Determination of adrenaline and noradrenaline by resonance Raman spectrometry.
Aminochromes of adrenaline and noradrenaline show resonance Raman scattering at 1480 and 1430 cm(-1) respectively, with Ar(+) excitation. Scattering intensity is a linear function of concentration. Detection limits are 1 x 10(-6)M. Both catecholamines can be determined in a single measurement.
