Aconitine, a potent diterpene alkaloid, is chiefly derived from the traditional herb, Aconitum. Renowned for its profound analgesic properties, particularly in mitigating cancer-associated gastrointestinal pain, aconitine acts by inducing paralysis in peripheral nerves while also offering anti-inflammatory benefits. Despite its therapeutic potential, aconitine poses significant risks due to its high toxicity, affecting both the sensory and central nervous systems and directly impacting cardiac and vagal functions. Consequently, accurate and detailed analytical assessment of aconitine is critical.
Figure 1. Molecular Structure of Aconitine
MtoZ Biolabs utilizes liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for metabolomic analysis of aconitine. This technique combines the high separation efficiency of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with the high sensitivity of mass spectrometry (MS), allowing for the precise detection and quantification of trace components in complex samples. Our services extend beyond identification and quantification to include in-depth studies on the structure-activity relationships, metabolic pathways, and biological activity of alkaloids, providing comprehensive data support.
