Biochemical assays of (a) Malondialdehyde (MDA), (b) Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), (c) Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), (d) Glutathione peroxidase (GPx), (e) Glutathione S-transferase (GST), (f) Superoxide dismutase (SOD), (g) Catalase (CAT), and (h) Protein content in the ovaries homogenates of Ag-NPs-treated group and the control group. The experiments were performed in six replicates and the results are shown as mean ± SEM (****P ≤ 0.0001, ***P ≤ 0.001, **P ≤ 0.01, *P ≤ 0.05). The results evince significant differences between the different parameters in the Ag-NPs-treated group in comparison with the control insects.
