Research Advance on Composition Change, Biological Activity and Application of Grain Sprouts

Abstract:

Composition changed in the germination of grains and legumes;many new compositions were produced and have more significant biological activity than seeds. Hence sprouts are widely used not only in the food industry,but also in pharmaceuticals,health care products and cosmetics.In this review,after presenting general aspects about composition change in germination,is to focus on the biological activity of sprouts,as well as to summarize the application of sprouts.
