The use of entomological evidence in the estimation of the post mortem interval (PMI) often depends on the size and developmental stage of blowfly larvae collected from a corpse. Therefore, factors which can have an effect on the larval size and growth rate can have implications for reliable PMI determinations.

The Removal of Sulphate by the Excretory Apparatus of the Blowfly Calliphora Vomitoria
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1975ABSTRACT The excretion of sulphate by the isolated Malpighian tubules of Calliphora vomitoria has been investigated. Contrary to expectation, it was found that the isolated tubules are freely permeable to sulphate. The rate of sulphate secretion is comparable to the rates of secretion of both phosphate and chloride.

Gastrin/cholecystokinin-like material in the brains of the blowfly, Calliphora vomitoria, was extracted with boiling water and purified by immunoaffinity adsorption to a C-terminal-specific gastrin antiserum. The material eluted in two peaks after separation by gel filtration on Sephadex G-50.

The nonapeptide, Phe-Asp-Asp-Tyr(SO3)-Gly-His-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 was isolated from heads of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria. Designated callisulfakinin I, the peptide is identical to the earlier known drosulfakinin I of Drosophila melanogaster and to neosulfakinin I of Neobellieria bullata. It belongs to the sulfakinin family, all known members of which (

The cuticular and internal lipid composition in Calliphora vomitoria larvae, pupae, and male and female adults was studied. The free fatty acid (FA) compositions of the lipids were chemically characterized using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-electron impact mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Muscle growth and protein synthesis in the puparia of Calliphora vomitoria
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1976Abstract The effects of cycloheximide on the development of the dorsal longitudinal flight muscle of 3- to 5-day-old puparia of Calliphora vomitoria have been investigated. One μg of cycloheximide injected into the puparia reduced the incorporation of 14 C phenylalanine and lysine into protein to 5 and 8 per cent of their normal levels.

Effects of protein synthesis inhibitors on muscle growth in the puparium of Calliphora vomitoria
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1978Methods are described for measuring the length and the myofibril diameter of the sixth dorsal longitudinal flight muscle of 7-, 8- and 9-day old puparia of C. vomitoria. The muscle fibres are divided up into nuclear deliminated areas and the number of myofibrils in one of these areas is found to be constant.

Some effects of low oxygen partial pressures on the development of Calliphora vomitoria
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1974Abstract The influence of wet conditions and low pO2 on the survival and development of non-feeding final instar larvae and puparia of Calliphora vomitoria has been investigated. The larvae delay the formation of the puparium in wet conditions in air and in dry or wet conditions in 10 and 5% oxygen.

The external morphology of the terminal region of the fifth tarsal segment of the blowfly, Calliphora vomitoria (L.) has been studied using light and scanning electron microscopy (S.E.M.). The pulvilli, with their numerous tenent hairs of spatulate form projecting from the ventral surface, are responsible for adhesion to smooth surfaces.

The action of the excretory apparatus of Calliphora vomitoria in handling injected sugar solution
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1976ABSTRACT Recent evidence suggests that the isolated Malpighian tubules of Calliphora possess mechanisms which restrict the loss of glucose and trehalose from the insect. This report establishes that the intact, diuresing fly does not excrete glucose or trehalose when solutions of these sugars are injected.
