Anticholinesterase activity was measured using a bioautographic assay adapted (Silveira et al., 2011) from Yang et al. (2009) (link). Acetylcholinesterase (AChE -EC 3.1.1.7, Sigma-Aldrich) was dissolved in 0.05 M Tris-hydrochloric acid buffer at pH 7.8 with 1 mg/ml bovine serum albumin (BSA, 98%, Sigma-Aldrich). The stock solution was kept at 4 °C. LECF and BECF extracts were weighed, and made up into two stock solutions of 20 mg/ml with methanol. Then different volumes of LECF and BECF stock solutions (equivalent to 600, 400, 200, 150, 100, 50 and 25 μg dry mass) were loaded on two TLC F 254 plates (10 × 10 cm, 0.2 mm thickness; Merck) and eluted in dichloromethane: methanol (9:1 v/v) for separation of compounds. The dried TLC plates were sprayed with AChE enzyme solution (1U/ml) and incubated at 37 °C for 20 minutes. For detection of the enzymes inhibitors, solutions of 1-naphthyl acetate (150 mg; Sigma-Aldrich) in ethanol 40% solution (100 ml) and Fast Blue B salt (50 mg; 95%, Sigma-Aldrich) in MilliQ  water (100 ml) were prepared immediately before use. After incubation of TLC plates, the 1-naphthyl acetate and Fast Blue B salt solutions were sprayed on the plates to give a purple coloration after 1-2 minutes. The inhibition of AChE was observed from the white spots on the purple colored dye background of the TLC plates.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
