Quantitative and Qualitative Changes in the Skeletal Muscle Acetylcholinesterase Activity of Oreochromis niloticus Exposed to Methylparathion
Spectrophotometric assays and histochemical tests for acetylcholinesterase activity in the epaxial skeletal muscle of maturing Oreochromis niloticus after in-vivo exposure to 0.10 mg/L methylparathion showed significant inhibition of the enzyme by the pesticide. The assays manifested enzyme inhibiti...
