  2. Then all the rats were killed by bloodletting of femoral artery to examine the activities of serum total alkaline phosphatase ( ALP ), bone alkaline phosphatase ( B-ALP ) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase ( TRACP ).
  3. Six weeks later, changes of calcium, phosphonium, total alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase in serum were measured. Bone mineral content and mineral density in cancellous bone were examined.
  4. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase, total antioxidant capacity, alkaline phosphatase and MDA content in serum were detected.
  5. The results indicate that oral administration of insulin stimulates a increase in mucosal weight and protein content in the small intestine, specifically in the distal ileum, and total activities of lactase, maltase and alkaline phosphatase in the small intestinal contents.
