Effect of AFPE on cholinesterase activity. (A) AChE (filled circle) or BuChE (empty circle) was assayed in the absence or presence of the indicated amounts of AFPE, as reported in the Methods section. NB. 100 µM AFPE in the reaction mixture corresponded to 23 mg of apple flesh/mL. (B) Data were analyzed according to first order behavior, and the IC₅₀ was calculated from the slope of the linear regression (r², 0.924 for AChE and 0.910 for BuChE).
