✦ Synopsis

Bioassay procedures have been the prerequisite for detection, purification, elucidation of the structure and the synthesis of neurohypophysial hormones. After a review of the history of these bioassays and of the standard preparations including international standards, the current international standards and the bioassay methods prescribed by the pharmacopoeias are described. Some important methodological details are also mentioned.

## Abstract Blood concentrations of oxytocin (OT), vasopressin (VP) and their associated neurophysins were measured before and after the first electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) given to 12 depressed patients. The maximum concentrations of all four peptides coincided at +2 min, but the increases in OT
