tropaeolum speciosum/carbohydrate

Using combinations of different polysaccharides as glycosyl donors and of oligosaccharides fluorescently labeled by sulforhodamine (SR) as glycosyl acceptors, we screened for the presence of transglycosylating activities in extracts from nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus). Besides xyloglucan

Endo-(1----4)-beta-D-glucanase activity has previously been detected in the cotyledons of germinated nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus L.) seeds, and has been linked to the hydrolysis in vivo of storage xyloglucan (amyloid) (Edwards, M., Dea, I. C. M., Bulpin, P. V., and Reid, J. S. G. (1985) Planta

The objective of this study was to characterize the nutritional compounds of interest present in vegetables known as non-conventional, in Brazil. The following evaluations were carried out: antioxidant activity, phenolic compounds, vitamin C, calories, carbohydrates, humidity, lipids, proteins,
