Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of cytochrome oxidase activity in the visual cortex of normal kittens. Method of computer filtration of digital images of frontal sections was used. The periodicity of enzyme activity in layers III, IV, VI of area 17 and in layers IV, VI of area 18 has been shown.
