Separation of serotonin metabolites from urine on cellulose columns

A procedure for the separation of serotonin metabolites by cellulose column chromatography is described: 24-hr urine from 3–6 rats treated with labeled serotonin was freed from salts, urea, and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid and passed through a cellulose column. A partial resolution of metabolites i...

Summary:A procedure for the separation of serotonin metabolites by cellulose column chromatography is described: 24-hr urine from 3–6 rats treated with labeled serotonin was freed from salts, urea, and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid and passed through a cellulose column. A partial resolution of metabolites in four discrete peaks was achieved. The individual peaks were further subjected to column and paper chromatography, respectively. By this procedure, in addition to 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid, six radiochemically pure serotonin metabolites of indolic structure were obtained.
