...Karine Barseghyan; Christopher Gayer; Timur Azhibekov Introduction: Data on laboratory markers of spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP) and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remain sparse. Objective: To compare serum alkaline phosphatase levels in infants with bowel perforation secondary to SIP...

.... Serum Mg was recorded daily for the first week and thereafter each week for a month for each infant. Concurrent calcium, phosphate and alkaline phosphatase were measured. Results: 51 preterm infants (24 female) with a birth weight <1,000 g were included (33 were born at <27 weeks’ gestation...

...Joseph M. Brandes; Jack Atad; Henryk Zuckerman High level of maternal serum alkaline phosphatase (AP) (above 4 Bessey-Lowry units) was found to be indicative of meconium-stained amniotic fluid (AF). Simultaneous maternal serum AP and AF AP were measured in two groups: group A, the study group (78...

...I. Antonowicz; S. Ishida; H. Shwachman The specific activities of α- D -mannosidase, β-glucuronidase, β- D -fucosidase, acid and alkaline phosphatases were studied in meconium from infants with cystic fibrosis (CF) and control subjects. The study revealed significant variations in the specific...

...Emanuel Lebenthal; Menachem Nitzan; P.C. Lee; Barbara L. Chrzanowski; Joseph Krasner The activities of maltase, lactase, alkaline phosphatase and enterokinase were followed in the small intestine of rats during prenatal development. These enzymes were detectable only after the 17th day of gestation...

...A.L. Baetez; W.T. Hubbert; C.K. Graham The activities of aspartate aminotransferase (GOT), alanine aminotransferase (GPT), alkaline phosphatase (alkP), creatine kinase (CPK), and ornithine carbamoyltransferase (OCT) were determined in liver, heart, skeletal muscle, brain, kidney, lung, spleen...

...A. Cao; G. Coppa; F. Marcucci; S. de Virgiliis; E. Giannone Leukocyte alkaline phosphatase (LAP) from cord blood was characterized by means of acrylamide gel disc electrophoresis, eneuraminidase sensitivity, heat inactivation, L-phenylalanine and L-homoargÍnine in hibition and EDTA inactivation...

... (IR) and the influence of insulin (30 µU or 3 mU/ml) on [ 3 H]-thymidine incorporation and on lactase and alkaline phosphatase activities were studied in fetal jejunum and colon (14–19 weeks). We demonstrate the early presence of IR, mainly detected in the basolateral portion of enterocytes...
