Ferhan and Aydın, Hasan}, keywords={Drosophila melanogaster,Nutrition,Chitin}, abstract={<span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">Chitin
can be obtained from an insect of the cuticle, trachea and peritrophic matrix
of the insect during molting. For this reason, biotechnologically important
chitin can be easily obtained from <i>Drosophila </i>
and can be used in related sectors. </span> <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;"> The aim of this study was to investigate the
antioxidant capacity (TAS) of chitin obtained from <i>Drosophila melanogaster </i> Meigen (Diptera: Drosophilidae) against
total oxidation in 35-day old flies. </span> <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;"> Thus, the use of chitin obtained from this insect in the basic science
fields such as medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine has been determined in
the aging process. Furthermore, in this study, the environmental and ecological
impact of the release of products from natural biomolecules into the
environment has been discussed. </span>}, number={4}, publisher={Şükrü DURSUN}
