Molecular Pathology, 2002 Acid phosphatases (APs) are a family of enzymes that are widespread in nature, and can be found in many animal and plant species. Mystery surrounds the precise functional role of these molecular facilitators, despite much research. Yet, paradoxically, human APs have had considerable impact as tools of clinical investigation and intervention.

Enzymatic activity toward poly(L-lactic acid) implants [PDF]
, 1990 Tissue reactions toward biodegradable poly(L-lactic acid) implants were monitored by studying the activity pattern of seven enzymes as a function of time: alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, -naphthyl acetyl esterase, -glucuronidase, ATP-ase, NADH ...

Characterization of Arabidopsis Acid Phosphatase Promoter and Regulation of Acid Phosphatase Expression [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2000 AbstractThe expression and secretion of acid phosphatase (APase) was investigated in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L. Czern.) plants using sensitive in vitro and activity gel assays. Phosphorus (P) starvation induced two APases in Indian mustard roots, only one of which was secreted.

A histochemical study of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes in an eosinophilic granuloma of parotid gland region [PDF]
, 1964 We experienced a case of eosinophilic granuloma in soft tissue, and demonstrated its patterns of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes histochemically. Neutrophils were rich in acid phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.
