Resumen:
The effect of the organophosphate fenitrothion(FS) on the non-target freshwater prawn Palaemonetesargentinus was studied. Initially, the 96-h lethal concentration(LC50) of FS was determined in adult prawns.Inhibition of cholinesterase (ChE) in the muscle andhemolymph was assessed. Then, in the hepatopancreas,the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase(CAT), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) were analyzed.Lipid peroxidation (LPO) was also determined inthe hepatopancreas. The 96-h LC50 value was 1.12 μg/L.Hemolymph ChE activity showed a significant decreasein exposed prawns to FS compared to the control group,while no significant differences in the muscle were observedbetween groups (p
