Key points Reports development of a rapid, sensitive, and specific high-performance liquid chromatography method, combining ultraviolet, fluorescence, and electrochemical detection, for screening hallucinogenic mushrooms. Separation was achieved on a silica column with an alkaline aqueous methanolic eluent, and detector response ratios were evaluated for identifying hallucinogenic indole alkaloids.

Abstract

A rapid, sensitive and specific method for the screening of hallucinogenic mushrooms has been developed. High-performance liquid chromatography with simultaneous use of ultraviolet, fluorescence and electrochemical detection was employed. Separation of the mushroom components was achieved on a silica column using an alkaline aqueous methanolic eluent. The use of detector response ratios for identification of hallucinogenic indole alkaloids has been evaluated.
