What is Acetylcholinesterase OPC poisoning Plasma?

This test measures the activity of acetylcholinesterase in your blood plasma. It is used to detect recent exposure to organophosphate compounds (OPCs), commonly found in pesticides, and assess potential poisoning. Plasma levels react more quickly to exposure than RBC levels.

Why is this test important?

Measuring plasma acetylcholinesterase is vital for rapid diagnosis of acute organophosphate poisoning, allowing for prompt medical treatment. It helps assess the severity of exposure and guides therapeutic decisions to prevent serious neurological complications.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
