Abstract

The histochemical localization of alkaline phosphatase in sheep parathyroid gland was investigated using light and electron microscopy. The reaction products of enzyme activity were observed by light microscopy in pericytes. By electron microscopy they were limited to the intercellular spaces between the gland cells, being exclusively confined to the external surface of plasma membrane.
