title: The histochemical detection of acetylcholine esterase--an indicator of the disintegration of membranes.
abstract: The presence of ACHE in erythrocytes membrane in vitro but not detectable ultrahistochemically has been explored as a sign of membranes disintegration. The final results of the investigations have shown, that the increase in ACHE activity of the erythrocyte membrane is a qualitative sign and a semiquantitative measure of serious disturbances in the membrane structure.
