    Abstract:
    A method is described for quantitative determination of 5-S-cysteinyldopa and Dopa in serum involving high-pressure liquid chromatographic analysis (HPLC) and electrochemical detection. The chromatographic system allows estimation of injected amounts corresponding to 25 pg of 5-S-cysteinyldopa and Dopa. In normal subjects the mean serum 5-S-cysteinyldopa concentration was 2.8 ng/ml (range 0.4--12 ng/ml) and the mean serum Dopa 6.3 ng/ml (range 4--10 ng/ml). Patients with melanoma metastases showed increased serum concentrations of 5-S-cysteinyldopa.
