A histochemical method for the demonstration of glutamic oxalacetic transaminase was described, using a stabilized diazonium salt which coupled easily with oxalacetate produced by this enzyme reaction. Usefulness and specificity of the method were discussed in the present study. In addition, with the adaptation of this method, a study of the distribution of the transaminase activity in various tissues of rats was performed. High activities were demonstrated in heart muscle, striated skeletal muscle fibers, liver cells, cerebellar folia and proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney.
