An Automated Screen for Cholinesterase in Postmortem Blood

Pages 297-302 | Published online: 22 Nov 2013
 

ABSTRACT

A number of poisons produce their toxic effects by inhibition of the enzyme cholinesterase. A simple automated screening procedure for cholinesterase in preserved specimens of postmortem whole blood is presented. A tentative reference interval for cholinesterase in such specimens is proposed.

RÉSUMÉ

L'effet toxique d'un certain nombre de poisons est dû au fait qu'ils sont des inhibiteurs de l'enzyme cholinesterase. Cet article décrit une procédure de criblage simple et automatisée pour cet enzyme à partir d'échantillons de sang postmortem. Un écart de valeurs deréférence pour l'enzyme cholinesterase est proposé de façon provisoire.
