Several isoquinoline alkaloids were identified, including isocorydine, corydine, glaucine and laurelliptine as the principal constituents. The cold on-column technique proved to be appropriate for injection of these compounds. The technique is shown to be a valuable tool and an alternative technique to classical phytochemical procedures permitting the fast analysis of alkaloid mixtures without the need for (extensive)fractionation and derivatisation UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ph-CjW-MUAJoOahcT5jCBB4iV_CVaKgs/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
