Effect of Ultrasonic Pretreatment on the Biosynthesis of Tocopherols, Tocotrienols and Carotenoids in Flax Sprouts (Linum Usitatissimum L.)

This study evaluated the effect of ultrasonic pretreatment of flaxseeds for 0–10 min on the biosynthesis of tocopherols, tocotrienols, and carotenoids in flax sprouts. The results showed that tocopherol, tocotrienol and carotenoid contents were significantly increased (up to 130%) after 8-min ultras...
