The aim of this study was to identify and quantify the isothiocyanates and glucosinolate derivatives (GLS) of mashua tuber (Tropaeolum tuberosum) produced in the metabolism of experimental animals (rats). A previous stage of the present work consisted in obtaining the GLS of mashua, the results obtained showed that the content of total GLS of the flours of the mashua tubers decreased during the postharvest storage time. The purification of GLS from mashua tuber flours showed that the Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone eliminated the total phenolic compounds in the range of 50-55 percent, while the recovery percentage of total GLS was 61 percent. For the in vivo study, 54 Holtzman male albino rats were randomly distributed into three groups (treatments): T1 (control, non-colonized gastrointestinal tract (BAL-) and not dosed with glucosinolates (GLS-)), T2 (negative colonization control, BALand dosed with glucosinolates (GLS+)) and T3 (treatment under study, colonized gastrointestinal tract (BAL+) and GLS+). Colonization was carried out by oral dosing with 1.4x109 CFU of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (BAL) per day for 30 days. The animals (GLS+) were orally dosed with a single dose of 65.2 mg (148.7 µmol) of total GLS/Kg of body weight on day 31 of study. Feces, urine and blood plasma samples were collected at 1, 3, 5, 9, 24 and 30 hours from the three dosing treatments GLS(+) or GLS(-). The results showed that the probiotic bacterium colonized the gastrointestinal tract at 20 days. In respect to the in vivo metabolism of GLS, only glucoaubrietin (GAU) was detected in trace amounts up to 3 hours in blood plasma samples from treatments T2 and T3, which showed that it was absorbed and subjected to the enterohepatic circulation. The GAU was excreted in the feces (0.01 and 0.03 percent of the oral dose, for treatments T2 and T3, respectively) and urine (0.60 and 0.62 percent of the oral dose, for treatments T2 and T3, respectively). It can be concluded that the consumption of GLS by experimental animals are absorbed and metabolized, which produced isothiocyanates, nitriles, among other compounds that have been related to health benefits, these compounds are increased when the L. rhamnosus GG probiotic bacterium colonizes the gastrointestinal tract.
