The use of insecticides with less toxic effect on non-target
organisms are widely used to combat agricultural pests. Arthropods have a
protective exoskeleton called cuticle. In our study, a texture analysis
technique was used to identify the effect of Boric acid (BA) during development
on the larval, pupal and adult exoskeleton of Drosophila melanogaster. The higher the dosage of the BA, the
stiffness increased so much unlike the pupa and larval period. This study has
shown that such as textural analysis approaches are an additional method for
analyzing biological samples, although not suitable for use alone.
