A chemiluminescent serotonin assay.
A chemiluminescent serotonin assay is described, which is based on a reaction given by some indolic compounds in alkaline dimethyl sulfoxide (DMS). When coupled to a rapid serotonin extraction procedure the assay may be used for measuring the serotonin content of different brain areas, and the release of this transmitter.
