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 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
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
Spoiled potatoes and, in particular, steroidal alkaloids have been proposed as an aetiological factor in the pathogenesis of neural tube defect (NTD). The present study involves the measurement of potato (solanum) steroidal alkaloid concentrations in serum by radioimmunoassay. Serum solanidine

Reduced liver weight was used to evaluate the potential toxicity in mice of four naturally occurring steroidal glycoalkaloids: alpha-chaconine and alpha-solanine, alpha-tomatine and solasonine. Increased liver weights was used to evaluate the three corresponding steroidal aglycones: solanidine, tomatidine, and solasodine
