ShareChilling injury in the housefly: evidence for the role of oxidative stress between pupariation and emergence.
Author(s) : JAS R. R., LEOPOLD R. A.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The hypothesis that oxidative stress plays a role in chilling injury in the housefly was investigated by determining the effect of chilling on two important components of the insect's antioxidant defense system: the superoxide anion scavenging enzyme, superoxide dismutase, and the tripeptide glutathione, which is significant in maintaining the cellular redox status of the cell.
