Cholinesterase activity in the caddisfly Sericostoma vittatum: biochemical enzyme characterization and in vitro effects of insecticides and psychiatric drugs

Sericostoma vittatum is a caddisfly species, endemic to the Iberian Peninsula, proposed as a biomonitor species for lotic ecosystems. Since inhibition of cholinesterases[U+05F3] (ChE) activity has been used to evaluate the exposure of macroinvertebrates to organophosphates and carbamate pesticides,...
