Abstract

The correlation between automated fluorimetric methods and high-performance liquid chromatography is described for the determination of homovanillic acid and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in cerebrospinal fluid, and for dopamine, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and homovanillic acid in striata of rat brain. The automated fluorimetric methods for 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and homovanillic acid showed a good correlation with the high-performance liquid chromatographic methodology. The fluorimetric determination for dopamine was somewhat less reliable than the high-performance liquid chromatographic assay. The fluorimetric assay for 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid correlated poorly with the chromatographic method.
