概要 While dopamine (DA) may be clearly detected by voltammetric techniques such as fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) in the heavily-innervated striatum, the differentiation of DA from other monoamines, including norepinephrine (NE) and serotonin (5-HT), is crucial for further applications outside of the striatum. We show that using normal pulse voltammetry (NPV) with 0.1 V to 0.3 V rectangular pulses can differentiate between NE and DA. While the major electrochemical current of NE and DA is obtained on 0.2 V rectangular pulse of NPV, the relative current on 0.1 V pulse was higher for DA than NE. It was possible to differentiate NE from DA by electrochemical current on three NPV pulses using simple mathematics of sequential equation. Since FSCV obtains a larger current value and less noisy results than NPV, we alternately recorded both. The electrochemical current data of NPV was combined with FSCV for principal component regression (PCR) analysis. The estimated value was evaluated by percent error and correlation coefficient from the true concentration, and the slope of the linear regression line. Estimation by sequential equation using NPV results could differentiate NE from DA, while PCR without NPV current data could not. PCR including NPV current data also could differentiate NE from DA. In this study, we compared the performance of electrochemical recordings with rectangular and triangular waveforms under the same conditions, and the advantages and disadvantages became very clear. Together with our previous finding of significant differentiation of pH changes from monoamines on rectangular pulses of NPV, the combined use of rectangular and triangular pulses would improve the molecular identification of monoamines in the brain using voltammetric recording.
