title: Alkaline phosphatase at the cell wall of the yeast phase of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.
abstract: The activity of alkaline phosphatase demonstrated by histochemical techniques was shown at the cell wall of the yeast form of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis at 3, 6, and 9 days of culture. The results showed a very active deposition at the cell wall as early as 9 days of culture of the fungus which made us think an inactive salt precipitate was also present.
