Objective:To establish a measurement method for determining the levels of monoamines neurotransmitter and their metabolites in rat plasma by HPLC with Coularray Detector-2.Methods:The levels of NE,E,DA,HVA and 5-HT in rat plasma were determined by Agilent 1200 HPLC with ESA Coularray Detector-2.Mobile phase consisted of 80 mmol·L-1 Citric acid monohydrate,73.4 mmol·L-1 Citric acid trisodium salt,0.12mmol·L-1 1-Octanesulfonic acid sodium salt
0.1 mmol·L-1 EDTA-Na2 and 18% methanol mixture solution(pH4.3).Flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1 The Column was Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18(4.6 mm X 150 mm,5 μm)and Easyguard guard column at 25℃.The voltage of electrode was -150 mV and 400 mv.Results:The minimum measurement limit of NE,E,DA,HVA and 5-HT were 2.0,3.0,5.4,5.2 and 11.1 ng·mL-1 respectively.The average recoveries were 99.72%,85.33%,83.15%,120.43% and 103.56%,respectively.The RSD of intra-day(n=6)and inter-day(n=3)were less than 9.12%.Conclusion:The method was easy to operate,rapid,accuracy and high in sensitivity,and could be applied in quantitative determination and study of monoamines neurotransmitters and their metabolites in rat plasma.
