Acetylthiocholine chloride

Description:
Acetylthiocholine chloride is a quaternary ammonium compound commonly used as a substrate in biochemical assays, particularly in the study of cholinergic activity. It is a synthetic analog of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, featuring an acetyl group and a thioether linkage, which enhances its stability and reactivity in enzymatic reactions. The compound is typically presented as a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in water and various organic solvents. Its primary application lies in the measurement of acetylcholinesterase activity, as it is hydrolyzed by this enzyme to produce thiocholine, which can be detected colorimetrically. Acetylthiocholine chloride is also utilized in neuropharmacological research to investigate cholinergic signaling pathways. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper laboratory practices should be followed to ensure safe handling and disposal.
