Compounds 158 were undetectable in the vehicle control samples. Therefore, they can be assumed to be derived from willow bark extract or its metabolites.

a

Identified by comparison with authentic reference compound.

b

Tentative identification based on monoisotopic mass and comparison with fragmentation patterns in literature or databases (HMDB, Metlin, Massbank, mzCloud; for details, see Supplementary Data Sheet 1); structural isomers cannot be ruled out;

#

Described in the literature in Salix sp;

+

Described in the literature as intestinal/fecal metabolite.
