✦ Synopsis
Conventional techniques for postmortem acquisition of brains have several shortcomings for biochemical research. The authors describe the development of a technique for acquisition of brains by rapid autopsy and the practical details and problems of setting up the research programme. The techniques were established for the investigation of excitatory amino acid neurotransmitters.
