Characterization of flunitrazepam and beta-carboline high affinity binding in bovine pineal gland
High affinity binding of3H-fiunitrazepam (FNZP) to crude membrane preparations of bovine pineal membranes was examined by a rapid filtration procedure through Whatman GFB paper. At 0 °C binding reached equilibrium in about 20 min. Scatchard analysis of data at equilibrium revealed a single populatio...
