ABSTRACT
The level of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in brain regions of O. mossambicus at different intervals showed the extent of phosalone toxicity. Significant inhibition of AChE at the end of 96 hr in the brain regions was observed. In contrast to AChE inhibition, the monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity showed significant increase in the regions of cerebral hemispheres, dien/mesencephalon, cerebellum and medulla oblongata. The increase of MAO activity in the brain regions under phosalone toxicity is considered to be one of the mechanisms to maintain the amines level in O. mossambicus.
