The biochemical method for determination of cetyltrimethyl ammonium or cetylpyridinium, both being nitrogenated cationic surfactants, has been devised by using horse blood serum butyrylcholinesterase as analytical reagent. The method streams from the fact that surfactants tested are inhibitors of butyrylcholinesterase hydrolysis of butyrylcholin, a cationic substrate, but in this case they activate enzymatic hydrolysis of 1-naphthylacetate, a neutral substrate. Presence two opposite effects enlarges reliability to identifications. Use the sensitive fluorimetric method to registrations of activation of hydrolysis a substrate 1-naphtylacetate vastly to reduce the threshold of determination of surfactants above.

Background: Aortoiliac disease poses a significant cardiovascular (CV) risk, especially in individuals with chronic kidney disease. This study aimed to assess the predictive role of chronic kidney disease in long-term major adverse CV events in patients submitted to aortoiliac revascularization due to severe aortoiliac atherosclerotic disease.

Methods: From 2013 to 2023, patients who underwent aortoiliac revascularization for TASC II type D lesions, including those with chronic kidney disease, were selected from a prospective cohort study.
