Fluorometric estimation of taurine in tissue extracts and biological fluids.
A fluorometric technique was developed to estimate taurine in tissue extracts and body fluids. Dowex-AG and Biorad-AG columns were used to separate this amino acid from other components. Interference by Glycerophosphoryl ethanolamine was removed by hydrolysis of the sample with 6N HCl. The fluorogen used was fluorescamine.
