Abstract

Aerial parts of Physalis ixocarpa, Solatium jasminoides, and green berries of Withania somnifera were analysed for glycoalkaloids. Solasonine and solamargine are present only in S. jasminoides, a new source, which were identified by Chromatographie techniques, mp, mmp, optical rotations, colorimetry and ir studies, but no alkaloid was detected in other plant species under investigation.
