Plasma alkaline phosphatase assay: interconversion of results by two methods.
نویسنده
چکیده
Two methods for measuring plasma alkaline phosphatase activity are compared: one makes use of phenyl phosphate, carbonate-bicarbonate buffer, and continuous-flow methodology; the other of p-nitrophenyl phosphate, diethanolamine buffer, and reaction-rate analysis. Results by the methods correlate well (r = 0.98) over a wide range of values (up to 10-fold the upper limit of normal). A factor can therefore be applied to convert results by one method into those that would be obtained by the other. The possibility that the presence of different proportions of isoenzymes in the plasma will affect this factor is considered. We have used the new method, with a conversion factor, as the routine method of alkaline phosphatase measurement in a clinical chemistry laboratory, with no problems.

Quantification and comparison of bone-specific alkaline phosphatase with two methods in normal and paget’s specimens
Background: Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) is synthesized by the osteoblasts and is presumed to be involved in the calcification of bone matrix, though its precise role in the formation process is unknown. The aim of the present study was to measure the BAP activity in Paget's and normal specimens by two different techniques. Methods: Total ALP (TAP) as well as BAP activity-measuring ...

متن کاملAn Alkaline Phosphatase Reporter Gene Assay for Induction of CYP3A4 In Vitro
CYP3A4 probably has the broadest catalytic activity of any cytochrome P450. It is a crucial task to test new drug candidates in a reliable system for their ability to induce expression of this enzyme. Firstly, a total of 300 bp core distal enhancer of CYP3A4 XREM region (-7972/-7673) were amplified from human genomic DNA. The PCR product was then ligated into a human secretory alkaline phosphat...
