Abstract
THE presence of neurones in the cerebral cortex which are sensitive to acetylcholine has been well established1. The stable substance carbaminoyl choline (carbachol) is also effective2, and we have measured the uptake of carbaminoyl choline chloride (N-methyl-3H) in slices of cerebral cortex from the rat.
