Toxic plant alkaloids (TPAs) may contaminate food and pose a threat to consumer health; as a consequence, they are undesired in foodstuff or food commodities. Similar to other ingredients, TPA may be affected by storing or processing of food, often associated with decreased levels of the parent alkaloids. Up to now, little is known about potential transformation products or if they still may exhibit toxic potential to consumers. This perspective briefly summarizes the current knowledge regarding the behavior of opium, pyrrolizidine, and tropane alkaloids toward processing or storing and highlights analytical strategies to identify and elucidate potential transformation products.
有毒植物生物碱（TPAs）可能会污染食物，对消费者健康构成威胁；因此，它们是食物或食品商品中不希望出现的物质。与其他成分一样，TPA 可能会受到食物储存或加工的影响，通常与母体生物碱含量降低有关。到目前为止，人们对潜在的转化产物知之甚少，或者它们是否仍然可能对消费者具有潜在的毒性。本文简要总结了关于鸦片、吡咯里西啶和托烷生物碱在加工或储存过程中的行为的现有知识，并重点介绍了用于鉴定和阐明潜在转化产物的分析策略。
