Abstract

The increased cost of fishmeal in compounding fish feed has prompted the use of cheaper and readily accessible animal protein (insect protein). The effects of garlic powder supplement in diets fed to the 3rd nymphal stages of Blattodea germanica and Supella longipalpa on bacterial activities were...

Abstract

Dairy proteins are commonly used to stabilize oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, which can be replaced by other sustainable sources of proteins, such as insects. This study investigated the potential of lesser mealworm protein concentrate (LMPC) as a sustainable alternative to whey protein isolate (WPI) ...

Abstract

In 2005 and 2010, the European Commission (EC) published two subsequent 'Road Maps' to provide options for relaxation of the bans on the application of animal proteins in feed. Since then, the food production system has changed considerably and demands for more sustainability and circularity are...

Abstract

The growing demand for broilers production is related to environmental and economic impacts worldwide, increasing the urgency to find alternative feed ingredients. Recent studies indicated the productive potential of some insect species, which may serve as a protein and lipid source for animal...

AbstractFull Text

The rise in the world's demand for fish is increasingly met by aquaculture. However, this sector still shows various criticalities in terms of sustainability of practices, first and foremost, that of feed availability. Nowadays, the use of insect meal represents one of the potential sustainable...

Abstract

Recent studies on the composition of edible insects have placed more emphasis on the quantity and quality of macro- and micronutrients and less emphasis on their bioactive components. This study aimed to assess the effect of 0-100% ethanol solvent ratio considering 5-hydroxyindolin-2-one (5-HI)...

Abstract

Due to their advantageous nutrient composition and high feed conversion efficiency, insects may be an alternative protein source for human and animal nutrition. Recently authorised for feeding purposes in the European Union, silkworm pupae are vastly and cheaply available by-products from...

Abstract

The black soldier fly (BSF) Hermetia illucens (L.) (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) is a beneficial insect species of great environmental and economic potential. Previous studies showed that providing a suitable pupation substrate can accelerate BSF pupation and increase pupation rate. However, the effect...

Abstract

Background: In contrast to protein-rich insect meal, the feed potential of insect fat is generally less explored and knowledge about the suitability of insect fat as a fat source specifically in broiler diets is still limited. In view of this, the present study aimed to comprehensively investigate...
