Microspectrography of formaldehyde and fluorescamine-induced fluorescence in rabbit pulmonary neuroepithelial bodies: demonstration of a new, probably polypeptide intracytoplasmic substance.
The microspectrographic analysis of the fluorescence emitted by NEB's in gaseous formaldehyde-fixed lung tissue, posttreated with fluorescamine, revealed the presence of numerous primary amino groups which are clearly different from the serotonin identified in our earlier studies and correspond to a new, probably a polypeptide intracytoplasmic substance.
