title: Enhancement of acetylcholine secretion by two sulfhydryl reagents.
abstract: Two sulfhydryl reagents (N-ethyl maleimide and p-chloromercuribenzoate), used in a concentration of 0.1 mmol/l, increased both spontaneous and evoked acetylcholine secretion at the toad neuromuscular junction, the former in the absence of extracellular calcium ions.
