Direct electrochemical measurement of metanephrines in spot urine samples for the diagnosis of phaeochromocytomas
Abstract Metanephrines (MNs) were suggested as a potential first-line biochemical index for the diagnosis of phaeochromocytomas (PHEO). In this study, we developed a simple electrochemical method for the quantitative measurement of MNs in spot urine samples. As MNs contain a hydroxyphenyl group, the...
