Abstract

Insects and the substances extracted from them have been used as medicinal resources by human cultures all over the world throughout history. Though insects were widely used for medical treatment of a wide range of disease as traditional, relatively little medical research was conducted. However, recently developed resistance to antibiotics commonly used has forced scientists to look for new sources of antibiotics. In this study, importance and use of insects in traditional and modern medicine from past to present was expressed

Özet

Böcekler ve onlardan elde edilen maddeler, tarih boyunca dünya üzerinde değişik toplumlarca ilaç kaynağı olarak kullanılmıştır. İnsanlarda görülen çeşitli hastalıkların geleneksel yöntemlerle tedavilerinde böcekler yaygın olarak kullanılmasına rağmen nispeten çok az bilimsel araştırmalara konu olmuştur. Ancak, son zamanlarda yaygın olarak kullanılan antibiyotiklere karşı gelişen direnç bilim insanlarını yeni antibiyotik kaynakları aramaya zorlamıştır. Bu çalışmada, böceklerin geçmişten günümüze geleneksel ve modern tıpta kullanımı ve önemi ifade edilmeye çalışılmıştır
