ALP is used in molecular biology to remove the phosphate at the 5' end of DNA thus preventing its self ligation. ALP activity is used in the dairy industry as a marker for successful pasteurization since it does not denature at temperatures which kill bacteria in milk. | ALP is used in molecular biology to remove the phosphate at the 5' end of DNA thus preventing its self ligation.
