Figure 2

Changes in AsA (A) and AsA+DHA (B) accumulation according to different treatments of soybean sprouts. Plants 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. Con: Sprouts cultivated in distilled water; HRW: Sprouts cultivated in HRW; W: Sprouts cultivated under white light; UV-A: Sprouts cultivated under UV-A. Data are the mean ± standard error (n = 3); Different letters indicate significant differences (Duncan’s test, P < 0.05).
