A removable ocular microdialysis system for measuring vitreous biogenic amines.
A microdialysis system with a removable probe and a fixed scleral entry port is presented. The probe can be inserted several times with minimal trauma, permitting repeated sampling in one animal. The functioning of the setup is illustrated by the measurement of dopamine, dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid, and noradrenaline in the vitreous of healthy rabbits under physiological conditions.
