Product Overview :
Significance of Measurement: Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is widely distributed in tissues such as liver, bone, kidney, and intestine. It participates in dephosphorylation reactions and is an important clinical biomarker for liver and bone diseases.
Principle of Measurement: ALP catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate esters under alkaline conditions to produce phenol or p-nitrophenol. The reaction product exhibits a characteristic absorbance at 405 nm, which is used to calculate ALP activity.
