For each solvent, the pH was altered to produce a solution of poppy seeds and solvent (1 mL) at the specified pHs. To each solution, deuterated internal standard (morphine-d 3) was added. The tubes were then capped and placed into an ultrasonic bath for 10 min, centrifuged at 4,000 rpm for 10 min. The appropriate layer was transferred to a clean glass tube, where it was dried down under nitrogen at 40°C and reconstituted in 100 μL of aqueous mobile phase: extracts were filtered using a 0.22 μm nylon syringe filter before being transferred to a glass insert held in an auto-sampler vial for the LC-MS instrument.Sow in plugs to get the annual types started and plant small so they can develop and spread over the summer months,' recommends Paul Cook of RHS Harlow Carr.
