Rearing Chrysoperla externa Larvae on Artificial Diets

Neotropical Entomology, 2016
We tested three artificial diets for rearing larvae of Chrysoperla externa (Hagen) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae), aiming at reducing the production costs of this predator. Two of the diets come from studies with other species of lacewings, and the third is a modification described in this paper.

An artificial diet for shrews (Soricidae)

Anzeiger für Schädlingskunde Pflanzenschutz Umweltschutz, 1994
The common shrew (Sorex araneus L.) and the pygmy shrew (S. minutus L.) could be raised for several months in captivity using the tupaii food Altromin 8010®. The artificial diet was well accepted and the animals increased in weight.

Artificial diets for sea hares

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1979
An artificial diet, made up principally of chemicals set in agar, has given good growth in the sea hare Aplysia dactylomela Rang (13 and 29% increases in live weight in two trials of 24- and 16-day periods, respectively, at 28.5 °C). Spawn production accounted for 65 and 29%, respectively, of these increases in weight.

PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF ARTIFICIAL DIETS

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1969
The physical properties of artificial diets, texture, hardness, homogeneity, and water content are regulated by the addition of cellulose, agar, polysaccharide gums, and other large molecules. These physical aspects are important in promoting good growth and development of insects.The development of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis Boheman, was ...

Artificial Diets for Spiders

2012
Spiders are important constituents of the natural enemy complex of pests in agricultural fields. However, despite its known importance in agriculture, its contribution to pest control is still largely unnoticed. Spiders are good candidates for augmentation by mass rearing and field release since they primarily feed on arthropod pests.

The Absence of the Diet‐Derived 7‐Deazapurine, Queuine in Artificial Liquid Diets

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1989
Queuine is a derivative of guanine found in the transfer RNAs of most organisms including man. Higher mammals cannot synthesize queuine and must obtain it either from their diets or intestinal microflora. Tumor cells often contain much less queuine in their transfer RNAs than do normal cells.

A Cowpea Artificial Diet for Noctuid Larvae

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 1988
A low cost artificial diet was formulated from materials which are locally available in Africa. The diet utilized cowpea, sorghum and corn instead of pinto bean and wheat which are widely used in the USA. The new diet was as satisfactory as the pinto bean diet for all the biological criteria tested.
