TY - JOUR T1 - AN IMPROVED COLORIMETRIC METHOD FOR THE ESTIMATION OF HISTAMINE JF - Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics JO - J Pharmacol Exp Ther SP - 425 LP - 431 VL - 92 IS - 4 AU - SANFORD M. ROSENTHAL AU - HERBERT TABOR Y1 - 1948/04/01 UR - http://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/92/4/425.abstract N2 - A colorimetric method for the detection of histamine has been developed. It has been adapted for the determination of free and conjugated histamine in animal tissues and body fluids. Preliminary results upon various tissues, and with histaminase, indicate a satisfactory degree of specificity. The sensitivity of the method is approximately 0.5 microgram. 1948 by The American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics ER -
