TL;DR
The Gomori technique, Wachstein (1946) and Plum (1950) found the alkaline phosphatase activity of blood cells to be confined to the more mature granulocytes, in sharp contrast to inflammatory leucocytoses, leukaenioid reactions and myelofibrosis.
Abstract
The British Journal of Haematology publishes original research papers in clinical, laboratory and experimental haematology. The Journal also features annotations, reviews, short reports, images in haematology and Letters to the Editor.

Preliminary experiments have shown that phosphatase is not destroyed either by alcohol or by exposure to 56°C in completely dehydrated state, and a useable technic has been worked out on the basis of this principle.

It is suggested that the function of the phosphatase found in the brush borders of the proximal tubules of the kidney is to hydrolyse phosphate esters in the glomerular filtrate, and thereby permit the reabsorption of the component molecules by tubular processes.

The leukocytes were investigated and it was found that on incubation in serum or saline the cell alkaline phosphatase activity increased, however, this in vitro rise was unrelated to the source of the serum menstrum.

Three minute fixation in formol vapor at 44 C, followed by 15 minute washing proved to be the most satisfactory fixation procedure for both "acid" and "alkaline" phosphatase technics as applied to bone marrow smears, finding a relation between staining intensity and cellular richness was found.

The acid and alkaline phosphatase activity has been determined on a series of suspensions of white cells obtained from both man and the rabbit by several different methods and it is shown that for both species the alkalineosphatase of white cell suspensions is confined chiefly to the polymorphonuclear leukocyte and the acid phosphat enzyme is chiefly in the lymphocyte, although the polymonphonuclearLeukocyte contains lesser concentrations of this enzyme also.
