| | Protocol for In-Vitro Butyryl Cholinesterase Activity |
| Description: | In-vitro butyryl cholinesterase inhibitory activity was performed in 96-well microplates, 0.5 mM test compound in methanol, was incubated with 20 μL butyrylcholinesterase, and 150 μL of sodium phosphate buffer of pH 8.0 for 15 minutes at 25° C. After that 10 μL of pre-prepared butyrylthiocholine chloride (0.5 mM) substrate was added in the dark for 15 minutes, followed by the addition DTNB (0.5 mM), to produce thionitrobenzoate (TNB), whose absorbance range in 412 nm. 5-Thio-2 nitrobenzoate (TNB) (yellow color) anion was produced when thiocholine binds with DTNB which was measured in the form of absorbance in each well. Each compound was evaluated in triplicate at 0.5 mM.Calculations of Inhibitory ActivityThe enzyme inhibitory activity was calculated using the following formula:Percent Inhibition=100−(O.D. of test/O.D. of control)×100Where test is the enzyme activity with sample, and control is the enzyme activity without sample, and O.D. is optical density.IC50 Value DeterminationThe IC50 values of the compounds were measured by monitoring the inhibitory effect of different concentrations ranging from 0.5-0.0125 μM for in-vitro butyryl cholinesterase activity. |
