Fig. 4
Redox balance-related enzyme activities in honey bee brain samples. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (a), superoxide dismutase (b) and xanthine oxidase (c) activities are shown. Data are presented as box plots, where whiskers represent minimum and maximum range values, boxes indivate upper and lower quartiles, and lines denote medians. “Control” refers to the control group with no treatment; “Delta1”, “Delta2”, and “Delta3” refer to 1.975, 3.95, and 7.9 ng/animal/day deltamethrin exposures, respectively. Significant differences compared with the control are marked by asterisks. n = 10/treatment. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
