摘要

A gas chromatographic procedure is described for the analysis of beta-phenylethylamine (PEA) in tissues and body fluids. The method involves the use of pentafluorobenzenesulfonyl chloride for extraction and derivatization of PEA. This is followed by separation and analysis of the derivatized amine on a gas chromatograph equipped with a fused-silica capillary column and an electron-capture detector. The procedure is rapid, provides a stable and sensitive derivative, and has been applied to analysis of PEA in brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, spleen and blood from the rat and urine from human subjects.
