title: [Modifications of cytochemical methods of detecting alkaline and acid phosphatase activities of leukocytes].
abstract: Wide use of the detection of the leukocytic alkaline and acid phosphatase (AIP and AP) activities by the azo coupling method has necessitated the development of rational modifications of the routine methods. When staining just few smears, it is recommended that the neutrophilic AIP activity be detected by applying the incubation medium onto the filter paper covering the blood smear; such a modification, used for the staining of 1-6 blood smears, reduces the reagent consumption by 5-6 times and is time-saving. The modification of the method for the detection of the leukocytic AP activity involves the use of the diazole blue O stain manufactured in this country; the acetate-veronal buffer (containing sodium diethylbarbital) is replaced by citrate buffer, pH 6.4. The leukocytic AIP and AP activities, determined in the blood smears stained according to the suggested and routine methods, coincide (p greater than 0.05).
