Application and Effect
Butyrylcholine iodide is a synthetic compound that is commonly used in biochemical and neurobiological research as a substrate for studying the activity of cholinesterase enzymes. It is similar to acetylcholine but has a larger acyl group (butyryl) instead of the acetyl group. The primary application of butyrylcholine iodide is in enzymatic assays to measure the activity of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzymes. BChE is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of butyrylcholine. By measuring the rate of hydrolysis, researchers can determine the activity of BChE, which is important for understanding cholinergic signaling and metabolism. In addition to enzymatic assays, butyrylcholine iodide can also be used in studies related to drug development, neuropharmacology, and toxicology. It may be used to evaluate the effects of compounds on BChE activity in drug screening or toxicity studies.Product Packing:
