We report another patient with a circulating alkaline phosphatase/immunoglobulin complex in his blood, and describe a simple method of demonstrating such complexes. On electrophoresis on cellulose acetate, the complex was relatively slow moving and there was no activity in the normal bone/liver isoenzyme region. When the serum was treated with trypsin, the slow band disappeared and the normal pattern was restored.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
