The target enzyme in organophosphorous-induced delayed neuropathy (OPIDN) has been designated neuropathy target esterase or neurotoxic esterase (NTE). NTE activity can be measured in blood lymphocytes and platelets, which could be of use as biomonitors in man at risk for the development of OPIDN. Se
Bioelectrochemical analysis of neuropathy target esterase (NTE) and its inhibitors is based on the combination of the NTE-catalyzed hydrolysis of phenyl valerate and phenol detection by a tyrosinase carbon-paste electrode. The use of the tyrosinase electrode improves 10-fold the sensitivity of NTE d
