Comparisons were made of purified acetylcholinesterase from the heads of wild type house flies with a mutant form (which bound organophosphates and carbamates less tightly). Using 12 substrates and 6 quaternary inhibitors, the only substantial difference was that the Km

The hydrolysis of long-chain alkanoylcholines catalyzed by butyrylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) has been studied. Radiolabelled substrates have been used and a radiochromatographic detection method developed earlier has been applied. The long-chain choline esters were found to be excellent substrates for butyrylcholinesterase

Acetylcholine levels of whole blood from 80 healthy subjects were determined by pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass fragmentography. Acetylcholine was extracted from 1.2 ml of venous blood in the presence of eserine, demethylated by pyrolysis, and assayed by selected ion-current monitoring using butyrylcholine
