The effect of liver esterases and temperature on remifentanil degradation in vitro
Remifentanil is a potent opioid metabolized by serum and tissue esterases; it is routinely administered to patients with liver failure as anaesthetic and analgo-sedative without variation in doses, even if prolonged clinical effects and respiratory ...

The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, mainly secretes 4‐oxo‐(E)‐2‐hexenal, (E)‐2‐decenal, dodecane and tridecane, a mixture representative of that released by many heteropterans. We demonstrated that H. halys can synthesise these secretory components de novo using dietary glucose.

Xenobiotic-hydrolysing esterases from crops and Arabidopses: characterisation of a S-formylglutathione hydrolase [PDF]
Esterases represent an ancient family of enzymes, found across all kingdoms, which have diverged and occupied a wide range of functional niches. Because of their biochemical diversity and electrophoretic variability, esterases are widely used as genetic ...

A novel assay reveals the blockade of esterases by piperonyl butoxide
BACKGROUND: Conventional in vitro assays sometimes fail to reveal esterase inhibition by piperonyl butoxide (PBO), although synergism studies suggest loss of esterase-mediated sequestration of insecticide does take place.

Regulation of the juvenile hormone titre in the Colorado potato beetle [PDF]
Three main topics were investigated in regulation of the titre of juvenile hormone in haemolymph of the Colorado potato beetle ( Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say): enzymic breakdown of the hormone; binding and protection of the hormone by carrier proteins ...
