โฆ Synopsis
Polymorphism of red cell acid phosphatase (ACP-1; E.C. 3.1.3.2.) has been studied using the Cellogel technique of Martin et al. (1975) in 102 patients with psoriasis and 102 healthy controls. In contrast to two previous reports, no anomalies in distribution of phenotypes were found in patients or in controls.

Red cell acid phosphatase phenotypes of 207 captive animals of the genera Lemur, Hapalemur, and Prophithecus were determined by starch gel electrophoresis and phosphatase-specific staining. In Lemur fulvus, three phenotypes, designated A, B, and AB, were observed. In each of the species L. catta, L.
The results obtained by starch-gel thin layer elcetrophoresis and 4 methyl-umbelliferyl-phosphate as fluorogenic substrate are very satisfactory for forensic purposes also.
A low voltage isoelectric focusing (IEF) method for typing human red cell acid phosphatase (ACPl) polymorphism is reported. A clear differentiation of the ACPl\*A, ACPl\*B and ACPl\*C allelic products is obtained by minimizing diffusion of the bands during electrophoresis and during enzyme visualiza
