Yin D, Jin H, Yu H, Chen L: [A comparative study on the sensitivity and specificity of cholinesterase and glutathione s-transferase in Gammarus pulex L.]. Ying Yong Sheng Tai Xue Bao. 2001 Aug;12(4):615-8. Studies on the influences of lindane, pirimiphos methyl, permethrin, zinc and dodecyl linear alkybenzene sulfonate (LAS) on the activity and toxicity of cholinesterase (ChE) and glutathione s-transferase (GST) in Gammarus pulex L. showed that only pirimiphos methyl caused a change in ChE activity in Gammarus, with a significant reduction in enzyme activity after 24 h and 48 h exposure. Both lindane and permethrin caused a change in GST activity in Gammarus, with a significant increase in enzyme activity after 48 h exposure. Lindane alos caused a significant increase in GST activity after 24 h exposure. Biomarkers ChE and GST were demonstrated a high degree of specificity and sensitivity in comparison to the lethality assay, but GST activity was less specific than ChE activity. |
