Aim To develop a new method for microdetermination of taurine the composition of antiatherosclerosis, in animal tissues With reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) Methods Animal tissues were soaked in water to extract taurine. The extraction was concentrated by vacuum freezing and drying. Then using the mixed liquid of Phenylisothiocyanate (PITC), triethylamine,water and ethanol (1: 1:1: 7) as derivative to precolumn derived taurine with PITC. Under the following conditions: 1 mL/min flow rate, 254 nm wavelength and col...
