Enzyme-luminescence method: Tool for real-time monitoring of natural neurotoxins in vitro and l-glutamate release from primary cortical neurons

Novel enzyme-luminescence method is used for the rapid and sensitive in vitro detection of natural neurotoxins (e.g., shellfish and mushroom toxins) using model brain cells. Paralytic shellfish poisons gonyautoxins (e.g., GTX2,3 and GTX1,4) were detected at 1 nM level by their inhibition of glutamat...
