title: Cytochrome oxidase content of rat brain during development.
abstract: The cytochrome oxidase concentration and content of rat brain during development was measured using a simple new assay for cytochrome a. The cytochrome oxidase concentration increased from 1.2 nmol/g wet wt. of brain at birth to about 5.5 nmol/g in the adult, most of the change occurring between 5 and 25 days after birth.
