Fluorometric Determination of Urinary Metanephrine and Normetanephrine
Abstract A detailed procedure for the quantitative determination of metanephrine and normetanephrine is given. Epinephrine and norepinephrine are eliminated by selective adsorption on an alumina column. Metanephrine and normetanephrine are isolated with a cation-exchange resin.
