title: Ganglioside GM1 localization in cholinergic neurons visualized by use of a double avidin-biotin complex system.
abstract: Localization of ganglioside GM1 in cholinergic neurons from the septal area of a primary culture newborn rat brain was studied with a double avidin-biotin complex system. Cholinergic neurons were identified by double immunolabeling techniques that use choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and neurofilament (NF) protein-antibodies. ChAT-positive neurons also were stained for ganglioside GM1 by using an avidin-biotin complex technique.
