Chromatographic separation for quantitative analysis was carried out by the same HPLC-MS/MS system mentioned above. Briefly, 1 μL solution was injected into the column. The flow rate was set to 0.2 mL min−1 and the column oven temperature to 25 °C ± 1 °C. The mobile phase consisted of water (A) and methanol (B) with the following gradient profile: 0–2 min, 95% A; 2–20 min, 100% B; 20–22 min, 100% B; 22–23 min, 95% A and 23–30 min, 95% A.
Based on the literature describing typical alfalfa secondary metabolite profile and screening of mixed Hunor-40 BJ 16 molecules were selected. For quantitative analysis nicotinamide (≥99.5%); nicotinic acid (≥98%); riboflavin (≥98%); isoquercitrin (primary reference standard); naringenin (≥95%); biochanin A; coumestrol (≥95%); formononetin (≥98%); luteolin (≥98%); apigenin (≥98%); liquiritigenin (phyproof Reference Substance); tricin (phyproof Reference Substance); Apigenin 7-O-glucuronide (primary reference standard); biotin (≥99%); quercetin (≥95%); genkwanin (≥98%); ferulic acid (≥99%) as external standards were applied (Merck-Sigma, Darmstadt, Germany). Working standard solutions were prepared daily by dilution of the stock solutions with methanol.

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.
