TL;DR: This study shows that the measurement of brain and muscle AChE activity in Cyprinus carpio is a useful biomarker of carbamates exposure and/or effects, but has no application with pyrethroids.

Abstract: This work investigated the effect from exposure to insecticides carbofuran and deltamethrin on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the brain and muscle of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Both pesticides were evaluated through two separate experiments, and carp were exposed in a semi-static system to three different concentrations of carbofuran (10, 50, and 100 μg/L) and deltamethrin (0.08, 0.4, and 0.8 μg/L) during a month with sampling times at 0, 4, 15, and 30 days (n = 7 from each aquarium). AChE activity was significantly inhibited in both organs of carps exposed to carbofuran at all sampling times depending on dose and time, reaching inhibition values of 73.5 and 67.1%, in brain and muscle tissues respectively, after 30 days with the highest concentration. On the contrary, AChE activity was not significantly affected after deltamethrin exposure at all concentrations and times of the assay. This study shows that the measurement of brain and muscle AChE activity in Cyprinus carpio is a useful biomarker of carbamates exposure and/or effects, but has no application with pyrethroids. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

High-throughput characterization of chemical-associated embryonic behavioral changes predicts teratogenic outcomes.
TL;DR: This high-throughput screening system using a vertebrate organism can provide rapid characterization of chemical-elicited behavioral responses at an early developmental stage that are predictive of observable adverse effects later in life.
Multiple biomarkers based appraisal of deltamethrin induced toxicity in silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix)
TL;DR: DLM was concluded to be highly toxic to fish and the extensive use of DLM should be prohibited or allowed under strict environmental laws; otherwise, it might lead to the extermination of the susceptible wildlife, such as commercially very valuable but nearly threatened silver carp.

Acute toxication of deltamethrin results in activation of iNOS, 8-OHdG and up-regulation of caspase 3, iNOS gene expression in common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)
TL;DR: The results indicated that long-term deltamethrin exposure could lead to inflammation, oxidative stress, DNA damage, and apoptosis on the different organs in common carp.

Examining pyrethroids, carbamates and neonicotenoids in fish, water and sediments from the Indus River for potential health risks.
TL;DR: A preliminary risk assessment indicated that the calculated daily intake of detected pesticides by people consuming fish from the Indus River was low and did not present an immediate risk to the fish-consuming people.
Highly Selective Electrochemical Sensor Based on Gadolinium Sulfide Rod-Embedded RGO for the Sensing of Carbofuran.
TL;DR: In this paper, an electrochemical sensor using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with gadolinium sulfide (Gd2S3) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composite for the detection of carbofuran (CF) is presented.
