摘要
Using radioactive tracers, nomilin was converted to nomilin 17-beta-D-glucopyranoside in the mature albedo tissue of a navel orange. The reaction utilized UDP-glucose as a substrate. Application of 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid to small green navel oranges initiated the formation of limonoid glucosides in the fruit. Nomilin glucoside was not metabolized in the mature albedo tissue. The formation of limonoid glucosides represent a natural pathway for the debittering of citrus juices.
