The method is called "microdialysis" and it works almost exactly equal
as a common dialysis through semipermeant membranes. If you want to know
more about the technique you could contact the following people:
Sandra Lev       sandra at iibce.edu.uy
Federico Dajas   fdajas at iibce.edu.uy

They are specialized neuroscientists working on the microdialysis field.
They can talk to you about methodology and can recommend you even more
specialized contacts in your country.

Best regards,

Mariano Viapiano.
