Figure 3. Tacrine (Sigma, A3773, a mixed-mode inhibitor of AChE) was serially diluted in DI water. Next 10 mL of the diluted Tacrine (x axis labeling represents mM final concentration of Tacrine) was added to a white opaque 96 well microplate along with 50 mL of component A (AChE enzyme). The samples were incubated for 5 minutes after which 50 mL of component B was added to all the wells. Data were collected using a luminometer. Data represent t = 2 minutes after the addition of component B.
Figure 4. Malathion, a common pesticide, was diluted in DMSO and then serially diluted in Di water. 10 mL of the diluted Malathion (x axis represents mM final concentration of Malathion) was added to a white opaque 96 well microplate followed by 50 mL of component A (AChE enzyme). The mixture was incubated for 15 minutes, after which 50 mL of component B was added to all the wells. Data were collected using a luminometer. Data shown represents t = 2.5 minutes after the addition of component B.
