Protein and lipid concentration in the haemolymph of Danais chrysippus. Linn.
Proteins and lipids in the haemolymph in both the sexes of the Danais chrysippus has been observed during the first gonotropic cycle. The concentration fluctuations in these haemolymph metabolites are correlated with the physiological state of the insect. The total protein and lipid concentration in the haemolymph of unmated females have been found to be low than the concentration found for the normal females although it followed the same type of oscillations in the concentration as have been observed for normal females.
