In this investigation, the binding of/sup 3/H-spiperone was studied after intraperitoneal injection into mice. The results of these experiments show that after intraperitoneal injection /sup 3/H-spiperone binds specifically with receptors of the cortex and basal ganglia of the mouse brain. Neuroleptics with varied chemical structure displace /sup 3/H-spiperone from its binding sites. Although after intraperitoneal injection the level of specific binding is rather lower than after intravenous injection, the authors maintain that the relative simplicity, reproducibility, and economy of the method make it more acceptable.
