Abstract
Investigation of bovine nasal secretion has revealed a higher activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) than that found in serum. However it is not clear whether ALP is synthesized in the nasal tissue and the type of ALP isozyme that is produced in the secretion. The aim of this study was to measure the level of ALP activity and to separate the ALP isozymes in bovine nasal secretion and in extracts of relevant bovine tissues by isoelectric focusing (IEF).
