The changes of chemical composition and functional properties of derooted sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seeds (DSS) before, during, and after germination were investigated. Sesame seeds germinated in dark chambers maintained near 100% relative humidity at 35 degrees C without presoaking reached >99% germination rate in 4 days with the final moisture content stayed ca. 2% (w/w), characterizing sesame seeds as orthodox seeds that are suitable for long term storage at low temperature and humidity under defined environment. With noticeable reduction in fat content (23%), germinated DSS were found rich in linolenic acid, P, and Na, increasing from 0.38% (w/w), 445 mg/100 g, and 7.6 mg/100 g before germination to 0.81% (w/w), 472 mg/100 g, and 8.4 mg/100 g after germination, respectively. DSS after germination contained considerable amount of Ca (462 mg/100 g), higher than that of soybean. Germinated DSS presents an excellent source of sesamol (475 mg/100 g), a potent natural antioxidant, and alpha-tocopherol (32 mg/100 g), the most active form of vitamin E.
研究了去根芝麻（Sesamum indicum L.）种子（DSS）在萌发前、萌发期间和萌发后的化学成分和功能特性变化。芝麻种子在35摄氏度、相对湿度接近100%的黑暗培养箱中萌发，未进行预浸泡，4天内发芽率达到>99%，最终水分含量约为2%（w/w），这表明芝麻种子是适合在特定环境下低温低湿长期储存的传统种子。发芽的DSS脂肪含量显著降低（23%），但富含亚麻酸、磷和钠，亚麻酸从萌发前的0.38%（w/w）、磷从445毫克/100克、钠从7.6毫克/100克分别增加到萌发后的0.81%（w/w）、472毫克/100克和8.4毫克/100克。发芽后的DSS含有大量的钙（462毫克/100克），高于大豆。发芽的DSS是芝麻酚（475毫克/100克，一种有效的天然抗氧化剂）和α-生育酚（32毫克/100克，维生素E最活跃的形式）的优质来源。
