The goal of our present research was to develop a simple and rapid method for the quantitation of desulfoglucosinolates (desulfoGLS) without using column chromatography. The proposed method involves extraction, concentration, incubation of glucosinolates with a sulfatase enzyme, and HPLC analysis. Identification of desulfoGLS in green kohlrabi was performed by LC-HR-ESI-QTOF-MS in positive-ionization mode. A total of 11 desulfoGLS were identified with neoglucobrassicin (3.32 ± 0.05 μmol/g DW) as the predominant indolyl, whereas progoitrin and sinigrin were the major aliphatic desulfoGLS. The levels of the aliphatic desulfoGLS glucoiberin, progoitrin, and glucoerucin at 7 h were found to be 3.6-, 1.9-, and 1.6-fold higher, respectively, than those produced through the conventional method. This technique was successfully applied in the identification of desulfoGLS from cabbage. The developed method has fewer unit operations, has maximum recovery, and is reproducible in the determination of desulfoGLS in a large number of Brassicaceae samples in a short time.
