This technique employs acetylthiocholine iodide as the substrate for cholinesterase activity and silver nitrate impregnation of preterminal axons. The procedure is rapid, simple and uses fresh muscles. Intramuscular nerves, preterminal axons and myoneural junctions are stained simultaneously brown or black with minimal background staining of connective tissue and muscle fibers.240-242engacetylthiocholinemyoneural junctionspreterminal axonssilver impregnationComplete staining of nerve fiber and myoneural junctions with acetylthiocholine and silverArtigo10.3109/10520299709082246WOS:A1997YJ75000002Acesso restrito
