Abstract

By use of a mass fragmentographic technique the distribution of piperidine in tissues and changes in levels under physiological conditions were examined. Only trace amounts of piperidine existed in the brain of several animal species, although higher concentrations were detected in other species. In the brain of rats and rabbits, some regional differences were seen and high concentrations were found in the striatum. Piperidine levels in the brain and adrenal gland similarly showed the daily and seasonal rhythmic fluctuations.
