  • Title: In vivo voltammetry: monitoring of dopamine metabolites in CSF following release by electrical stimulation.
    Author: Wightman RM, Strope E, Plotsky P, Adams RN.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1978 Dec 22; 159(1):55-68. PubMed ID: 728801.
    Abstract:
    An in vivo electrochemical system which continuously records the concentration of metabolites of biogenic amines in small animal CSF is described. A small electrode, immersed in lateral ventricle CSF through a guide cannula, measures the amine metabolites by voltammetric oxidation. The detailed results of HVA release following electrical stimulation of the nigrostriatal pathway in rats are presented and compared with previous perfusion data. All the electrochemical results are verified by independent liquid chromatographic (chemical) analysis.
