RESUMO
Studies have been made on the activity of erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase in 18 species of wild and laboratory rodents. Significant differences in the enzymic activity unrelated to taxonomic position of rodents were revealed. Negative correlation was found between the enzymic activity and body mass in rodents. The relationship between these parameters for wild rodents is approximated by an allometric equation Y = 1.1 . X-0.73, for laboratory species--Y = 1.5 . X-0.41. It is suggested that the revealed relationship indicates the existence of a connection between the activity of erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase and the intensity of metabolism in small rodents.
