Abstract

In
this study, the effects of emamectin benzoate on the AChE activity in Oreochromis niloticus were investigated.
Fishes were exposed to 110 and 220 μg / L of emamectin benzoate for 96 hours
and 14 days to determine acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities in brain, liver
and kidney tissues.

The were
significant changes in asetilkoinesteraz
(AChE) activities in brain, liver and kidney tissues of O. niloticus exposed to emamectin
benzoate compared to controls. AChE activity in brain, liver and kidney tissues
of O. niloticus, was reduced in all periods
when compared to control values.

Biyopestisit Emamektin Benzoat’ın Oreochromis niloticus'un Dokularında Toksik Etkilerinin Asetilkolinesteraz Enzim Aktivitesiyle Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada emamectin benzoate’ın Oreochromis
niloticus’da AChE aktivitesi üzerine etkileri
araştırılmıştır. Balıklar 110 ve 220 µg/L emamectin benzoate etkisine 96 saat
ve 14 günlük sürelerle bırakılarak beyin, karaciğer ve böbrek dokularında
asetilkoinesteraz (AChE) aktiviteleri belirlenmiştir.

Emamectin benzoate maruz bırakılan O. niloticus'un beyin, karaciğer ve
böbrek dokularında asetilkoinesteraz (AChE) enzim aktivitesi kontrol
değerleriyle ile karşılaştırıldığında önemli değişiklikler belirlenmiştir Emamectin benzoate’a maruz bırakılan O.
niloticus'un beyin, karaciğer ve böbrek dokularında AChE aktivitesi kontrol
değerleriyle ile karşılaştırıldığında tüm sürelerde azaldığı belirlenmiştir.
