Glucobrassicin, a quantitatively significant constituent of Brassica vegetables, gives rise to indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and its dimer di-indolylmethane (DIM) when the vegetables are chewed. I3C and DIM have been extensively studied with respect to their anti-carcinogenic properties. However, the
Carbamoylation of glutathione, peptides and DNA is thought to be one of the most important reactions occurring in an organism after exposure to nitrosoureas, methylformamides or isocyanates. The carcinogenic effects of carbamoylation are not yet fully clarified. Although carbamoylation is known to
Six general-purpose fumigants and one fungicide were applied by different methods and evaluated for control of nematode-fungus complexes on cabbage grown for transplant production. All chemicals reduced populations of nematodes and soil-borne fungi but varied greatly in effectiveness. Methyl bromide
