In order to complete previous studies conducted on Blattella germanica, three insecticides from different groups were evaluated: boric acid, an inorganic compound, benfuracarb, a carbamate, and halofenozide, a non-steroidal ecdysone agonist. Boric acid (8.20%, LD50) and benfuracarb (2%, LD50) were incorporated into the diet and orally administrated to newly emerged adults of both sexes, while halofenozide (0.33%, LD50) was applied topically. Hydrocarbons extracts was made on bidistilled pentane from control and treated series sampled 6 days following treatment. Extracts was analyzed by gas chromatography. Data showed that cuticular profiles of control and treated series were qualitatively similar with thirteen major compounds; however, significant quantitative differences were noted. Boric acid seemed to feminize the cuticular profile in males with a significant reduction of the two first cuticular compounds detected. Halofenozide and benfuracarb reduced cuticular compounds in both sexes. |
