ASSAY AND METHOD FOR MEASURING ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE ACTIVITY IN URINE AS AN INDEX OF TISSUE ZINC DEFICIENCY

A kit comprising two reagents for conducting two different Assays to measure a zinc-activated enzyme in a bodily fluid. The assay results are utilized to obtain a relative zinc-activated enzyme activity value that can be correlated to tissue zinc levels. A more specific embodiment utilizes two paire...

Zusammenfassung:	A kit comprising two reagents for conducting two different Assays to measure a zinc-activated enzyme in a bodily fluid. The assay results are utilized to obtain a relative zinc-activated enzyme activity value that can be correlated to tissue zinc levels. A more specific embodiment utilizes two paired reagents for conducting an A Assay and a B Assay that measure different alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities in a urine sample to obtain a Relative Renal Alkaline Phosphatase Activity (RRAPA) value. The RRAPA value can be correlated to zinc levels in renal tissue.
