A tissue cutting technique for the histochemical demonstration of succinic dehydrogenase activity in brain tissue is described. The demonstration of succinic dehydrogenase in fine and delicate structures depends on a tissue temperature of –3 to –2°C. during cutting. Artefacts such as coarse granules, loss of activity and diffusion of stain are prevented by minimizing of traumatic effects due to this improved technique.
