notes Cerebral cortex of a rat showing pyramidal cells, Golgi-cox stain. Taken at 100x. This is IB 131L slide #67. A Golgi-cox stain stains only about 1-10% of the neurons in a slide---the actual number of pyramidal neurons in the cerebral cortex is much, much higher than apparent in this image. Unlike Nissl stain, axons and dendrites are stained using the Golgi-cox method. The single axon is very long, and these multipolar neurons also have many branched dendrites. Random precipitation of the stain causes small black dots to appear across the image.camera Nikon D70s, original resolution: 300dpi, 3008x2000pxls at 100x magnification
