Among the insect species reared as alternative protein sources, Hermetia illucens (black soldier Fly, BSF) has shown a huge potential mostly due to its high content, bioconversion rates, and versatility in using different feeding substrates. Insect rearing may use continuous or batch regimes and, among used substrates, supermarket feedstock waste gained recent interest under circular economy perspective, but several uncertainties remain regarding heterogeneity effects of quantity quality these substrates on BSF larvae (BSFL) development. In this experimental work, five replicates hundred BSFL were fed regime, seven isolated vegetables (wheat bran, pumpkin, apple, grape pomace, red onion, cabbage, spinach), at three temperatures (20, 25, 30 °C) two substrate moisture conditions (natural 70% moisture), until 50% achieved prepupal stage. performance parameters evaluated. Our results show that some should be avoided when feedstocks. these, apple feed led poorer slower development performances with more than 100 days larval stage, while pomace spinach showed higher mortality which anti-nutritional compounds. Larvae onion presented good values efficiency conversion digested between 14.4 25. This work delivers relevant for black fly system vegetable their trade-offs.

Carotenoids modulate stress tolerance and immune responses in aquatic animals

Reviews in Aquaculture, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 15(2), С. 872 - 894

Abstract Aquaculture continues to expand swiftly and remains the fastest‐growing food industry worldwide amidst ever‐present threats from chronic stressors emerging diseases. Nutrition plays a pivotal role in profitability viability of aquaculture that steered paradigm shift therapeutic nutrition. Carotenoids, also termed tetraterpenoids, have garnered considerable attention owing their attributes immeasurable health benefits, which incited surge global demand. These biological pigments are recognized promote immune systems antioxidant defence mechanisms both aquatic vertebrates invertebrates. This review brings forth existing scientific evidence underscores notable roles carotenoids as biologically active constituents with anti‐stress immunostimulatory potentials farmed animals whilst explicating possible action. Empirical data unequivocally established modulatory functions on endogenous enzymes, innate adaptive arms response, well expression multiple immune‐related genes. The comprehensive information presented is beneficial deepen our understanding utilization potent stress alleviators immunostimulants cultured animals, translated into improved health. Advancements animal welfare could principally contribute reconstructing more sustainable industry. article may be useful for subsequent investigations towards further advances research innovation greener blue revolution solving challenge security.
