The demonstration of choline acetyltransferase activity in cultured vestibular ganglion cells from the fetal rat.
Incubation of vestibular ganglion cells from the rat fetus was successfully done demonstrating bipolar and multipolar cells in the cell cultures produced. Further, the presence of choline-acetyltransferase-positive cells was confirmed immunohistochemically.
