TRANSFORMATION OF SULFUR COMPOUNDS IN GARLIC
Natural
Aging-Bioconversion Pathway: This
pathway leads both water- and oil-soluble sulfur compounds, mainly
water-soluble. During the natural aging, the harsh and irritating
compounds in raw garlic are converted mild, stable, safe and beneficial
compounds. Cell
Rupture-Allicin Decomposition Pathway: When
garlic is cut or crushed, alliin is enzymatically converted into
allicin. Allicin is highly unstable and rapidly decomposes under
uncontrollable chemical reactions to produce odorous oil-soluble sulfur
compounds. |
