Abstract
- The studies were carried out on male Wistar rats, where the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AchE-E.C. 3.1.1.7) was determined in red cells and bone marrow under the influence of organic and anorganic mercury compounds. A marked decline in the activity of the enzyme could be noted, along with a more pronounced effect of the organic mercury compound on AchE.
