Abstract
A histochemical technique utilizing a paranitrophenyl substituted ditetra-zolium salt is used to localize the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in the adrenal cortex of the rat. This method showed the enzyme to be very active in the fascicular and reticular zones. In contrast, activity in the glomerulosa was low.Keywords
