Insect infections are dealt with using chitin interference medications.
Insects use chitin to protect insect bodies.
Like fungal infections, inhibit chitin in human body will fight the infection.
4.3.3.6.1 Effect of chitin inhibitors
Chitin synthesis occurs during embryonic, larval, pupal, and adult stages for cuticle deposition and for production of the PM in larvae and adults. The inhibition of chitin synthesis using chemical inhibitors or by introduction of mutations affects insect development at different developmental stages and to varying degrees. Studies with “chitin inhibitors” have provided some insights concerning the role of chitin in development and its biological function.
