Abstract

The use of Interdigitated Array (IDA) Microelectrodes for detection of low levels of biogenic amines has been demonstrated in stationary solutions and flow systems [M. Morita, et al., Electrochemica Acta 42 (20--21) (1997) 3177--3183]. This technique is highly sensitive. We have evaluated this technology as applied to High Pressure Liquid Chromatography with Electrochemical Detection (HPLC-EC) for analysis of microdialysate and tissue samples. With this new technology we demonstrated a x 10 fold increase in sensitivity in comparison to our existing technology. We are now able to detect dopamine at a level of 53 x 10(-18) moles on column and serotonin at 26 x 10(-18) moles on column. This technology now permits analysis of biogenic amines in samples from brain areas not previously amenable to this type of experiment.
