Abstract
A procedure is described for the routine sterile culture of large numbers (2000 per week) of blowflies, Lucilia cuprina, through all stages of the life cycle. Comparisons of the rate of development and basic chemical composition of the sterile and non-sterile insects revealed no significant differences.Keywords
