Sažetak
Volatile sulfur compounds make up a large group of different species found in a 43 plant families and 173 plant genera, including the most important family, Brassicaceae. Glucosinolates, β-thioglucoside-N-hydroxysulfates with variable side chains are secondary metabolites identified in over 16 different plant families. These compounds are found particularly in the Brassicaceae family. Bunias erucago L. (Corn Rocket, Crested wartycabbage) is wild-growing plant in Southern Europe. Leaves, young stems as well as root are edible parts eaten raw or cooked. “Pazija”, (a Turkish name for beet (Beta)] or “pakoleć” is traditional food prepared as mixture of wild vegetables boiled in a mix where the dominant species is B. erucago [1]. Samples of B. erucago are collected from two different locations: Marjan hill (Split) and island of Brač (Škrip). The glucosinolate identification is carried out indirectly by their degradation volatile products obtained by hydrodistillation and organic solvent extraction, mostly isothiocyanates and nitriles using GC-MS technique. Analysis of B. erucago from island Brač had shown the presence of glucotropaeoline and glucodehydroerucin while in the plant collected on Marjan hill five types of glucosinolates had been identified: gluconapin, glucotropaeolin, heptyl glucosinolate, glucodehydroerucin and glucoerucin. Volatile sulfur isolates were also tested for their antioxidative, anticancer, and cholinesterase inhibitory activities.
