Activities of acid and alkaline phosphatase in Drosophila melanogaster after a long-term action of dichlorvos

Abstracts

EN

The effects of a long-term action of organophosphate compound - dichlorvos (DDVP)
on the acid and alkaline phosphatase activities in Drosophila melanogaster was studied. DDVP
is among the most widely used chemicals in agriculture in the world. Examined enzymes:
alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase were extracted from several generations of
DDVP-treated strains of Drosophila melanogaster. The increased activities of tested enzymes (alkaline and acid phosphatase) in fruit flay is positively correlated with the resistance to phosphorus insecticide - DDVP. It was found that the stimulating effects of DDVP on the
activities of both enzymes was time- and dose-dependent. The most visible changes in the
activities of tested enzymes (increased activities of acid and alkaline phosphatase) were found
in the XV and XX generations of Drosophila melanogaster.
