Autopsy material from calvarian bones and sutures of two children, was used to determine growth activity by measuring enzyme alkaline Phosphatase activity. In the extremely active periosteum of the 2-day-old boy, differences in growth activity could be demonstrated by reduction of the temperature of the incubation medium from room temperature to 4 C.

The rapid colorimetric test was used in a collaborative study to determine alkaline phosphatase activity in filter paper disks impregnated with skim milk then dried and stored for several months at room temperature. Five samples of filter paper disks (0 to 6 μg phenol/disk) in duplicate were sent to six collaborators for analysis. Computations of analytical and analyst errors showed variations of 22.2 to 48.8%. Most of the variations were due to differences among analysts, but some were partly due to differences in the slopes of the calibration curves (a = 0.05 level) they prepared at the time of analysis. Collaborator's performance was evaluated by comparing % correct results that were positive (negative) with the expected results. About 95% of the samples were correctly analyzed.
