Abstract
The dual electrochemical detectors for ordinary and micro high-performance liquid chromatography were briefly reviewed.
The electrochemical behaviors of biogenic amine metabolites were studied by cyclic semi-differential and semi-integral voltammetry with a glassy carbon working electrode. It was found that the electrochemical reactions of many biogenic amine metabolites are quasi-reversible. The dual electrochemical detector based on thin-layer electrolytic cell with two working electrodes (anode and cathode) in series configuration was tested for selective detection of biogenic amine metabolites on their electrochemical quasi-reversibility. The detector was successfully utilized for the simultaneous determination of 3, 4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, homovanillic acid and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid in human urine directly injected by micro high-performance liquid chromatography.
