5-Br-4-Cl-3-Indoxyl-alpha-D-gluco(pyrano)side was found to be the most suitable synthetic substrate for the demonstration of alpha-D-glucosidases in situ. Using an azoindoxyl procedure with hexazotized pararosaniline or new fuchsine at pH 5 in freeze-dried celloidine-mounted cryostat sections acid alpha-D-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) was
