The metabolism of [3H]noradrenaline released by electrical stimulation from the isolated nictitating membrane of the cat and from the vas deferens of the rat

1. The noradrenaline (NA) stores of the isolated medial muscle of the cat's nictitating membrane were labelled with [3H]NA and the tissue was set up in an isolated organ bath for field stimulation. The tritiated NA and its metabolites released spontaneously and by field stimulation were determined by scintillation counting following chromatographic separation.
