1. Further details of the staining of various organs by Gomori's phosphatase technique have been given. 2. A modification of the technique which involves adding sodium alizarin sulphonate to the substrate mixture has been described. 3. A description has been given of the distribution of phosphatase in regenerating bone. 4. It has been found that phosphatase does not appear to be associated with the calcification of the hen's egg. 5. Phosphatase appears to play some part in the secretion of the shell of certain molluscs. 6. The intensity of phosphatase staining of kidney and adrenal was found to be undiminished in scurvy, but the periosteum and regenerating bone were found to stain less intensely than normal in scorbutic animals.
