L-3-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)alanine (DOPA) and its 3-O-methyl metabolite (OMD) were measured in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid by a new assay which combines N,O-acetylation of amino acids in aqueous media, preparation of pentafluorobenzyl esters under anhydrous conditions, and analysis by gas chromatography-electron capture
