Oral supplementation with potassium permanganate (30, 50 and 100 ㎍) to fifth instar larvae of the CSR₂×CSR₄ race of the silkworm, B. mori resulted in a significant increase in the glycogen content of the fat body and haemolymph trehalose. The protein content of the fat body is also significantly increased in all the potassium permanganate treated groups where as that of the haemolymph is significantly increased only in the 30 ㎍ fed group. The total lipids content of the fat body increased significantly in all the potassium permanganate treated groups.
