Gomori nonspecific alkaline phosphatase stain

Go·mo·ri non·spe·cif·ic al·ka·line phos·pha·tase stain

(gō-mō'rē), a calcium-cobalt sulfide method using frozen sections or cold acetone- or formalin-fixed paraffin sections, plus sodium β-glycerophosphate as a substrate at pH 9-9.5 with Mg2+ as activator; calcium ions precipitate the liberated phosphate, cobalt salt replaces the calcium phosphate, and ammonium sulfide converts the product to a black cobalt sulfide.
