Abstract
Human carotid bodies were examined with a fluorescence method for histochemical visualization of certain monoamines. Cells with a green to yellow-green fluorescence containing catecholamines, presumably norepinephrine, and yellow fluorescent cells containing 5-hydroxytryptamine were found. The presence of the two monoamines was established by fluorescence microspectrophotometry.
