[Analysis Case] LCMS Analysis of Diosgenin in Yam Tubers
Qualitative and quantitative analysis of ginsenoside glycosides
Diosgenin is a component that has recently been reported to have not only nourishing and strengthening effects but also improvements in Alzheimer's disease and enhancements in motor function, making it a focus of attention. Natural diosgenin primarily exists as glycosides, and is abundantly found in foods such as yam. In this case, qualitative analysis of yam extract was performed using LC/MS, confirming multiple diosgenin glycosides. Additionally, by hydrolyzing the glycosides to unify them into aglycones (non-glycosides), quantitative analysis of diosgenin also becomes possible.
