For assaying plasma cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) activity and phenotyping by means of dibucaine inhibition, we have compared a commercially available kit, in which butyrylthiocholine is used as substrate, with two reference methods, one using benzoylcholine and the other propionylthiocholine. With
Tris-(2,3-Dibromopropyl) Isocyanurate, a New Emerging Pollutant, Impairs Cognition and Provokes Depression-Like Behaviors in Adult Rats.
A phytochemical study on Huperzia serrata led to the isolation of four new 5-deoxyfawcettimine-related Lycopodium alkaloids, huperserines A-D (1-4), and one new lycodine-type alkaloid, huperserine E (5). Their structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic data, including 1D and 2D NMR

Organophosphorus compounds (OP) are bound to human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and endogenous or exogenous BChE may act as a stoichiometric scavenger. Adequate amounts of BChE are required to minimize toxic OP effects. Simultaneous administration of BChE and oximes may transfer the
