background: cryptorchidism is a common malformation in neonates; surgery or medical treatments are applied during childhood. untreated cryptorchid testes are in the risk of intratubular germ cell neoplasia (igcn) and consequently invasive testicular tumors which could be shown by immunohistochemistry staining for placental like acid phosphatase (plap) marker. objective: we designed this study t...

drought resistance is a very important characteristic needed for plant survival especially at germination stage, in arid and semi-arid lands. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. these enzymes are responsible for dephosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted in two bread wheat cultivars (sardari and alvand) under s...

Background: Gibberellic acid (GBA) is a naturally occurring and commercially produced plant growth regulator which may cause a variety of effects including the stimulation of seed germination in some cases. Histochemical changes in testicular tissue including carbohydrates, lipids and alkaline phosphatase enzyme changes were evaluated. Materials and Methods: Twenty seven mature male rats after ...

water and soil salinity are two of the most important limiting factors in crop production. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. phosphatase enzymes are responsible for de-phosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted using two bread wheat cultivars, namely, iniya66 and ghods along with application of different nacl p...

in order to assess the effect of salinity constraint on some agro-physiological and biochemical traits in medicago sativa l., four alfalfa populations (tafilalet 1, tafilalet 2, demnate and tata), originated from mountains and oasis of morocco, were tested. the plants were grown under greenhouse conditions in pots filled with sand and peat under three salt treatments (0, 100 and 200 mm nacl). t...

We developed an assay to measure at acid pH the phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity in sera from patients with prostatic cancer. The method used quantifies the inorganic phosphate liberated from phosphotyrosine after incubation with serum, followed by the deproteinization of the reaction mixture. A high acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) activity towards phosphotyrosine was observed in all sera fro...
