| pubmed-article:7214697 | pubmed:abstractText | We have developed an high performance liquid chromatographic procedure employing amperometric detection for the measurement of urinary free norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine. The between-day precision (C.V.) at various concentrations of the above analytes varied from 4.8-11.6%. There was negligible between-urine difference in the percent recovery of norepinephrine and epinephrine but considerable between-urine difference for dopamine. The procedure has been used to determine reference ranges in infants, children and adults. Its preliminary application to the laboratory detection of neural crest tumors is also described. | lld:pubmed |
