Eight different oilseed crops (Brassica carinata, Camelina sativa, Coriandrum sativum. Euphorbia lagascae. Lepidium sativum, Lesquerella fendleri, Madia sativa, Vernonia galamensis) grown in Italy were investigated regarding anti-nutritive compounds, such as glucosinolates, sinapine, inositol phosphates and condensed tannins, which can adversely affect the nutritional value of residues from the oilseed processing. In all seeds at least one anti-nutritive compound was found, which possibly could lower the nutritive value, but in most cases a real negative effect is not to be expected. The existence and the concentration of the different anti-nutritive components varied in the different seeds. Glucosinolates and sinapine were found only in seeds of B. carinata, L. sativum, C. sativa and L. fendleri, whereas condensed tannins and inositol phosphates appeared in all seeds. In the different seeds the amount ranged from 0.2 mg/g (L. fendleri) to 13.1 mg/g (L. sativum) for sinapine, from 0.4 mg/g (E. lagascae) to 19.6 mg/g (L. fendleri) for condensed tannins, from 6.6 mg/g (E. Iagascae) to 23.1 mg/g (B. carihata) for inositol hexa-phosphate as well as from 18.7 mumol/g (C. sativa) to 164.6 mumol/g (L. sativum) for glucosinolates. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
