title: A new histochemical method using human placenta alkaline phosphatase for demonstrating concanavalin A binding sites on cell surfaces.
abstract: Human placenta alkaline phosphatase (HP-ALP), a glycoprotein, was stained histochemically for the purpose of examining the concanavalin A (Con A) binding sites on the cell surface. HP-ALP was bound to the cell surface by Con A. This simple method successfully detected Con A binding sites on the cell surface.
