Cytochemical and biochemical latency of alkaline phosphatase in granules of neutrophilic leucocytes.
Biochemical and cytochemical latency of alkaline phosphatase activity was demonstrated in periotoneal guinea pig leucocytes. By incorporation of a cell homogenate containing intact granules or a cell sonicate into polyacrylamide films, cytochemical latency up to 75% could be demonstrated.
