Abstract
Objective:
To separate and determine scopolamine from the food in a poisoning case by GC/MS.
Methods:
The scopolamine was determined by GC/MS/El used CP5860(CP-sil8CB) column (30 mx 0.25 mmx 0.33 microm) with liquid- liquid extraction.
Results:
The deny scopolamine was found in the case sample, and the chromatographic separation of the peaks is fine.
Conclusion:
The method is accurate and reliable.
