Summary
The enzymes cytochromoxydase, lactic-, succino-dehydrogenase, DPNH- and TPNH-diaphorase as well as β-glucuronidase, β-galactoidases, β-glucosidase and arylsulfatase were analysed in the paraventricular and supraoptic nucleus of the brains of 36 female rats.
SDH and CyO showed a lower activity while LDH, DPNH-di and TPNH-di could be proved distinctly.
On proving glycosidases the reactions were only moderate. A certain proof of arylsulfatase could not be furnished.
Zusammenfassung
An den Gehirnen von 36 weiblichen Ratten wurden die Enzyme Cytochromoxydase, Lactat-, Succinodehydrogenase, DPNH- und TPNH-Diaphose, sowie β-Glucuronidase, β-Galactosidase, β-Glucosidase und Arylsulfatase in den neurosekretorischen Kernen untersucht.
SDH und CyO zeigten eine niedrige Aktivität, während LDH, DPNH-Di und TPNH-Di deutlich nachweibsar waren.
Die Reaktionen beim Glykosidennachweis fielen nur schwach aus, ein sicherer Nachweis der Arylsulfatase gelang nicht.
