Glucosinolate

Glucosinolates are a group of plant thioglucosides found principally among members of the Cruciferae.

Intakes of indoles or their parental glucosinolates, may have beneficial health effects as well as toxicological effects.

Sulphur availability has a larger effect on the content of glucosinolates, sulphur containing secondary metabolites, in both the vegetation and the seed of oilseed rape plant.
