Larval therapy, the therapeutic use of blowfly larvae to treat chronic wounds, is primarily used in debridement. There are, however, gaps in current knowledge of the optimal clinical application of the therapy and mechanisms of action in the debridement process. Using an artificial assay, two

Non banded sex chromosome elements have been identified in polytene trichogen cells of Lucilia cuprina using Y-autosome translocations, C-banding and Quinacrine fluorescence. The X chromosome is an irregular granular structure while the much smaller Y chromosome has both a dense darkly stained and a

The relative number of gap junctions within the ring of axon terminals of identified adult photoreceptors has been counted, in the lamina cartridges of Lucilia cuprina. Terminals are similar in size, but some pairs of terminals make up to four times as many junctions with each other as do other

Regulation of forensic practice in many countries prevents the pathologist performing an immediate autopsy. During the period prior to autopsy, the corpse and the insects possibly associated with it are stored in a mortuary with temperatures ∼4°C. When a corpse is found in a late stage of decay, fly
