Abstract
It has been reported that selective detection of catecholamines and indoleamines by differential pulse voltammetry “in vivo” may be contaminated by the simultaneous detection of uric acid (Crespi et al., 1983; O’Neill et al., 1984). In addition uric acid has been identified in striatal and nucleus accumbens perfusates (Ungerstedt, 1984) and brain extracts (Aoki et al., 1984) by mean of HPLC-ED. The present report addresses the possibility that uric acid may interfere in the analysis of catecholamines in brain and spinal cord extracts by mean of HPLC-ED.
