The combined effects of a pesticide and predation risk on sublethal endpoints in the midge Chironomus riparius were investigated using a combination of predator-release kairomones from common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and alarm substances from conspecifics together with the pesticide dimethoate.

The main mode of action of organophosphate insecticides is to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which causes neuromuscular paralysis leading ultimately to death. The collembolan Folsomia candida is an important and standard test species in ecotoxicology, where effects on avoidance behaviour are
Journal of hazardous materials, 237-238, 270-276 (2012-09-11)
This study analyzed the toxicity of organophosphorus pesticide, dimethoate on freshwater rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus, using swimming angular and linear speed alteration as the sub-lethal endpoints. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied in experimental design and data analysis to consider two
