Neurotransmitter Detection Assay
Neurotransmitters are the key players in transmitting signals between neurons, thus influencing a wide array of physiological and psychological processes. Understanding their levels, dynamics, and interactions is paramount for elucidating the underpinnings of conditions such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and anxiety disorders. Creative Biolabs provides a full range of in vitro neurotransmitter detection assays that enable researchers to comprehensively study different neurotransmitters.
Methods for Neurotransmitter Detection
- Electrochemical Detection
One common method employed in neurotransmitter detection assays is electrochemical detection. This technique utilizes electrodes to measure the current generated during the oxidation or reduction of neurotransmitters. Creative Biolabs provides a range of electrochemical sensors and electrodes to facilitate this precise measurement.
- High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
HPLC is a powerful technique that separates and quantifies neurotransmitters based on their chemical properties. By analyzing the retention times and concentration of neurotransmitters in a sample, researchers gain valuable insights into their presence and quantity.
- Mass Spectrometry
Mass spectrometry offers high sensitivity and specificity in detecting neurotransmitters. Creative Biolabs employs advanced mass spectrometry equipment to accurately measure even trace amounts of these crucial molecules.
- Immunological Assays
Immunological assays, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and radioimmunoassays (RIA), are also utilized for neurotransmitter detection. These assays rely on the interaction between antibodies and neurotransmitters. Our company provides tailor-made immunological assays with a focus on precision and reproducibility.
