The normal range will depend on the machines in the laboratory where ALP is analyzed. Usually when you send blood to the lab, they have calibrated their machines in such a way that they have a specific normal range (varies by laboratory) and will give that information when releasing the actual value measured by the machine, A general overall normal value would be u/L 10 - 150
