Abstract
"Alkaline" phosphatase disappears or only remains in small amounts in the rabbit and rat kidney after periods of hydronephrosis of 2 to 5 days or more, following complete obstruction of the ureter. By the use of the Gomori-Takamatsu technique it has been possible to distinguish normally functioning from non-functioning cells, when by ordinary histologic stains the cells are indistinguishable.
