An automated method is described for determining alkaline phosphatase activity in serum, with use of sodium thymolphthalein monophosphate as the substrate. The system makes use of standard AutoAnalyzer components, has a simple flow diagram, and does not involve dialysis. The method has good precision, and the results correlate well with those from the manual method of which it is an adaptation.

conclusions based on our results, the administration of fe3o4-nps causes dose dependent adverse effects on liver. background because of their unique magnetic properties, fe3o4 nanoparticles (fe3o4-nps) have extensive applications in various biomedical aspects. investigation of the possible adverse aspects of these particles has lagged far behind their fast growing application. objectives the cu...

We determined plasma (serum alkaline phosphatase activity in 854 healthy students of the Rochester, Minnesota, public schools. Prepubertal girls had somewhat greater upper limits than did boys, and there was a low trend of increasing activity in both sexes. At the beginning of adolescence increasing activities were observed, which peaked at ages 11 to 12 years in girls and at ages 13 to 14 in b...

Background Recently, the clinical use of low power lasers has increased, and it is said that wound healing is accelerated by their irradiation. The aim of this study was evaluation of the effect of platelet-rich plasma on proliferation and differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells with or without Ga-Al-As laser. Methods: In this experimental study, human lower third molar dental pulp c...

The outbreaks caused by Vibrio spp. are a notable threat to the potential growth of economy penaeid culture, which is still controlled administration antibiotics. At first, infected group was subjected phenotypic bacteriological examination with subsequent molecular identification via 16S rRNA gene sequencing, confirmed four strains spp., V. atlanticus, natriegens, alginolyticus, and harveyi, f...

Alkaline phosphatase activity was detected in salivary gland cells of the Rhodnius neglectus Lent, 1954, and R. prolixus Stal, 1859, vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi Chagas, 1909 (etiological agent of Chagas disease) and T. rangeli Tejera, 1920 (pathogenic to insect). The Gomori technique was used to demonstrate alkaline phosphatase activity. Alkaline phosphatase activity was observed throughout th...

OBJECTIVE Bone metastasis is frequently associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The diagnosis and follow-up of bone metastatic patients usually relies on skeletal X-ray and bone scintigraphy, which are time-consuming and costly. This study aimed to evaluate whether serum alkaline phosphatase offers clinical value in predicting the clinical response and survival outcome for skeletal metastatic...
