Inthis regard, 5,5′‐dithio‐bis(2‐nitro‐benzoic acid) compound (DTNB) wasused to estimate BChE/AChE activity. In summary, 100 μL Tris buffersolution (HCl, 1.0M, pH 8.0, Tris) and variety of concentrations of thesample solution (50‐200 mL) were added in deionized water and also20 μL of BChE/AChE enzymes solutions added. The mixture was thenincubated for 10 minutes at 20°C. Finally, 50 μL of DTNB (0.5 mM and25 mL) BChI/AChI were added to the incubator mixture. The reactionwas also started by adding 50 μL BChI/AChI. The activity of theseenzymes was evaluated using spectrophotometric spectra with awavelength of 412 nm.arrow_forward
