Abstract
⺠Folsomia candida (Collembola) cholinesterases are typical acetylcholinesterases (AChE). ⺠Dimethoate affected the AChE activity in a positive dose-related response (in vivo and in vitro). ⺠Non avoidance of dimethoate was observed; the effect was in fact a non-escape ability due to immobilisation of organisms. ⺠Non escape effect was positively correlated with AChE activity decrease.
