General description

Benzylamine, a primary amine, can be used as a fluorescence derivatization agent for the sensitive and selective determination of analytes by chromatography techniques coupled with fluorescence detection.

Application

Benzylamine may be used as a derivatization agent to increase the sensitivity of 5-hydroxyindoles, catecholamines and catechols in biological samples prior to their determination using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with fluorescence detection.
