Abstract Using high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection, we determined serotonin in plasma from parkinsonian patients being treated with L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine or N-(DL-seryl)-N'(2,3,4-trihydroxybenzyl)hydrochloride plus L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine ("Sinemet") and in serum from a blood bank, from "normal" persons, and a pooled specimen from a hospital clinical laboratory. The values obtained for the two groups of Parkinson's disease patients showed no significant difference. Long-term storage on solid CO2 was xhown to be an adequate technique for preserving samples. The mean (+/-SEAM) normal value obtained for serotonin in serum was 146 +/- 46 microgram/liter (n = 23), a result in harmony with that previously obtained [Clin. Chem. 20, 812 (1974)] by fluorometry. In comparison to other methods for measurement of serotonin in serum or plasma, we believe that the present scheme offers greater selectivity, sensitivity, and precision.

Abstract The procedure for serum alkaline phosphatase determination employing phenolphthalein monophosphate as substrate was evaluated under routine clinical laboratory conditions. A straight-line response to increasing serum concentration was observed, and the reaction was shown to be Mg++ dependent. The method proved to be extremely simple, and the results obtained correlated well with those given by a standard routine procedure involving determination of the liberated inorganic phosphate.
