Enzyme immunoassay for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase

KW Lam, M Siemens, T Sun, CY Li and LT Yam

An immunochemical method for quantitative analysis of the tartrate- resistant acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2), band 5, is presented. This method involves precipitation of the enzyme from the serum by the antibody specific to band 5 and by sheep anti-rabbit immunoglobulin, followed by analysis of the enzyme activity in the precipitate. The precipitation procedure eliminates the interferences of the tartrate- sensitive phosphatase of all tissues, of the tartrate-resistant phosphatase of erythrocytes, and of unknown substances that interfere with the colorimetric method. We compare the present method with previously described colorimetric and electrophoretic methods.
