Butyrylcholinesterase

Butyrylcholinesterase is a non-specific cholinesterase that has the function of hydrolysing many different choline esters within the body. It is found primarily in the liver. Within clinical diagnostics it is measured in blood as a means of monitoring the use of organophosphate bio control agents. A deficiency of BCHE results in delayed metabolism of only a few compounds of clinical significance, including succinylcholine, mivacurium, procaine, and cocaine.
