Alkaline phosphatase is detected in both soluble and particulate fractions of rat bone. The concentration of alkaline phosphatase in the particulate fraction of rat skull cap bone and femur is high during the peak period of calcification of these bones suggesting the possibility of using it as a marker for the rate of bone calcification.
... The particular importance of restricting growth early in life may relate to the very high rate of growth that occurs during the ®rst few weeks of life (Marks, 1979), and the lower bone ash content early in life (Wise, 1970b). Murthy et al. (1986), working with rats, have suggested that feed restriction may work by reducing the growth rate of muscle tissues, thereby increasing the relative growth rate of the skeleton. This hypothesis is supported by the ®nding of Pinchasov et al. (1985), that feed restriction increased body ash content. ...
