Abstract: Radish (Raphanus sativus L.), a member of the cruciferous vegetable family, has been used as a medicinal food for a number of ailments. Radish contains a wide variety of phytochemicals that show antioxidative, antimutagenic, antiproliferative properties and functions in the induction of detoxification enzymes. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of illite treatment on the yield and nutrient value of radish sprouts. The yield, color appearance, and total mineral content of many of the illite-applied radish sprouts were improved compared to the control. Overall, lower concentrations of illite were found to be more appropriate to enhance the yield and nutritional values of radish sprouts.
