✦ Synopsis

A new approach to study the effect of ischemia on the brain of the awake gerbil is described. The measurement of NADH fluorescence from the surface of the cortex is done by a time-sharing fluorometer/reflectometer connected to the brain via a flexible light guide and an implanted cannula. The response of the gerbil brain to anoxia and spreading depression is described. By unilateral occlusion of the carotid artery an increase in NADH was measured in the ipsilateral hemisphere.

An extraction procedure using mixtures of phenol, chloroform, and isoamyl alcohol originally applied to quench mitochondria for determining adenylates proved suitable also for the quantification of reduced and oxidized pyridine nucleotides yielding recoveries of more than 90%. In combination with HP
