Abstract
Bee venom is a complex mixture of apamin, mast-cell degranulating peptide, phospholipase
A2 and melittin proteins, which are responsible for multiple actions in biochemical reaction of
different living organisms including insect. Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens (L.), larvae
have gained popularity both for their ability to decompose organic waste and serve as a source
of proteins for domestic. Use of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) is among the solutions being
explored to shift the value chain in organic waste management by producing valuable products.
Monitoring of possible impact of bee venom was assessed using mortality rate and biochemical
parameters such as protein carbonyls amount, and lipid peroxides concentration. The
potential use of protein carbonylation, and lipid peroxidation as a biomonitoring method of bee
venom potentiality was proposed. Concentrations of protein carbonyls of H. illucens gut samples
treated with 1mg/ml bee venom are significantly increased than control samples. The lipid
peroxidation level in gut of 5th instar insect treated with 1, 0.5, 0.25, & 0.125mg/ml were 65,
57, 46, & 34, respectively, compared to control. Bee venom specific antioxidant activity
caused comparable adverse effects in the organisms inhabiting concentration up to 1mg/ml.
