Larval Rearing and Nutrition of the Polyphagous Tephritid Pest Anastrepha ludens on Artificial Diets with Calcium Alginate, Agar, or Carrageenan as Gelling Agents at Various Concentrations and across Extreme Larval Density Conditions

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Research on larval rearing and nutrition of tephritid flies on artificial diets is key for the sterile insect technique. Here, we examined the effects of the type of gel (calcium alginate, agar, or carrageenan), at varying percentages in artificial diets

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Biological cycle of the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae: Galleriinae) in Panama

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Entomología
The greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus, 1758), is one of the principal pests in the honeycomb of the European bee Apis mellifera Linnaeus, 1758, around the world. In this experiment, the complete biological cycle of G.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Identification of (20R)‐protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel anti‐SARS‐CoV‐2 compound

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We established a noninfectious BAC‐based SARS‐CoV‐2 replicon that enables antiviral screening under BSL‐2 conditions. Using this platform, we screened 373 food‐derived compounds and identified (20R)‐protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel inhibitor of SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA replication, highlighting the value of safe replicon systems for antiviral ...

Enhanced protein degradation by black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens L.) and its gut microbes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) can convert a variety of organic wastes into biomass, and its gut microbiota are involved in this process. However, the role of gut microbes in the nutrient metabolism of BSFL is unclear. In this study, germ-free BSFL (GF)

De novo synthesis of short‐chain aldehydes and hydrocarbons secreted by the brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, mainly secretes 4‐oxo‐(E)‐2‐hexenal, (E)‐2‐decenal, dodecane and tridecane, a mixture representative of that released by many heteropterans. We demonstrated that H. halys can synthesise these secretory components de novo using dietary glucose.

Silkworm Rearing on Artificial Diet

open access: yesJournal of the agricultural chemical society of Japan, 1963
家蚕を桑粉またはその抽出物を全く含まない人工飼料で,蟻蚕より営繭,産卵までの全令飼育をおこなった. 5令起蚕までの減蚕は5%, 5令起蚕に死亡蚕があり,約60%が上簇し,営繭を全うしたものは約50%であった. 前報の飼育成績に比べて向上した点は,特にアセチルコリンおよび王乳の添加により,飼料を強化したためと考えられる.コリンおよびアセチルコリンが脱皮促進効果を有すること,および王乳はコリン類以外に栄養価にとむ物質が含まれることを指摘した.

Mobile Computing and Artificial Intelligence for Diet Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper proposes a software architecture for automatic diet management and recipes analysis. We devise a virtual dietitian that is able: (1) to recover the nutritional information directly from a specific recipe, (2) to reason over recipes and diets with flexibility, i.e.
