The proteases of human leukocytes were cytochemically studied by use of new alpha-naphthyl esters, tosyl-L-lysine-alpha-naphthyl ester (TLNE) and acetyl-L-tyrosine-alpha-naphthyl ester (ATNE). The hydrolytic activities were strong only in neutrophils, with both substrates. They were inhibited completely by DFP and chymostatin

A cross-sectional review of routine employee health status examinations has identified an undercounting of circulating monocytes associated with an inhibition of a surface monocyte esterase, alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase. It is postulated that this inhibition is associated with an organophosphate used
