Description
This test measures the levels of acetylcholinesterase enzyme in the blood plasma. Acetylcholinesterase plays a crucial role in nerve function by breaking down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. The test is primarily used to diagnose organophosphate poisoning, which can occur due to exposure to certain pesticides or nerve agents. It’s also useful for monitoring certain neurological conditions and assessing potential toxin exposures. Repeated testing may be necessary to track enzyme levels over time in cases of suspected poisoning or ongoing exposure.
