title: Cytochemical localization of 5'-nucleotidase in glial plasma membranes.
abstract: By means of a cytochemical procedure 5'-nucleotidase activity is demonstrated electron microscopically. The enzyme is present in plasma membranes of astrocytes, oligodendroglial cells and microglial cells, but not in neuronal plasma membranes.
