ENZYMORPHOLOGY OF RAT BRAIN; β-GLUCURONIDASE, ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE, ESTERASE

Abstract
The enzymorphology technique with chloral hydrate fixative as applied to rat brain gives good preservation of the cell morphology and enzyme activity. The findings are in harmony with those obtained by others using separate techniques. Thus, β-glucuronidase shows an intense activity in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum; α-naphthyl esterase and indoxyl esterase show strong activity in the neurons, astrocytes and their processes and alkaline phosphatase enriched the walls of the capillaries.
