Acetylcholinesterase, as a potential biomarker of naphthalene toxicity in different tissues of freshwater teleost, Anabas testudineus
Naphthalene, a Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon is widely used as a fumigant and disinfectant despite its toxic effect and is ranked as the ninth most threatening compound. The present study was carried out to determine the in vivo effect of naphthalene at different concentrations on acetylcholinest...
