High resolution LC-MS/MS screening for secondary metabolites in bulgarian species of genus Astragalus L

The phytochemical content of some Astragalus species distributed in Bulgarian flora has been previously studied. Among other compounds, flavoalkaloids, acylated flavonoids, flavonoid triglycosides and cycloartane saponins have been isolated so far. The composition of the rest of the representatives of this genus in Bulgaria is not explored yet. The aim of this study was to perform a screening for the presence of selected rare secondary metabolites (flavoalkaloids, acylated flavonoids, flavonoid triglycosides and cycloartane saponins) in selected Astragalus species. Samples were collected in di...
