title: Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity in rat osteoblasts and osteocytes.
abstract: Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity, generally known as a distinctive cytochemical feature of osteoclasts, has been demonstrated in osteoblasts and osteocytes in low-temperature glycol methacrylate-embedded rat bone specimens.
