abstract: Root vegetables contain flavon(ol) glycosides in tracers up to small amounts, while the level of their leaves are in part considerable (to more than 1 g/kg, calculated as aglycon). Radish, rutabagas, scorzoneras, and beets contain less than 1 mg/kg kaempferol and/or quercetin; carrots less than 1 mg/kg apigenin and luteolin; celery roots ca. 75 mg apigenin/kg and 14 mg luteolin/kg; horseradish about 20 mg kaempferol/kg and small radish 1-10 mg kaempferol/kg, whereby all these flavones and flavonols occur as glycosides in the vegetables. In leaves of small radish, variety "Eiszapfen", we found besides isoquercitrin (quercetin-3-glucoside) a quercetin-3-0-diglycoside and a kaempferol-0-diglycoside, both with the sugars rhamnose and arabinose, by tlc.
