Abstract

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography has been used to determine the content of indole-3-carbinol in aerial parts of some plants of the cabbage (Brassicaceae) family. It is established that a high content of indole-3-carbinol (from 1.4 to 1.9%) is inherent in grass of Brassica napus L. and leaves of Brassica rapa L. In view of the potential use of Brassica napus L. as a source of substances with anti-cancer effect, reversed-phase HPLC analysis has been performed that revealed a significant content of flavonoids with the major aglycones of quercetin, kaempferol, and isorhamnetin.
