In this study, a commercially available kit in which propionylthiocholine is used as a substrate and a dibucaine solution to determine the variants of the enzyme were utilized. Plasma cholinesterase activity of 151 patients who underwent different operations was measured during a period of six months. The mean±SD of the enzyme activity in 150 patients was 4.39±1.17 kU/L .. Seventeen patie...
