Alkaline phosphatases. Newer concepts in isoenzymes and clinical applications.
ALP is a profoundly ubiquitous enzyme that originates in many, if not all, mammalian tissues. The development of a simple ISEF technique has allowed reflection of at least 12 cellular components. Improvements in technique may add further zones of information. The aura of darkness surrounding ALP is being slowly dissipated.
