Determination of serum cholinesterase activity and dibucaine numbers by an amperometric choline sensor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Serum cholinesterase activity and the dibucaine numbers have been determined by using a hydrogen peroxide electrode and the enzyme choline oxidase immobilized on a nylon net. The analysis procedure is extremely simple and very fast allowing 30 cholinesterase determinations per hour. Both cholinesterase activity and dibucaine number measurements could be performed in 5 min and by using serum samples of only 10 microliters. When used in sera the probe showed no interference from electroactive compounds present in blood, and also showed good stability and reproducibility. These features make this sensor appropriate for continuous extracorporeal circuit blood monitoring of succinylcholine during surgery.

AMPEROMETRIC MICROBIOSENSOR FOR THE DETERMINATION OF CHOLINE
The construction and performance of an amperometric microbiosensor for the determination of choline chloride by immobilizing choline oxidase on a cellulose acetate membrane are described. The procedure of choline determination involved the electrochemical detection of enzymatically generated hydrogen peroxide. This microsensor has a linear response between 0.038-0.1 mM choline chloride. The...

In this study, a commercially available kit in which propionylthiocholine is used as a substrate and a dibucaine solution to determine the variants of the enzyme were utilized. Plasma cholinesterase activity of 151 patients who underwent different operations was measured during a period of six months. The mean±SD of the enzyme activity in 150 patients was 4.39±1.17 kU/L .. Seventeen patie...
متن کاملA source of error in the determination of inhibitor constants of serum cholinesterase.
The effect of temperature on the inhibition of serum cholinesterase by dibucaine, fluoride and chloride has been studied. It is found that the dibucaine and chloride numbers together are capable of differentiating the inherited enzyme variants at 30° and 37°C. Fluoride numbers contribute little information at these temperatures; indeed fluoride inhibition is so sensitive to temperature change t...
متن کاملRapid Estimation of Serum Cholinesterase Activity Using the Astrup Micro Equipment.
A rapid micro technique for the estimation of serum cholinesterase is described. Acetylcholine bromide is incubated with serum within the capillary of the Astrup electrode. The enzyme hydrolyses the substrate with the liberation of acetic acid. This causes a fall of pH which is seen on the galvanometer of the instrument and the rate of this fall is shown to be proportional to enzyme concentrati...

Serum pseudocholinesterase activity in pregnant women was assayed spectrophotometrically using either propionylthiocholine or suxamethonium as substrate. All patients had a normal phenotype as indicated by normal dibucaine and fluoride numbers. However, the mean cholinesterase activity was lower than in the general population. There was a negative correlation between cholinesterase activity and...
