Solanidine is a steroidal aglycon of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) glycoalkaloids and a very important precursor for the synthesis of hormones and some pharmacologically active compounds. Glycoalkaloids are hydrolyzed by mineral acid, yielding solanidine. This paper deals with the kinetics

A radioimmunoassay for solanidine, the major hydrolysis product of potato glycoalkaloids, has been established and validated for application to human plasma. All 34 samples of human plasma tested contained solanidine, with a mean of 1.27 +/- 0.97 ng/ml (3.18 +/-
Solanidine, a steroidal alkaloid, and its glycosides have been reported to have caused poisoning in man and animals. These alkaloids are normally present in small amounts in potatoes. Measurement of solanidine in body fluid would be expected to establish the

Steroidal glycoalkaloids are naturally occurring, secondary plant metabolites that are found in foods, including potatoes and tomatoes. Their content in plants is controlled by both genetic and environmental factors. Glycoalkaloid profiles can be passed to progenies during breeding and hybridization

To assess whether reported toxicities of potato-derived glycoalkaloids could be the result of interactions with cellular DNA, the genotoxic effects of alpha-solanine, alpha-chaconine and solanidine were studied, using the Ames test (Salmonella strains TA98 and TA100), the mouse peripheral blood
