Development modeling of Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae)
The relationship between insect development and temperature has been well established and has a wide range of uses, including the use of blow flies for postmortem (PMI) interval estimations in death investigations. To use insects in estimating PMI, we must be able to determine the insect age at the time of discovery and backtrack to time of oviposition. Unfortunately, existing development model...
متن کامل[Wound myiasis caused by Lucilia sericata].
Report of a case of miyasis in Lucilia sericata infected wounds recently observed in Paris in a 67-year-old vagrant. The authors describe the role played by Lucilia sericata in therapy before the appearance of sulfanilamides and antibiotics.
متن کاملExpression of a New Recombinant Collagenase Protein of Lucilia Sericata in SF9 Insect Cell as a Potential for Wound Healing
Background: Today, the use of maggot therapy has become widespread due to the increase in chronic ulcers in the world. The recombinant production of secreted enzymes from these larvae is a novel non-invasive method for the treatment of chronic ulcers. Lucilia sericata (L. sericata) collagenase (MMP-1) has been expressed in insect cells. Collagenase is an enzyme that is widely used in clinical t...
متن کاملThe human aural myiasis caused by Lucilia sericata.
Myiasis is a rare, worldwide, human disease with seasonal variation, caused by developing larvae of a variety of fly species. It can be dangerous when infestations penetrate into the brain. In the available literature, we have found only a few papers concerning ear myiasis caused by Lucilia sericata. Here, we report 2 cases of aural myiasis. Early intervention (surgical removal, occlusion) in t...
متن کاملMultiple actions of Lucilia sericata larvae in hardtoheal wounds
In Europe 15,000 patients receive larval therapy for wound treatment annually. Over the past few years, clinical studies have demonstrated the success of larvae of Lucilia sericata as debridement agents. This is based on a combination of physical andbiochemical actions. Laboratory investigations have advanced our understanding of the biochemical mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of l...
