Whole blood cholinesterase was measured using acetyl-, butyryl- and propionylthiocholine as substrates in 10 healthy adult dogs, cats, horses, pigs, goats, sheep and cows, in order to determine and characterise the cholinesterase activity in whole blood of the main domestic
Anti-cholinesterase insecticides constitute a major portion of modern synthetic pesticides and the assessment of cholinesterase (ChE) inhibition is widely used as a specific biomarker for evaluating the exposure of non-target organisms to these pollutants. However, most studies on this biomarker

The characterization of cholinesterase activity in brain and muscle of gilthead seabream was carried out using four specific substrates and three selective inhibitors. In addition, K
Acetylcholinesterases (AChEs) have been estimated in the infective juveniles (IJs) of eight different strains of heterorhabditid nematodes. The enzyme content ranged from 45.6 to 421.3 units/10(5) IJs with specific activity 34.0 to 82.6 units/mg protein. The isoenzyme patterns revealed the

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) purified from the lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica) was significantly inhibited by higher concentrations of the substrates acetylthiocholine (ATC), acetyl-(beta-methyl) thiocholine (A beta MTC) and propionylthiocholine (PTC). 2. The efficiency of AChE for hydrolyzing different substrates
