Data on chemical composition of alkaloids of Plumula nelumbinis and antioxidant activity from thirteen habitats in China

摘要

Plumula nelumbinisis widely consumed as tea for its pharmacological properties, which is related to its chemical composition, so the identification of the major compounds ofP. nelumbinisis valuable. The data described in this article is supported by the research article entitled “Chemical composition of alkaloids ofPlumula nelumbinisand their antioxidant activity from different habitats in China” (Tian et al., 2018). Included are the MS-MS Spectrograms of seven alkaloid standards and thirty alkaloids identified in theP. nelumbinis,which is based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry method. Also included are the total alkaloids content and the antioxidant activity of total alkaloid inP. nelumbinisfrom 13 habitats in China, which was accomplished with three different antioxidant assays.
