TL;DR: A procedure for quantitative estimation of strychnine and brucine in the extracts of Strychnos nux-vomica seeds by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) was developed and is useful for the qualitative and quantitative determination in plant drug samples, as well as in human plasma.
Abstract: A procedure for quantitative estimation of strychnine and brucine in the extracts of Strychnos nux-vomica seeds by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) was developed. The buffer solution used was 10mM phosphate buffer-MeOH (9 :1), pH 2.5. The linear calibration range was 0.01 - 0.15 mg/ml. This method is useful for the qualitative and quantitative determination of strychnine and brucine in plant drug samples, as well as in human plasma.

TL;DR: The contents of four alkaloids in different processed products of Strychnos nux-vomica hamely, vomicine, icajine, strychnine N-oxide and brucine N -oxide, were determined by TLC-densitometry.
Abstract: The contents of four alkaloids in different processed products of Strychnos nux-vomica hamely, vomicine, icajine, strychnine N-oxide and brucine N-oxide, were determined by TLC-densitometry. The relationship between alkaloid contents and processing methods was studied.
