In the DTNB (dithiobis nitrobenzoic acid) method, substrate sensitivity depended on the animal species - propionylthiocholine iodide (PTC) was most sensitive in horse, dog and cat serum, butyrylthiocholine iodide (BTC) and PTC were more reactive to monkey serum, and acetylthiocholine iodide (ATC) was most effective in pig and cattle serum. Optimum concentrations of substrate were 5 X 103 M/l in horse, monkey, dog and cat, 3 X 10-3 M/l in swine, and 1 X 10-3 in cattle.
