Mashua (Tropaeolum tuberosum) is a tuber known for its secondary metabolites which include glucosinolates (GLS). When the GLSs are transformed by the action of plant myrosinase into various derivatives that possess functional properties are formed. Likewise, certain lactic acid bacteria can metabolize GLSs and transform them into their derivatives. However, little is known about the ability of bacteria to metabolize mashua GLS. The aim of this work was to study the fermentation of mashua GLSs using lactic acid bacteria. Firstly, the day of highest GLS content during post-harvest storage was determined. The ability to consume GLS was evaluated on six strains of lactic acid bacteria. Then, the one that showed the highest consumption was selected for fermentation assays at different GLS concentrations. The results show an increase (56%) of GLS on day 10 of storage with respect to the harvest day. Of the six lactic acid bacteria, Enterococcus (E. faecium, E. mundtii), Lactobacillus (L. plantarum, L. casei, L. rhamnosus) and Bifidobacterium (B. bifidum) consumed on average 13. 8, 32.7 and 36.3 percent GLS and the GLS derivatives obtained were 4-Methoxybenzyl isothiocyanate, 4-Methoxybenzene acetonitrile, (4-Methoxybenzyl alcohol) methyl ether and Benzene acetaldehyde. The evaluation of the fermentation of L. rhamnosus, with 0.1 percent GLS in the culture medium, showed a consumption of 45 percent GLS at 54 h and higher production of derivatives. From the results we can indicate that probiotic bacteria such as L. rhamnosus, B. bifidum and L. casei, which could colonize the human gastrointestinal tract, would be able to utilize intact glucosinolates from mashua and be used for the benefit of the consumer
