Summary: Camelina is an ancient cruciferous crop which is showing highly valuable ingredients and agronomical traits and could be an alternative for non-food usages. Via HPLC analyses a total of three sulfinyl-glucosinolates were determined in the seeds of Camelina. The mean glucosinolate content of ten genotypes grown at seven locations in Germany varied from 18.0 to 31.4 μmol/g dry seed. ...
Summary: Glucosinolate (GLS) content in Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz and its relatives C. microcarpa, C. alyssum, C. rumelica and C. hispida was investigated. With the exception of C. hispida in which GSL3 was absent, in all remaining species, three characteristic glucosinolates (GSL1, GSL2 and GSL3) were identified. Camelina genotypes of spring type (C. sativa CAM134, C. alyssum CAM21) showed a ...
Summary: This study deals with type and level of glucosinolates (GLS) occurring in Camelina sativa seeds. German, English Summary. Link: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/lipi.19950970406/abstract
Summary: The objective of this research was to develop reproducible methods for the isolation of large quantities of pure camelina glucosinolates (glucoarabin, glucocamelinin, and 11-(methylsulfinyl)-undecylglucosinolate) and develop efficient methods for quantifying these compounds.

Summary: Fatty acid profiles, tocopherol, and tocotrienol contents, total lipid contents, and trypsin inhibitor activity were quantitated from thirteen accessions of camelina (Camelina sativa L. Crantz), a little-known oilseed. The oil content of camelina seeds ranged from 29.9 to 38.3%. Camelina seeds did not contain [g-glucans. Trypsin units inhibited ranged from 12 to 28 compared to 111 for raw soybean. ...
