Abstract

The biogenic amines present in the carotid body Type 1 cells of two avian species (Japanese quail and chicken) were identified, by microspectrofluorometry of formaldehyde-induced fluorescence, as dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine respectively. These and other cytochemical properties establish the cells as members of the APUD series.
