In this paper, we report the results of a survey conducted across North America to evaluate the occurrence of perchlorate in leafy vegetables produced outside the lower C...
متن کاملAntioxidant and Nutritional Activity Studies of Green Leafy Vegetables
An investigation was carried out with nine green leafy vegetables (GLV’s) with their popular varieties most commonly grown in India to determine their biochemical composition. Among leafy vegetables ascorbic acid was found maximum in Chenopod cultivar Bathua Local (60.6 mg/100 g fw.) followed by Pusa Bathua -1 (23.0 mg/100g fw.) and spinach cultivar PS-1 (51 mg/100 g fw.). Significantly high le...
متن کاملNitrate accumulation in leafy vegetables and its relationship with water
Present studies show that nitrate accumulation is the major factor influencing the water uptake by vegetables, but there is lack of knowledge on how the relationship between nitrate and water concentrations in different vegetable tissues. We determined nitrate accumulation and water content in vegetables of rape, Chinese cabbage, and spinach under different nitrogen levels (experiment I), 29 sp...
