Acetylcholine does not change the activity of Na, K-ATPase isolated from pig kidney. The enzyme is shown to have insignificant acetylcholinesterase activity. It is suggested that Na, K-ATPase sensitivity to acetylcholine disappears in the course of enzyme purification and that acetylcholinesterase activity is extrinsic.

Background: Carbosulfan (CBS) is a widely used carbamate pesticide in agricultural production, its easy decomposition into hypertoxic carbofuran poses serious threats to human health and food safety. Therefore, sensitive and accurate detection of CBS is of significant importance. Conventional chromatography-based techniques require expensive instruments and complicated sample pretreatment, limiting their application for fast detection.

Background: Many of the ligand affinity analyses are presented in water environment, and the hydrophilic solution such as methanol is used for dissociating the bound compounds. The obtained dissociation solution needs to be concentrated for improving the sensitivity of the assay. However, it is not good for the analysis of hydrophobic and volatile compounds such as coumarins.

In this study, the structure of a new boron compound obtained using 3-methoxy catechol and 4-methoxy phenyl boronic acid was characterized by H, C NMR, LC-MS-IT-TOF, UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopy. The antioxidant activities of the newly synthesized compound were evaluated by DPPH free radical scavenging, ABTS quation radical scavenging and CUPRAC copper reducing capacity methods. Anticholinesterase activities were determined by acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase enzyme inhibitor assays.
