Cholinesterases are the enzymes helping the nervous system to function properly. Cholinesterase tests are prescribed the individuals, who undergone pesticide exposure such as organophosphate or carbamate types. Exposure of these pesticides occurs through the skin by ingestion and inhalation. In addition cholinesterase tests are also performed on the patients with liver disease particularly those undergoing liver transplantation.
There are two separate types of cholinesterases available in the body acetyl-cholinesterase, found in blood and pseudo-cholinesterase (butyrylcholinesterase), found in the serum. To measure the activities of these two enzymes cholinesterase tests have been performed.
Decrease in cholinesterase activity indicating increase absorption of organophosphate compounds, which significantly damage the nervous system. Lowered cholinesterase levels can be caused by malnutrition and chronic liver disease.
Total activity cholinesterase enzymes can also be lowered in a number of other conditions, including renal disease, pregnancy, shock, and some types of cancers. However, the cholinesterase tests are very necessary to patients who are over exposed to insecticides.
There are several products are available for rapid mobile checking to measure blood cholinesterase level in the field and in the laboratory. The cholinesterase test kits are portable, user friendly, safe and convenient developed for use in field and remote areas.
Moreover, it is also necessary to create awareness among the individuals those are exposure to pesticide for the cholinesterase testing by the government as well as private organizations which will promote the growth of the cholinesterase testing market.
Increase adoption of pesticides in agriculture expected to hamper the nervous system, which will drive the cholinesterase testing market. Farmers over exposed to organophosphate chemicals found in pesticides and insecticides undergone severe damage of their nervous system expected to drive the cholinesterase testing market.
Decrease in cholinesterase levels due to pregnancy, shock, renal diseases and some types of chronic liver diseases and malnutrition also dives the cholinesterase testing market. In addition attractive government support and initiatives are other drivers of the growth of the cholinesterase testing market.
However, the results of cholinesterase testing are found unavailable in time to suggest treatment expected to restrain the growth of the cholinesterase testing market.
