Résumé

Le rôle possible de l'histamine au cours de la croissance larvaire a été étudié. L'inhibition de l'oxydase des diamines au moyen de l'aminoguanidine, a fortement ralenti la croissance larvaire duTribolium confusum. Cette substance, cependant, ne s'est pas avérée toxique. D'autre part l'inhibition des décarboxylases par le semicarbazide ou le deoxypyridoxine ne modifie pas la croissance sans devenir toxique.
