    • Abstract:
      Highlights: [•] Metals are widespread in the aquatic compartment due to anthropogenic activities. [•] Metals can cause important anticholinesterasic effects in fish, already documented. [•] Metals Pb, Cu Zin and Cd did not significantly impair cholinesterases of G. holbrooki. [•] The role of ChE inhibition in the analysis of metal toxicity must be reconsidered.
