| الوصف: | Five days of starvation led to a significant increase in the amylase activity of sixth instar larvae of Tribolium castaneum. Acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, and lactate dehydrogenase activities and glucose, glycogen, free amino acids, and RNA contents showed a significant decrease. Other parameters such as glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase, glutamate pyruvate transaminase, total protein, soluble protein, lipids, cholesterol, and DNA content did not show any significant deviation. On prolongation of starvation for 10 days all the biochemical parameters tested were significantly reduced, except for the amylase activity and cholesterol content, which showed highly elevated values. The total and soluble protein content remained unaltered. Refeeding of starved larvae tended to normalize some of the parameters such as glucose, lipids, glycogen, and DNA. On the other hand, lactate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase, glutamate pyruvate transaminase, free amino acids, and RNA decreased drastically, whereas the soluble protein and cholesterol contents increased considerably in refed larvae. |
