Potential Properties of Plant Sprout Extracts on Amyloid β

Table 3

Absorption spectrum peak determined using Congo Red (CR) assay by spectrophotometry in plant sprouts’ aqueous extracts (PSAE). We selected five plant sprouts (buckwheat sprout (BWS), red cabbage sprout (RCS), broccoli sprout (BS), brussels sprout (BRS), and Japanese butterbur sprout flower buds (JBB)). This table shows the absorption spectrum peak of CR and Aβ (1–42). The binding of CR and Aβ was monitored using absorption spectroscopy. Values are the means, .
