Abstract

An ion exchange batchwise procedure was developed for the estimation of substance P degradation by rat brain fractions using 3H[Nle11]substance P as tracer. With this very sensitive and rapid method an especially high degradative activity was found among others in the microsomal fractions of the striatum.
