In order to facilitate the identification of the bioactive compounds present, CETC was filtered through a 0.22-μm syringe driven filter (Nylon 66) and initially was subjected to LC-MS analysis so as to obtain the Molecular ion mass using Acquity H-Class (Waters) ultra-performance liquid chromatography with BEH C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm × 1.7 μm) and a Xevo G2 (Waters) and Mass spectrometer. The mobile phase used was a mixture of acetonitrile and water (10:90) that was delivered at a flow rate of 0.2 ml/min. The electrospray ionization was used in both positive and negative mode with a scan range from m/z 50 to 2000, and the scan time was 9 min. The source temperature and desolvation temperature were 135 and 350 °C, respectively, with the capillary voltage at 4.50 kV. The molecular ion mass which was identified for possible bioactive compound from the LC-MS analysis was further confirmed by detailed LC-MS/MS based analysis using Acquity H-Class (Waters) ultra-performance liquid chromatography with BEH C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm × 1.7 μm) and Xevo G2 (Waters) Quadruple Time of Flight (Q-TOF) Mass spectrometer.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
