Histochemical Staining of Acetylcholinesterase in Carnolian Honeybee (Apis mellifera carnica) Brain after Chronic Exposure to Organophosphate Diazinon

Organophosphate insecticides are known to inhibit the activity of enzyme acetylcholinesterase. They affect olfactory learning and memory formation in honeybees. These insecticides cause mushroom body inactivation in honeybees, but their influence on other brain regions involved in olfactory percepti...
