| Abstract: | The study showed that streptomycin sulfate was present in both tissue and blood of insects fed with the antibiotic-treated diet. Changes from larval to pupal to adult stages were accompanied by decreases in antibiotic concentration. During transformation from pupa to adult most of the antibiotic was discarded with the meconium. Eggs from adults reared from larvae fed on the antibiotic-treated diet were free of streptomycin. The antibiotic did not adversely affect insect development. |
