title: Method for simultaneous determination of creatine phosphate and adenine nucleotides in the intestinal smooth muscle of guinea-pig taenia caeci using high-performance liquid chromatography.
abstract: A method for simultaneous determination of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) and creatine phosphate (PCr) by high-performance liquid chromatography is described. This method was applied to the isolated intestinal smooth muscle tissue of guinea pig taenia caeci weighing approximately 30 mg. It was found that one g of the muscle tissue contained 3.55 mumol PCr, 2.40 mumol ATP and 0.477 mumol ADP.
