Because cerebral species involve rapid events, increasing the temporal resolution to realize in vivo near-real-time measurements is desirable. Here, we aimed to improve the low resolution of our previous on-line electroanalytical system by decreasing the dead volume and reducing molecular dispersion. This updated system has advantages of elevated time resolution and accelerated analysis for on-line monitoring of glucose versus the previous system. Finally, this new system was successfully applied to continuous measurement of cerebral glucose in vivo during global ischemia/reperfusion events. This study is expected to offer a reliable on-line analytical platform for continuous monitoring of important species associated with fast physiological and pathological events in vivo.
