For LC–MS analyses, extracts were dissolved in MeOH to a final concentration of 1 mg/mL, and 1 μL was injected into Waters Acquity UPLC system coupled to Agilent 6530 QTOF MS. Samples were analyzed according to the protocol that was previously published29 (link). LC–MS/MS acquisition of the pure compounds was performed using Shimadzu Nexera X2 UHPLC system coupled to Shimadzu 9030 QTOF mass spectrometer as previously described61 (link). LC–MS/MS acquisition for molecular networking was performed using Thermo Instruments MS system (LTQ Orbitrap XL, Bremen, Germany) equipped with an electrospray ionization source (ESI) as described29 (link).
