Zusammenfassung

Die Carboxyesterase-Isozyme von 2Musca domestica-Stämmen wurden analysiert: Die Esteraseaktivität im organophosphat-resistenten Stamm ist bedeutend geringer als im suszeptiblen Stamm. Hingegen ist eines der 10 Isozyme mit Phosphataseaktivität im resistenten Stamm aktiver oder in höherer Konzentration vorhanden als im suszeptiblen Stamm, was die Annahme einer direkten Resistenz-Beziehung nahelegt.
