It is now known that the untreated discharge of pharmaceuticals into the environment can impact human health and development and lead to increased drug resistance in biota. Here, we present the first direct interface-specific studies that address the mobility of

Soil invertebrates in arable land are potentially exposed to veterinary medicines excreted by husbandry. The toxicity of three widely used pharmaceuticals was therefore investigated with the use of common soil invertebrates exposed in the laboratory in single- or two-species test

The secretion of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by female and male Heligmosomoides polygyrus was studied in different in vitro culture media. AChE secretion was increased in the presence of fetal calf serum or bovine serum albumin (BSA). In the absence of crowding
Two homomer-forming nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunits with 47% identity in their amino acid sequences were employed to compare the actions of cholinergic anthelmintics and ivermectin on expressed vertebrate and nematode nicotinic receptors of known molecular composition. Voltage-clamp electrophysiology was used
Acid phosphatase (AP) activity was detected in 24 h culture media from adult Heligmosomoides polygyrus. Female and male excretion/secretion products showed similar specific activity. For both, the AP had a pH optimum of 4.0 and was inhibited by sodium fluoride
