A Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic method for measuring norditerpenoid alkaloids in larkspurs was developed. Alkaloids were isolated from dry plant material using a simplified extraction procedure and quantitated using FT-IR. Calibration of the method was made from selected larkspur

โฆ Synopsis
An infrared spectroscopic method has been developed to quantify the residual amount of detergent present in membranes, e.g., after reconstitution of a membrane protein in phospholipids. A detergent-specific band is selected in the ir spectrum and the intensity is ratioed against a phospholipid-specific band (around 1235 cm-1, vas (P = O)). This ratio shows a linear relation with the molar ratio of detergent of phospholipid, down to as low as 1 to 10. The new method is illustrated in two case studies, viz., tris(hydroxyethyl)ammonium cholate in Na+/K(+)-ATPase proteoliposomes and n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside in rhodopsin proteoliposomes.

A simple and rapid quantitative method to determine peroxide value (PV) of palm olein has been developed using transmittance Fourier transform (FT) IR spectroscopy. Palm olein was oxidized and blended with unoxidized palm olein to generate samples with PVs in the range 3.52-9.86. These samples were
