Investigation of Germicide and Growth Enhancer Effects on Bean Sprout using NMR-based Metabolomics

Abstract

Bean sprouts are often cultivated in the circumstances prevailing in the improper using of germicide and growth enhancer. The influence of ingestion those bean sprouts are unknown. The components of the bean sprouts are needed to evaluate for food safety. The extracts of the control, 0.5 g/L germicide, 1 g/L germicide, 12.5 mL/L growth enhancer and 25 mL/L growth enhancer were used to compare the components in the experiment. the germicide and growth enhancer has substantially potential to influence the growth of the bean sprouts.
