Abstract: | A simple and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography method with electrochemical detector is described for the determination of free 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (HVA) in human plasma. The method does not involve any extraction, is specific and reproducible, and has the potential to measure serotonin (5-HT) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) simultaneously. The plasma concentration of free HVA in eight normal, healthy adult volunteers was 10.9 ± 4.6 (mean ± SD). In a preliminary study, in one schizophrenic patient the plasma HVA increased twofold after neuroleptic treatment. |
