“…In this work, the total levels of glucosinolates under control conditions (i.e., broad-spectrum lighting and no use of elicitors) were 75.31, 6.52, and 12.03 mg 100 g −1 FW for white, black, and Ethiopian mustard, respectively. Similar or higher levels have been determined in sprouts of white mustard [ 24 , 32 , 33 ] and black mustard [ 34 ], and in seeds and leaves of Ethiopian mustard [ 35 , 36 ], while Abellán et al [ 37 ] reported total accumulation of glucosinolates in white mustard below 19 mg 100 g −1 FW. These differences among the published results evidence the various influencing parameters, such as the genotype, type of seeds, manufacturing conditions, and germinating conditions; indeed, even the age of the sprouts can influence the accumulation of GSLs, thus suggesting an opportunity for improvement by the proper selection and optimization of these factors.…”

“…In the current work, the aromatic glucosinalbin (4-hydroxybenzyl-GSL) had a between 74.4% and 81.3% relative abundance in the profile of white mustard (Sinapis alba), depending on the specific growing conditions of the sprouts. In agreement, this glucosinolate typically accounts for >85% of the total profile [ 18 , 33 ], and was even identified as the only glucosinolate in the work of Arroyo et al [ 38 ]. In addition, the indolic glucobrassicin (3-indolylmethyl-GSL) and 4-methoxyglucobrassicin (4-methoxy-3-indolylmethyl-GSL) accounted on average for 7.3% and 14.2% of the profile, respectively.…”

This work studies the enhancement of glucosinolates (GSLs) in mustard sprouts as health promoters. Sprouts of Sinapis alba, Brassica nigra, and B. carinata were grown under broad-spectrum, monochromatic blue or red light-emitting diode (LED) lamps, irrigated with 0–100 mM sodium chloride (NaCl), and sprayed with 0–250 µM methyl jasmonate (MeJA) as elicitor. The use of LEDs did not result in increased sprout biomass in any case. The effect of the applied treatments on the GSLs depended on the species and were restricted to Brassica spp. The red LEDs produced an overall increase in GSLs over 500% in B. carinata (from 12 to 81 mg 100 g−1 F.W.), compared to the white broad-spectrum lights, although the highest increase in content was obtained in treated sprouts with 250 µM MeJA (104 an 105 mg 101 g−1 F.W., under the red and blue LEDs, respectively). The combination of blue LEDs, 100 mM NaCl, and 250 µM MeJA enhanced the levels of GLSs in B. nigra to the maximum (81 mg 100 g−1 F.W.). Overall, these results indicate that by modifying the growing conditions for a given sprout, enhancement in the accumulation of GSLs as health promoters is possible. The use of these treatments is a sustainable alternative to genetic modification when looking for bioactive-enriched foods, delivering natural plant foods rich in bioactive ingredients (e.g., glucosinolates). Nevertheless, the response to the treatments varies among species, indicating that treatments will require adjustment across sprouts. Further research continues with producing cruciferous sprouts to obtain GSL-enriched formulas for further studying the effects of their bioavailability and bioactivity on health-promotion.
