title: Polymorphism of the red cell acid-phosphatase in Tuscany by starch-gel thin layer electrophoresis and fluorogenic substrate.
abstract: The red cell acid-phosphatase types were determined in 495 individuals from Tuscany, Italy. The observed frequencies of the three alleles are: ACPA1 = 0.271; ACPB1 = 0.665 and ACPC1 = 0.064. The results obtained by starch-gel thin layer electrophoresis and 4 methyl-umbelliferyl-phosphate as fluorogenic substrate are very satisfactory for forensic purposes also.
