Abstract: Monitoring of possible impact of environmental pollutants concentration can be assessed using oxidative stress parameters such as protein carbonyls amount, levels of and antioxidant enzymatic system. The potential assessment ensures the impacts of environmental contamination on living organisms. The concentration of protein carbonyls in the brain of Coccinella undecimpuctata and Physiophora alceae were significantly difference between each other with the value of 48.77, and 28.66 respectively. Also, the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as CAT, and APOX were significantly difference. Specific pollution resulting from the normal levels of the environmental pollutants caused comparable adverse effects in the brain of flies and ladybird beetle when compared with other tissues. Therefore, the success of using of insect tissue sensitivity, inform of oxidative stress parameters, as a result of exposure to normal levels of environmental pollutants was discussed.
