Popis: A novel, simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the potato glycoalkaloids, alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine, based on the chemiluminescent reaction of tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(III) has been developed. The calibration graph was linear in the range of 5 ng/ml-10 microg/ml for both alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine. The detection limits of alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine were 1.2 and 1.3 ng/ml, respectively. This method was successfully applied to a potato tuber sample without cleanup, pre-concentration, and derivatization steps. The recoveries (mean +/- standard deviation, %) of alpha-solanine and alpha-chaconine spiked in tuber pith at 10 microg/g (n = 6) were 101.0 +/- 4.4% and 103.6 +/- 7.1%, respectively.
