A methodology was developed for the analysis of cytokinins from plant tissue using electrospray tandem mass spectrometry in combination with HPLC. A detection limit of 1 pmol zeatin‐riboside injected on‐column was achieved under multiple reaction monitoring conditions. Linearity was observed within a concentration range of 1–100 pmol injected on‐column. In view of the analysis of a considerable amount of samples, the chromatographic conditions were selected which were a compromise between speed of analysis and resolution. This approach, in combination with multiple reaction monitoring, allowed the analysis of up to 150 samples a day, and quantitation of 16 different cytokinins per sample.
