Modified fluorometric method for determining plasma catecholamines.
Plasma catecholamines were fluorometrically determined by a modification of the standard alumina-trihydroxyindole method in which radioactive tracer catecholamines are used to follow the chromatographic behavior of the endogenous catecholamines on alumina. This modification permits appropriate fluorometry of that portion of the eluate with the highest concentration of catecholamines, because in...
متن کاملNovel double-isotope technique for enzymatic assay of catecholamines, permitting high precision, sensitivity and plasma sample capacity.
1. A novel use of a double-isotope method is described which allows radioenzymatic assays to combine precision and sensitivity. 2. In the catechol O-methyltransferase assay separate portions of each plasma sample are incubated with either S-[3H]- or S-[14C]-adenosyl-L-methionine. Standards of noradrenaline and adrenaline are added to the latter portions and are thus converted into standards of ...
متن کاملDielectronic resonance method for measuring isotope shifts.
Long standing problems in the comparison of very accurate hyperfine-shift measurements to theory were partly overcome by precise measurements on few-electron highly charged ions. Still the agreement between theory and experiment is unsatisfactory. In this Letter, we present a radically new way of precisely measuring hyperfine shifts, and demonstrate its effectiveness in the case of the hyperfin...
متن کاملEnzymatic single-molecule kinetic isotope effects.
Ensemble-based measurements of kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) have advanced physical understanding of enzyme-catalyzed reactions, but controversies remain. KIEs are used as reporters of rate-limiting H-transfer steps, quantum mechanical tunnelling, dynamics and multiple reactive states. Single molecule (SM) enzymatic KIEs could provide new information on the physical basis of enzyme catalysis. ...
متن کاملA sensitive double-isotope derivative assay for norepinephrine and epinephrine. Normal resting human plasma levels.
A sensitive and specific double-isotope dilution method for assaying norepinephrine and epinephrine separately is described. The method is based on enzymatic conversion of these two catecholamines to their respective metanephrines and was applied successfully to measurement of resting plasma concentrations of norepinephrine and epinephrine in normal subjects with the finding that norepinephrine...
