Detection method: allelic discrimination

The CE IVD kit is used for determination of genotype of five polymorphisms: A (D70G, rs1799807), K (A539T, rs1803274), F1 (T243M, rs28933389), F2 (G390V, rs28933390), S1 (FS117, rs398124632) in human genomic DNA. The principle of detection is based on real-time PCR by fluorescently labelled probes (allelic discrimination).

Clinical implications of the CE IVD kit

Butyrylcholinesterase (BCHE) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of the myorelaxans suxamethonium (succinylcholine) and mivacurium. Decreased activity of this enzyme results in higher plasma drug concentrations and prolonged muscle paralysis associated with the need for pulmonary ventilation. The most common genetic predispositions leading to pseudocholinesterase deficiency include the BCHE variants A, K, F and S1.

In patients diagnosed with genetic alterations in the BCHE gene, it is recommended to use alternative agents to myorelaxants suxamthonium and mivacurium, which have available antidotes, eliminating the risk to the patient and the financial cost of subsequent artificial pulmonary ventilation.

    Background Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. For instance, probiotics can be used in the treatment and prevention of infections and chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. Due to their health attributes, probiotics generate considerable interest in the area of functional
