Enzyme activity was measured in 10-mm path length cuvette using incubation mixtures and change in optical density was recorded. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Sublethal 4 h LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 40% and 80% of these formulations in sunlight and laboratory conditions caused no significant change in AChE activity in the nervous tissue of host snail. It was noted that sublethal &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; 8 h exposure to 40% and 80% of 4 h LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of single and binary combination of CHL+FCU, CHL and FCU significantly altered the AChE and cytochrome oxidase activity in the cercaria larvae. Binary combinations of CHL+FCU in sunlight were more effective in inhibiting both the enzymes. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study reported that enzymes AChE and cytochrome oxidase were inhibited by chlorophyllin formulations and thus causing the larval death inside the snail body without affecting the snail itself which is an important bioindicator of aquatic ecosytem.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">768</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dinesh Kumar Singh&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Divya Jyoti Singh&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
