Housefly: Common zoonotic diseases transmitted and control

open access: yesJournal of Zoonotic Diseases, 2022
The Housefly (Musca domestica Linnaeus, 1758) lives in close proximity to humans, posing a variety of health risks. They are mechanical vectors capable of spreading an arraying of infections and annoy humans. More than 100 types of pathogens, including

Studies on Tyrosinase in Housefly [PDF]

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1962
Occurrence of protyrosinase in the prepupae of housefly, Musca vicina Maquart, and its activation were described. The prepupae possessing no appreciable tyrosinase activity could be separated from the other aged pupae by putting them into water. Homogenate prepared from the prepupae contains protyrosinase and has no activation system for the proenzyme.
