Highly sensitive immuno-assays for the determination of cotinine in serum and saliva. Comparison between RIA and an avidin-biotin ELISA.

Two immuno-assay methods (RIA and ELISA) have been developed for the accurate and sensitive measurement of cotinine in human body fluids (serum, saliva). RIA uses [3H]cotinine as antigen and charcoal/dextran for separating cotinine-bound antibodies from the free derivative. Another technique (ELISA) was developed to avoid the use of radio-labelled compounds and to determine cotinine in large populations, including passive or non-smokers who usually present very low concentrations.

A functional response to D1 dopamine receptor stimulation in the central nervous system: inhibition of the release of [3H]-serotonin from the rat substantia nigra.

The influence of dopamine receptor agonists on the calcium dependent electrically-evoked release of [3H]-serotonin was studied in the superfused rat substantia nigra. The electrically-evoked overflow of [3H]-serotonin was significantly inhibited by micromolar concentrations of exogenous dopamine and of the D1-selective dopamine receptor agonists, fenoldopam and SKF 38393. The inhibitory effects of dopamine and fenoldopam on [3H]-serotonin release were antagonized by the D1-selective dopamine receptor antagonist SCH 23390.
