Effects of the organophosphorous pesticide, dimethoate, on cardiac and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the shore crab Carcinus maenas

The potential use of biochemical and physiological responses as biomarkers of organophosphate exposure and/or effect were assessed in the shore crab ( Carcinus maenas). Male crabs were assigned to one of four dimethoate treatments (0, 0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 mg l −1). Cardiac activity was measured non-invas...
