Specific radioisotopic assay for cholinesterase. Technical report, December 1987-March 1988
1990
The radiometric method (I) for measuring ChE activity was modified to preclude the use of p-dioxane, a hazardous material. The modified procedure (II) uses 0.4 N perchloric acid (PCA), instead of p-dioxane, to denature the ChE and stop hydrolysis of 14C-acetylcholine (ACh). The unreacted substrate (ACh) is removed by cationic exchange resin suspended in water. The supernatant (acidic water solution) containing the product of hydrolysis, 14C-acetic acid, is mixed with nonhazardous scintillation cocktail and counted. The incubation mixture (37 degrees C) for II is similar to I and is composed of 0.1 ml of buffer-salt solution (pH 7.8), 0.1 ml of guinea pig whole blood (WB)-water suspension and 0.1 ml of 3mM ACh solution.
