Native Calf Alkaline Phosphatase

Stable for one year at -20C.

Calf intestinal Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a hydrolase enzyme responsible forremoving phosphate groups in the 5- and 3- positions from many types of molecules, including nucleotides, proteins, and alkaloids. In humans, Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ispresent in all tissues throughout the entire body, but is particularly concentrated in liver, bile duct, kidney, bone, and the placenta. The optimal pH for calf intestine Alkalinephosphatase (ALP) enzyme activity is pH 10 in standard conditions. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is used in the detection of hepatobiliary disease, bonedisease and biliary tree and intrahepatic obstruction. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), also known as Orthophosphoric-MonoesterPhosphohydrolase, is used in laboratory tests to diagnose liver disease or monitor itscourse. An alkaline phosphatase (ALP) test may also be used to evaluate the liver whenmedications are taken that can damage the liver. Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) levels canbe used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for Paget's disease.
