Acetylcholinesterase Assay Kit
Amplite™ Fluorimetric Acetylcholinesterase Assay Kit *Red Fluorescence*
Acetylcholinesterase, also known as AChE, is an enzyme that degrades (through its hydrolytic activity) the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, producing choline and an acetate group. It is mainly found at neuromuscular junctions and cholinergic synapses in the central nervous system, where its activity serves to terminate synaptic transmission. AChE has a very high catalytic activity ?each molecule of AChE degrades about 5000 molecules of acetylcholine per second. Acetylcholinesterase is also found on the red blood cell membranes, where it constitutes the Yt blood group antigen. Acetylcholinesterase exists in multiple molecular forms, which possess similar catalytic properties, but differ in their oligomeric assembly and mode of attachment to the cell surface. This Amplite?Fluorimetric Acetylcholinesterase Assay Kit provides one of the most sensitive methods for the detecting AChE activity. The kit uses Amplite Red?to quantify the choline produced from the hydrolysis of acetylcholine by AChE through choline oxidase-mediated enzyme coupling reactions. The fluorescence intensity of Amplite Red?is proportional to the formation of choline, thus the AChE activity.
Key Features
Application : Can be used to quantify acetylcholinesterase in solutions and in cell extracts.
Sensitive : Detect as low as 0.01mU of acetylcholinesterase in solution.
Continuous : Easily adapted to automation without a separation step.
Convenient : Formulated to have minimal hands-on time.
Non-Radioactive : No special requirements for waste treatment.
