Sulforafan har setts ha en kemopreventiv inverkan bland annat genom att inducera fas II-enzymer styrda av transkriptionsfaktorn nuclear factor E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2). Nrf2 är mycket viktig i cellers skydd mor oxidativ- och elektrofil stress och inducerar uttrycket av många olika gener, bland annat olika tranportproteiner.

Syftet med denna studie är att utifrån samtal med gymnasieelever få en bild av deras upplevelser kring muntliga examinationer. Den genomförda undersökningen består av fyra gruppintervjuer med tre elever i varje, vilka vid tiden för intervjun gick i årskurs två på gymnasiet. Studiens teoretiska utgångspunkter vilar på socialpsykologisk grund och människans samspel med miljön intar en framträdande roll. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att eleven, läraren och gruppen bildar ett helhetsperspektiv i situationen då en muntlig examination hålls. För eleven är dennes inställning och förberedelse inför momentet lika betydelsefullt som lärarens och kamratgruppens förhållningssätt i avseendet hur muntlig examination upplevs.
