- Slowest moving fraction, in blood groups B or O (secretors)

A

Intestinal ALP

22
Q

Placental and Intestinal ALP are inhibited by

A

Phenylalanine

23
Q

Bone ALP is inhibited by what chemical inhibitor

A

3M urea reagent

24
Q

Chemical inhibitor for Bone and Liver ALP

A

Levamisole

25
Q

Total ALP elevations by the liver or bone ALP is differentiated by

A

Heating of serum at 56degC for 10 mins
