EFFECTS OF BERYLLIUM SULFATE ON SERUM ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE IN PRIMATES.

Abstract

The effects of intratracheally administered beryllium sulfate on serum alkaline phosphatase were studied in male Macaca mulatta monkeys. Results showed 80% and 50% inhibition of the serum enzyme at 2 and 4 hours postinjection, respectively. Additional experiments were conducted using aluminum sulfate under identical conditions, and no inhibition of serum alkaline phosphatase was noted. (Author)
