A new method using ion mobility spectrometry allows rapid analysis of psilocybin and psilocin in fungus material. Quantitative analysis was performed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after a simple one-step extraction: homogenizing dried fruit bodies in chloroform and derivatizing with MSTFA. The procedures are rapid and useful for analyzing psychotropic fungi for these compounds.
