title: Thin-layer chromatographic assays of histamine and its metabolites in urine of man and dog.
abstract: A method for the extraction and quantitation of histamine and its metabolites from relatively small volumes of urine is described. It employs primarily ion-exchange and thin-layer chromatography and allows for quantitation in the mug range. Studies of atopic man and dog that employed this procedure yielded values comparable to those reported with gas chromatographic methods.
