Breed

.
Description
photometry
The heat-stable isoenzyme of AP is induced by endogenous or exogenous steroid hormones (especially glucocorticoids, progesterone). It can be used to assess steroid ctivity, particularly if hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing’s syndrome) is suspected.
Only useful in combination with the determination of the 'total AP' if it is elevated. With the sum of all isoenzymes of AP ('total AP') and the heat-stable AP, the residual activity of AP can be determined in percentage.
