Characterizations of Cholinesterases in Golden Apple Snail (Pomacea canaliculata)

Journal of Molecular Neuroscience, 2013
Cholinesterases (ChEs) have been identified in vertebrates and invertebrates. Inhibition of ChE activity in invertebrates, such as bivalve molluscs, has been used to evaluate the exposure of organophosphates, carbamate pesticides, and heavy metals in the marine system.

Abstract1. Pomacea paludosa exhibits a variety of defenses against predation, including aposematic eggs and dropoff-burial responses to odors of turtles, odors of crushed conspecific snails, and mechanical disturbance. 2. The conspicuous pinkish-white eggs are laid out of the water and hatch after several weeks incubation.
