Neurotransmitter Analysis
Neurochemistry is the branch of neuroscience that focuses on the chemicals generated by and which influence the nervous system: neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, neuropeptides, amino acids, and others. Amuza specializes in microdialysis sampling, HPLC-ECD analysis, and fiber photometry. Amuza’s neurotransmitter analysis products and services enable researchers to create highly accurate, time-resolved snapshots of multiple neurochemicals in virtually any region of the brain, continuing to advance the discoveries of neurochemistry.

Neurotransmitter Detection
Neurochemical analysis can be done using a neurotransmitter detection method. HPLC-ECD has become invaluable for studies requiring careful monitoring of neurochemistry, such as dopamine in pain research and Glu/GABA in alcoholism and addiction studies.
HPLC-ECD, The Most Reliable Way to Measure Neurotransmitter Levels
HPLC-ECD reliably measures neurotransmitter levels in microdialysate, tissue, biological fluids, and other samples. Data from an HPLC-ECD is easy to interpret, even when you are measuring multiple analytes simultaneously. You get absolute values for concentration, as opposed to just relative changes from baseline. The technique is also exquisitely sensitive, with sub-femtomole limits of detection (LOD).
