Abstract:
: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.
