[Catecholamines in the sub-esophageal ganglia and the hemolymph of the giant African snail (Achatina fulica Férussac) determined by gas chromatography]. 1975

H Takeuchi, and M Hiramatsu, and I Yokoi, and A Mori

The content of three catecholamines (dopamine, L-norepinephrine and L-epinephrine) in the subesophageal ganglia and the hemolymph of Achatina fulica Férussac was measured by a gas chromatograph with electron capture detector. The dopamine content of the ganglia was 4.3 +/- 0.9 mug/g. L-Norepinephrine and L-epinephrine in the ganglia were not detected. The three catecholamines in the hemolymph were also not detected.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002395 Catecholamines A general class of ortho-dihydroxyphenylalkylamines derived from TYROSINE. Catecholamine,Sympathin,Sympathins
D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
