The degradation of two oxime carbamate pesticides, oxamyl and methomyl, was investigated in anoxic solutions containing various metal ions and reducing agents. In reagent-free solutions, these carbamates degrade slowly via base-catalyzed elimination. Rates of carbamate degradation are accelerated by Fe(II)

The concept of B-esterase buffering against anti-cholinesterase (ChE) insecticide toxicity has been extensively researched in mammalian species. Presumably due to relatively low levels of anti-ChE detoxifying enzyme activity in birds, however, avian species are often more susceptible to the toxic
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity has been used to test the exposure of mollusk bivalves to pesticides and other pollutants. The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is a species with a worldwide distribution, and it has a high commercial value. The use of
