Application

(−)-Scopolamine N-butyl bromide was used as standard in designing a procedure for quantification of compounds using CE-MS.8

Biochem/physiol Actions

Competitive muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist; antispasmodic.
Scopolamine is an anti-muscarinic and cholinolytic alkaloid that inhibits parasympathetic-cholinergic system.5 The central effects include hallucinations, disorientation, restlessness and euphoria.6 Scopolamine disturb the stimulus detection performance in rats by interfering with the reticular cholinergic pathways.7

Different approaches were chosen to examine ionization reproducibility of analytes after separation by capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) in a commercially available sheath-flow electrospray interface. For this task three different standard samples were examined. Sample 1 contained neostigmine bromide (cationic), paracetamol
