armoracia lapathifolia/carbohydrate

Sliced root tissue of the horseradish plant (Armoracia rusticana), when incubated with mannose-U-(14)C, incorporated radioactivity into peroxidase isoenzymes. Over 90% of the radioactivity in the highly purified peroxidase isoenzymes was present in the neutral sugar residues of the molecule, i.e.

The potential contamination of the food chain is the most important aspect of arsenic (As) pollution, since it is highly toxic to all organisms. Thus, the search for As hyperaccumulators suitable to remove As from contaminated soils appears to be a vital task. Horseradish (Armoracia rusticana), a
