Abstract: The processing technics of oligo-chitosan chewing tablets processed from housefly larvae and its function of lowering hyperlipemia were studied in this paper. The results indicated that the use of ethanol as solvent was better than water. When the concentration of the ethanol was 30% and the amount added was 8% (V/W), they were the optimal conditions to make granules. When magnesium was added 0.2%(W/W), it made extrude the tablets satisfactorily. The results of animal and crowd tests showed that oligo-chitosan extracted from housefly larvae has remarkable function of lowering hyperlipemia.
