The correct choice is (b) Insecticide poisoning

Explanation: Serum choline esterase is an indication of possible insecticide poisoning. Hence it is not a clinical significance of aldolase. Clinical significance of aldolase are as follows:

• Progressive muscular dystrophy is detected when high aldolase is seen in the serum.

• Viral hepatitis at early stage can diagnosed by slight increase in aldose levels.

• Prostate cancer at advanced stages may be diagnosed by slight increase in aldose levels.
