1. The effects of thiono- and thiolisomers of both demeton and methyldemeton on the activity of the nerve cord of the American cockroach and on the cholinesterase activity have been studied.<br>2. Both isomers of methyldemeton caused an increase in spontaneous activity and a prolongation of synaptic after-discharge, which were followed by a burst of discharges and a final synaptic block. These effects were reversible on washing with normal Ringer's solution when a weak concentration was used.<br>3. Both isomers of demeton exerted almost the same effect as that of methyldemeton, but differed in that the prolongation of synaptic after-discharge was preceded by a brief period of depression of postsynaptic response.<br>4. Four isomers all inhibited cholinesterase of the nerve cord in vitro, concentration for 50 per cent inhibition being of the order of 10-6M.<br>5. The cholinesterase activity of nerve was half inactivated at the moment when spontaneous activity was increased and synaptic after-discharge was prolonged after treatment with demeton or methyldemeton.<br>6. It is concluded that the inhibition of cholinesterase is mainly responsible for the changes in nervous activity. Additional mechanisms are suggested for the action of demeton.
