[GLC method for microdetermination of catecholamines (author's transl)].
A gas liquid chromatographic method for determination of catecholamines in small sample is described. The method involves homogenization of biological material into 0,1 M formic acid 5 mM ascorbic acid and subsequent conversion in their trimethylsilyl derivatives with BSA reagent and determined on 3% OV-1 column in a isothermal condition at 220 degrees C with the cromatograph equipped with hydrogen flame ionization. With respect to specificity, reproducibility and recovery, the results were satisfactory.
[Study of catecholamines in the thoracic ganglia and sixth ganglion by gas liquid chromatography (author's transl)].
The gas liquid chromatographic method was used in the investigation of catecholamines in the central nervous system of Periplaneta americana. There is evidence of existence of noradrenaline in the thoracic ganglia and in the sixth abdominal glanglion. Noradrenaline might be the neurotransmitter substance in the nervous system of this insect. Besides noradrenaline, some compounds are present in the nervous system, with different retention times from 1-adrenaline, dopamine and homovanillic acid.
