Description

Plant tissues were extracted in methanol and analyzed by electrospray mass spectrometry to identify and quantify norditerpene alkaloids. Mass spectra were recorded over 150-800 m/z range and alkaloid concentrations calculated based on relative abundance of internal standard.

Typical Equipment

  • Electrospray mass spectrometer
  • Wiley mill
  • Retsch mixer mill MM301
  • Centrifuge

Output Measurements

  • alkaloid concentrations
  • alkaloid identities
  • mass spectra
