Description

General description

Choline chloride is the synthetic form of vitamin B4, choline and is a common poultry feed.

Choline acetyltransferase substrate

Application

Choline chloride has been used:

as a substrate for measuring choline oxidase enzyme activity using fluorescence measurements
as a component of non-physiological buffers for testing calcium based inhibition of cytochrome c oxidaseP
as a component of perfusate solution for studying arterial pressure in jejunum samples

Biochem/physiol Actions

Choline chloride treatment of radish seeds modulates phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine levels. It elicits hepatoprotective effects and modulates methyl carbon based metabolic pathways.
