Acetylcholine Assay Kit

Acetylcholine is a polyatomic neurotransmitter that is produced in acetyl cholinergic neurons. Acetylcholine Assay Kit provides an ultra sensitive method for detecting acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) activity in a fluorescence micro plate reader. Acetylcholine Assay Kit is a quantitative colorimetric acetylcholine determination. It is one of many neurotransmitters within the autonomic nervous system and the only neurotransmitter in the motor function of the somatic nervous system.


 Acetylcholine works within the peripheral and central nervous systems within many organisms, including humans. It is manufactured via choline acetyltransferase from acetyl-CoA and choline.

Bioassaysys’s   Acetylcholine Assay Kit is based on the enzyme driven reaction that will detect acetylcholine via acetyl cholinesterase enzyme and choline oxidase. First, acetyl cholinesterase hydrolyzes acetylcholine into choline and acetic acid. Choline is then oxidized by choline oxidase to produce hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is then detected with a highly specific colorimetric probe
