (Gramineae) family as well as pseudocereals species are included.

“…The regulatory effect of phosphorus and molybdenum during carbohydrate metabolism and at the time of photosynthesis in leaves and other plant parts should be considered one of the important and majorly plant limiting factor of plant growth and development particularly when convert to reproductive portion of the plant (Kumawat et al, 2009). The increasing doses of phosphorus at these positions of the crops enhanced starch and sucrose ratio of the leaves and other reproductive organs of the plant (Nagar et al, 2008). Khattak et al (2004) observed more phosphorus contents in legume seeds as they enhance phosphorus doses.…”

Legumes are most important crops after cereals having provide a range of essential nutrients and nitrogen fixation for soil fertility particularly for the subsequent crops and yield productivity. In order to improve the nutritional profile of mungbean a study was arranged at Agronomy Research Farm, Agriculture University of Peshawar in summer season 2018. The objectives of the study is to find out impact of different doses of molybdenum and phosphorus application on productivity and nutrients status of mungbean (Vigna radiate L.). The trial was laidout in randomized complete block design having three replicates. The experimental findings revealed that all the nutritional attributes and yield were significantly influenced with molybdenum and phosphorus addition except potassium uptake by grains and straw. Higher seed yield (772.45 kg ha -1 ) and harvest index (26.18 %) with application of 1.5 kg ha -1 molybdenum while more protein content (21.91 %), carbohydrates (60.36 %), nitrogen content in grain (3.76 %) and straw (1.10 %), phosphorus uptake in grain (0.380 %) and straw (0.186 %) was achieved with molybdenum applied at rate of 2.5 kg ha -1 . Whereas in case of phosphorus use maximum seed yield (810.88 kg ha -1 ) and harvest index (26.92 %) was observed with 60 kg ha -1 P application while highest protein content (22.08 %), carbohydrates (60.37 %), nitrogen content in grain (3.60 %) and straw (1.19 %), phosphorus uptake in grain (0.418 %) and straw (0.21 %), potassium uptake in grain (1.96 %) and straw (1.30 %) was achieved with P applied at 90 kg ha -1 . Higher doses of phosphorus and molybdenum enhance all the quality attributes of mungbean. It concluded from the experimental findings that mungbean crop with (1.5 kg ha -1 Mo and 60 kg ha -1 P) for seed yield and (2.5 kg ha -1 Mo and 90 kg ha -1 P) for enhancement of nutrients uptake of mungbean performed better than other doses and thus recommended for higher productivity and qualitative attributes in agro climatic condition of study area.

“…Some authors also use biological methods of limiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria; such methods include the use of bacteriophages, bacteriocins and probiotic bacteria, mainly lactic acid bacteria. The combined methods (i.e., hurdle technology) bring the best results without significantly losing the quality of ready-to-eat sprouts [ 15 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. Despite the effective sanitation treatment of the seeds, often they are re-inhabited by unwanted microflora during their cultivation.…”

This study aimed to analyse the impact of sanitation methods on the formation of bacterial biofilms after disinfection and during the germination process of mung bean on seeds and in the germination environment. Moreover, the influence of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v on the growth of the tested pathogenic bacteria was evaluated. Three strains of Salmonella and E. coli were used for the study. The colony forming units (CFU), the crystal violet (CV), the LIVE/DEAD and the gram fluorescent staining, the light and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods were used. The tested microorganisms survive in a small number. During germination after disinfection D2 (20 min H2O at 60 °C, then 15 min in a disinfecting mixture consisting of H2O, H2O2 and CH₃COOH), the biofilms grew most after day 2, but with the DP2 method (D2 + L. plantarum 299v during germination) after the fourth day. Depending on the method used, the second or fourth day could be a time for the introduction of an additional growth-limiting factor. Moreover, despite the use of seed disinfection, their germination environment could be favourable for the development of bacteria and, consequently, the formation of biofilms. The appropriate combination of seed disinfection methods and growth inhibition methods at the germination stage will lead to the complete elimination of the development of unwanted microflora and their biofilms.
