Fluorometry was employed to measure the noradrenaline (NA) content in rat brain synaptosomes depending on the duration of incubation, depolarization effects (40 mM KCl or 1.5 mM ouabain), composition of the synaptosomal fraction and concentration of the peptides.
The 10-minute incubation in a potassium medium of a suspension of light synaptosomes was used as an optimal test-system for studying the peptide action.
