title: High-voltage electron microscopy of E-PTA-stained synaptic junctions in the rat frontal cortex.
abstract: The E-PTA-stained synaptic junctions in the adult rat frontal cortex were examined with high-voltage electron microscopy (HVEM). Perforated whole synaptic junctions were clearly shown in the stereo image. The E-PTA staining procedure provides a useful marker for studies of the 3-dimensional structure of synaptic junctions by means of HVEM.
