A new histochemical method using human placenta alkaline phosphatase for demonstrating concanavalin A binding sites on cell surfaces [PDF]
, 1975 Human placenta alkaline phosphatase (HP-ALP), a glycoprotein, was stained histochemically for the purpose of examining the concanavalin A (Con A) binding sites on the cell surface. HP-ALP was bound to the cell surface by Con A.
