Effects of the different treatment on H2 concentrations of HRW (A) and the DPPH scavenging effect (%) in soybean sprouts (B). A Con: HRW without soybean sprouts; W:HRW with soybean sprouts under white light; UV-A: HRW with soybean sprouts under UV-A light. (B) Sprouts were grown in the dark for 72 h and then transferred to 50 ± 5 µmol·m−2·s−1 white light or 5.5 W·m−2 UV-A light for the times indicated prior to harvest. W: Sprouts cultivated in distilled water under white light; W+HRW: Sprouts cultivated in HRW under white light; UV-A: Sprouts cultivated in distilled water under UV-A; UV-A+HRW: Sprouts cultivated in HRW under UV-A. Error bars represent SD among three replicates, and different letters indicate significant differences (Duncan’s test, P < 0.05).
