THE ELECTRON PROBE IN ENZYME HISTOCHEMISTRY

Enzyme histochemistry of skeletal muscle.

This is the first of three papers on the application of enzyme histochemical techniques to the study of developing and diseased muscle. This paper will deal with developing muscle in various laboratory animals, the second with developing human muscle, and the third with hereditary neurogenic atrophies in infancy and childhood. In 1678 Stefano Lorenzini had already observed that animal muscle co...

Enzyme histochemistry of acute staphylococcal enterotoxin gastroenteritis in rhesus monkeys.

Current concepts of enzyme histochemistry in modern pathology.

Enzyme histochemistry serves as a link between biochemistry and morphology. It is based on metabolization of a substrate provided to a tissue enzyme in its orthotopic localization. Visualization is accomplished with an insoluble dye product. It is a sensitive dynamic technique that mirrors even early metabolic imbalance of a pathological tissue lesion, combined with the advantage of histotopogr...

Electron Probe Microanalysis

The section on tranquilizers comprises three chapters: (1) Phenothiazine derivatives by P. B. Bradley, (2) Rauwolfia derivatives by J. J. Lewis and (3) Diphenylmethane derivatives by T. R. Sherrod. The first two are, quite justifiably, restricted to detailed accounts of the pharmacology of chlorpromazine and reserpine respectively, which are treated as model compounds representative of their ch...
