Abstract
Vanilmandelic acid and homovanillic acid in a small quantity of urine from a patient with neuroblastoma were purified by adsorption on Amberlite XAD-4, with 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethanol added as an internal standard, and converted to trifluoroacetyl-hexafluoroisopropyl derivatives. Their quantities were determined by the use of a gas chromatograph equipped with a 2% OV-17 column and an electron capture detector.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
