Description larvae of Corcyra cephalonica Staint and Tribotium castuneum Herbst were
allowed to grow in media containing radioactive tricalcium phosphate compounds-
Wa or saP prepared in the laboratory. Haemolymph and muscle-cuticle complex
showed high accumulation of Wa and saP. The radioactivity retained by the tissues
increased with time and was highest between 24 and 72 hr.
Considerable radioactivity was still detected even 6 days after shifting the Corcyra
larvae to a non-radioactive medium. The results indicate that the inhibitory effects
reported earlier are a result of uptake of the compound and not due to inanition.
