Abstract
Summary
Canine prostatic fluid contained a potent acid phosphatase which was more active against the natural β-glycerophosphate than several synthetic organic phosphates tested. A distinction between the enzymes from prostatic fluid and wheat germ oil could be made on the basis of optimal pH requirement. Stoichiometric determinations indicated that the simplicity of phosphate determination was to be preferred to measurement of the released phenyl group derivative.
