Title: In vivo microdialysis in the visual cortex of awake cat. II: sample analysis by microbore HPLC-electrochemical detection and capillary electrophoresis-laser-induced fluorescence detection. Author: Qu Y, Li Y, Vandenbussche E, Vandesande F, Arckens L. Journal: Brain Res Brain Res Protoc; 2001 Apr; 7(1):45-51. PubMed ID: 11275523. Abstract: Sampling and monitoring release of excitatory and inhibitory amino acids in the striate cortex of mammals will provide important information for visual system research. Two microbore high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection methods and a capillary electrophoresis-laser induced fluorescence detection were developed to determine the inhibitory amino acid, gamma-aminobutyric acid and the excitatory amino acids, glutamate and aspartate in microdialysates of cat striate cortex. In the liquid chromatography method, samples were derivatized using OPA-TBT. Ten microliters of derivatized product was injected onto the microbore column (100 x 1 mm i.d., C8) for quantitative analysis. Electrochemical detection was employed. In the capillary electrophoresis method, samples were derivatized using fluorescein isothiocyanate and separated in borate buffer within 15 min, then detected by a laser-induced fluorescence detector.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
