The Impact of Air or Nitrogen Non-Thermal Plasma on Variations of Natural Bioactive Compounds in Djulis (<i>Chenopodium formosanum</i> Koidz.) Seed and the Potential Effects for Human Health

Non-thermal plasma (NTP) has been widely applied in the food and agricultural industries. It is still unknown whether natural bioactive compounds in seeds are affected by NTP treatment. Our goal was to examine whether the bioactive compounds in djulis (<i>Chenopodium formosanum</i> Koidz...
