Effect of Indoxacarb on some biological and biochemical aspects of Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.) larvae

The disturbance in the carbohydrate level was expressed by impairment in the activity of carbohydrate enzymes in treated 2nd and 4th instar larvae. In both treated instar larvae there was a significant increase in the enzyme activity of alpha and beta esterase as well as in glutathione S-transferase.
