18026775 Jin-Clark Y, Anderson TD, Zhu KY: Effect of alachlor and metolachlor on toxicity of chlorpyrifos and major detoxification enzymes in the aquatic midge, Chironomus tentans (Diptera: Chironomidae). Arch Environ Contam Toxicol. 2008 May;54(4):645-52. Epub 2007 Nov 17.

Furthermore, alachlor and metolachlor at 1,000 microg/L reduced acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity by 34.3% and 27.6%, respectively, in the treated midges.

In this study, several persistent organic pollutants -- 23 polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, 11 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), six dichlorodiphenyltricholroethane (DDT) relatives, hexachlorobenzene (HCB), chlorpyrifos and its oxidized metabolite -- and some herbicides (lindane and the isomers alpha, beta, delta; terbutilazine; alachlor; metolachlor) were measured in the soft tissues of the freshwater mollusc Zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) from 25 sampling sites in the Italian portions of the sub-alpine great lakes along with the measure of ethoxyresorufin dealkylation (EROD) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity.

The herbicide metolachlor was found at all nine sites in the five canals sampled at concentrations up to 119 ng/L.
