Abstract:
The aim of the present work was to study the distribution of cytochrome oxidase activity in the visual cortex of kittens in normal conditions. Studies were performed using computer filtration of digitized images of frontal sections. The occurrence of regularly alternating levels of enzyme activity was demonstrated in layers III, IV, and VI of field 17 and layers IV and VI in field 18.
