Abstract

1. The biochemical assay of alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) activity was achieved in the kidney of Triturus cristatus adult specimens treated with arginine vasotocin (AVT) and prolactin (PRL) 2. in normal animals the activity of alkaline phosphatase in the terrestrial phase is almost half that in the aquatic phase. 3. AVT treatment consistently elicited a marked reduction in the enzyme activity. 4. No change in renal alkaline phosphatase activity was induced by PRL tratment in terrestrial animals.
