This study sought to evaluate the behavioural and biochemical effects of Dextran Sodium Sulphate (DSS) on the oxidative stress biomarkers and antioxidant enzymes. Drosophila melanogaster (both sexes) of 3 days old were exposed to various DSS incorporated diets at concentrations, 0.5 -3.0% for a period of 14 days (Survival rate). The second phase comprised of 3 groups; Group I-Control (normal diet), Group II-0.5% DSS, and Group III -1.0% DSS and fed for 5 days. Climbing activity and biochemical
