Pyrrolizidine alkaloids in honey: comparison of analytical methods.
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are a structurally diverse group of toxicologically relevant secondary plant metabolites. Currently, two analytical methods are used to determine PA content in honey. To achieve reasonably high sensitivity and selectivity, mass spectrometry detection is demanded. One method is an HPLC-ESI-MS-MS approach, the other a sum parameter method utilising HRGC-EI-MS operate...
متن کاملPyrrolizidine alkaloids in honey and bee pollen.
A total of 3917 honey samples and 119 'bee pollen' samples (pollen collected by honeybees) were analysed for pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). Some 0.05 M sulphuric acid was used for extraction followed by a clean-up step by means of solid-phase extraction. Separation and detection was achieved by target analysis using an LC-MS/MS system. PAs were found in 66% of the raw honeys (bulk honey not yet...
متن کاملPyrrolizidine alkaloids of Echium vulgare honey found in pure pollen.
The pyrrolizidine alkaloids previously identified in floral honey attributed to Echium vulgare (Boraginaceae) have been detected (8000-14 000 ppm) in pure pollen collected from the anthers of Echium vulgare. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids and/or their N-oxides were isolated from the aqueous acid extracts of pollen by use of strong cation-exchange, solid-phase extraction and identified by liquid chroma...
متن کاملPyrrolizidine Alkaloids from Heliotropium
Investigation of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids of Heliotropium arbainense resulted in the isolation and identification of heliotrine, europine and 7-angelylheliotrine. From H. ovalifolium three alkaloids were isolated: supinine, 7-angelylheliotridine and an alkaloid which was shown to be of the heliotridine monoester type with a dehydrated viridifloric acid.
متن کاملPyrrolizidine alkaloids in human diet.
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are the leading plant toxins associated with disease in humans and animals. Upon ingestion, metabolic activation in liver converts the parent compounds into highly reactive electrophiles capable of reacting with cellular macromolecules forming adducts which may initiate acute or chronic toxicity. The pyrrolizidine alkaloids present a serious health risk to human populati...
