Abstract
The content of strychnine from Strychnos nux-vomica [corrected] seeds was analyzed and compared to processed seeds by the HPLC-ESI/MS method. Using this technique, levels as low as 1 ng of strychnine were detected. In contrast to conventional UV detectors, this method also made it possible to discriminate brucine. This study resulted in finding the content of strychnine in detoxified seeds to be one tenth of unprocessed Strychnos nux-vomica [corrected] seeds.Entities:
