Reexamination of canavanine disappearance during germination of alfalfa (Medicago
sativa).
J Nutr Sci Vitaminol (Tokyo) 1986 Feb;32(1):77-82
Kasai T, Sakamura S.
It was proved that the canavanine present during germination of alfalfa both in
the dark and in the light does not decrease and in fact increases a little,
despite earlier papers having described the disappearance of canavanine during
germination of alfalfa. The presence of canavanine in alfalfa sprouts was
confirmed by isolation and comparison with an authentic specimen.
Deaminocanavanine was also isolated from both seeds and sprouts of alfalfa, but
it is not clear whether this canavanine derivative is a natural product or an
artifact formed from canavanine during isolation procedures.
