The gas liquid chromatographic method was used in the investigation of catecholamines in the central nervous system of Periplaneta americana. There is evidence of existence of noradrenaline in the thoracic ganglia and in the sixth abdominal glanglion. Noradrenaline might be the neurotransmitter substance in the nervous system of this insect. Besides noradrenaline, some compounds are present in the nervous system, with different retention times from 1-adrenaline, dopamine and homovanillic acid.
采用气-液色谱法对美洲大蠊中枢神经系统中的儿茶酚胺进行了研究。有证据表明，在胸神经节和第六腹神经节中存在去甲肾上腺素。去甲肾上腺素可能是这种昆虫神经系统中的神经递质物质。除去甲肾上腺素外，神经系统中还存在一些化合物，其保留时间与1-肾上腺素、多巴胺和高香草酸不同。
