In a previous study, we showed that purified commercial esterase activity can be detected in a chemiluminescent assay based on the hydrolysis of 2-methyl-1-propenylbenzoate (MPB) to 2-methyl-1-propenol, which is subsequently ...

A series of thirty-three alkynyl and β-ketophosphonates were evaluated for their in vitro acetyl- and butyryl-cholinesterase (AChE and BChE) inhibitory activities using Ellman´s spectrophotometric method. None of the ...

Many chiral pesticides are introduced into the environment as racemates, although their pesticidal activity is usually the result of preferential reactivity of only one enantiomer, while the other enantiomer may have toxic ...
