micropeltes in comparison of AChE from
Electrophorus electricus will be then evaluated.
Among the species of fish that have been employed in this aspect, we find Pacific electric ray (Torpedo californica), eel (
Electrophorus electricus), goldfish (Carassius auratus), Nile tilapia (O.
guttata, e Aetobatus narinari, e da especie de raia de agua doce Potamotrygon motoro (DELLIAS et al., 2004); DS; CS e HS do tecido muscular do bacalhau Gadus morhua e peixe lobo Anarhichas minor (TINGHO et al., 2005), DS da pele da enguia eletrica
Electrophorus electricus, nativa do rio Amazonas (SOUZA et al., 2007a) e a identificacao preliminar da presenca preponderante de HS presente na pele da carpa comum, Cyprinus carpio (RODRIGUES et al., 2009b), e de DS na pela da tilapia do Nilo, Oreochromis niloticus, por Rodrigues et al.

Several other electric fish (e.g.,
Electrophorus, Malapterusus, and Raja) have comparable organs but, for biochemical studies, these have received little attention.
Seror concluded that in large groups of persons, Phalen's test is effective; however, in individual cases, Phalen's test results must always be accompanied by
electrophorus test results.
They include several types of pirana and a creature that particularly impressed Humboldt, the electric eel (
electrophorus electricus).
The inhibitory effect of EOL was expected since the main compound present in this chemotype is linalool (Vale et al., 1999, 2002), which has been shown to inhibit AChE in insects (Blenau et al., 2012) and in the electric eel,
Electrophorus electricus (Lopez et al., 2015).
That takeover is how electric eels (
Electrophorus electricus) immobilize their prey, Kenneth Catania of Vanderbilt University in Nashville reports in the Dec.
AChE from
Electrophorus electricus, BChE from equine serum and galantamine hydrobromide were purchased from Sigma (St.
AChE (EC 3.1.1.7) was purified in our laboratory from electric eel (
Electrophorus electricus) as reported elsewhere (18).
