The glycogen, protein and lipid levels were studied in body tissues of B. bengalensis under pesticidal application of lethal and sublethal doses of synthetic pyrethroidal pesticide-sumicidin. All these constituents decreased significantly suggesting a rapid breakdown of glycogen, protein and lipid in energy metabolism under toxic stress.
