  • Title: A comparative study of the Bessey method and Hausamen method for serum alkaline phosphatase determination.
    Author: Galanti B, Nardiello S, Russo M, Giusti G.
    Journal: Enzyme; 1976; 21(4):374-8. PubMed ID: 939228.
    Abstract:
    The methods of Bessey et al. and Hausamen et al. for serum alkaline phosphatase determination were compared. Determinations were carried out using sera from healthy blood donors and sera from patients suffering from different hepatobiliary diseases. A high reproducibility of values obtained using both methods was noted. The sensitivity of the method of Hausamen et al. is about four times greater than that of the method of Bessey et al., even though the former method employed a lower reaction temperature. A high degree of correlation exists between the two methods and the data reported indicate that both methods are completely valid.
