Effect of Growth regulators Match and Nomolt on average of total protein and enzyme AST in insect german cockroach Blattella germanica

Abstract

The effect of Match and Nomolt has been studied on total proteins and Aspartate transaminase enzyme (AST) of the different phases for German cockroaches B. germanica , (p<0.05) results showed significant effect of Match and Nomolt on different phases between the treating groups , as well as with control treatment . It was found that the effect of insect (IGR) growth regulator hormones on proteins of the early phases of the nymph was higher than the impact of the late phase and adult . The effect of Match and Nomolt on the effectivity of Aspartate transaminase (AST) in different phases was also significant (p<0.05) , and the average was 3.21 ± 0.70 . However , the average was 3.76 ± 0.40 in groups treated by Nomolt , and showed significant differences (p<0.05) between the enzyme activity in different stages of the insect , as well as between each of the enzyme treating groups and control treatment . The enzyme average activity was 4.71 ± 0.55 in control group.
