Choline acetyltransferase (ChAc) was localized at the neuromuscular junctions of rabbit diaphragm with immunohistochemical staining, which produced a brown color, in combination with histochemical staining for cholinesterase, which produced a blue color, in the same section. The innervations of nerve terminals at the neuromuscular junctions were comparable when a silver impregnation was substituted for the immunohistochemical staining of ChAc.
