Saccharin is extracted from the acidified liquid food with chloroform. This solvent is evaporated ; the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and applied on a silica gel GF,,, plate. After chromatographic separation, the saccharin band is scraped off and extracted with 1 % sodium carbonate solution.

✦ Synopsis
A rapid thin-layer chromatographic method on Gelman I.T.L.C. type SA plates for the determination of choline acetylase activity has been developed. The mobile phase consists of sodium tetraphenylboron dissolved in acetonitrile. The Rt values for acetyl coenzyme A and acetate are about 0.1, while that for acetylcholine is about 0.9. The method compares favorably with other radiometric methods as far as recovery, separation, and simplicity are concerned. MATERIALS AND METHODS Chemicals. [ lJ4C]Acetylcholine chloride (sp act 11.8 mCi/mmol), [1-14C]acetate (sp act 58 mCi/mmol), and [1-14C]acetyl coenzyme

We have developed an electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) technique that can be applied to rapidly determine the number of intact active sites in proteins. The methodology relies on inhibiting the protein with an active-site irreversible inhibitor and then using ESI-MS to determine the
