- An evaluation of the effects that the assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) has on the retrieval of pressure, temperature and the five primary target gases (O3, H2O, CH4, N2O, and HNO3) from spectra to be taken by Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) on the Envisat-1 platform has been conducted. For doing so, non-LTE and LTE limb radiances in the spectral range of 680–2275 cm−1 (4.15–14.6 μm) with a resolution of 0.05 cm−1 at tangent heights from 10 to 70 km have been computed. These calculations included the most updated non-LTE populations of a large number of vibrational levels of the CO2, O3, H2O, CH4, N2O and HNO3 molecules which cause the most prominent atmospheric infrared emissions. A discussion of the most important non-LTE effects on the limb radiances as well as on the retrievals of pressure-temperature and volume mixing ratios of O3, H2O, CH4, N2O, and HNO3 is presented, together with the most important non-LTE issues that could be studied with the future coming of MIPAS data.

- A new model for calculating the populations of the ozone vibrational states under non-LTE (Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium) conditions is presented. In the model, 23 vibrational levels of the O3 molecule, as well as three vibrational levels of the O2 molecule and two vibrational levels of the N2 molecule, are considered. The radiative transfer at the break-down of LTE was treated explicitly for 150 000 ro-vibrational transitions. The populations obtained were used to calculate limb radiances in various spectral regions of the 4.8 and 9.6 μm bands. Test retrievals of O3 vertical volume mixing ratio (VMR) profiles with a radiance model disregarding non-LTE were performed in order to assess the potential impact of non-LTE effects on the retrieval of the O3 abundances from MIPAS (Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding) measurements.

- The use of capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection (CE-LIF) for the analysis of microdialysate samples from the periaqueductal grey matter (PAG) of freely moving rats is described. By employing 3-(4-carboxybenzoyl)-2-quinoline-carboxaldehyde (CBQCA) as a derivatization agent, we simultaneously monitored the concentrations of 8 amino acids (arginine, glutamine, valine, gamma-amino-n-butyric acid (GABA), alanine, glycine, glutamate, and aspartate), with nanomolar and subnanomolar detection limits. Two of the amino acids (GABA and glutamate) were analysed in parallel by conventional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in order to directly compare the two analytical methods. Other CE methods for analysis of microdialysate have been previously described, and this improved method offers greater sensitivity, ease of use, and the possibility to monitor several amino acids simultaneously. By using this technique together with an optimised form of microdialysis technique, the tiny sample consumption and the improved detection limits permit the detection of fast and transient transmitter changes.
