Black soldier fly as feed ingredient for ruminants [PDF]

Animal Bioscience, 2022
This paper is a review of some experiments using black soldier fly (BSF) and its by-product to explore their nutritional value, production potential in Indonesia and its application in the ration of ruminants. Evaluation on the effect of milk replacer, creep feed containing BSF, BSF frass and the possibility to use lactic acid bacteria from BSF as ...

The armoured cuticle of the black soldier fly Hermetia illucens [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
AbstractWe characterise in detail the larval and pupal cuticle of the black soldier fly Hermetia illucens L. (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), a key insect species in circular economy. In particular, we focus on ultrastructure using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, material characterization and composition (elements and minerals) with confocal ...

Insects as feed: house fly or black soldier fly? [PDF]

Journal of Insects as Food and Feed, 2020
Industrialised rearing of house flies and black soldier flies in systems for producing protein offers numerous species-specific benefits and challenges. These two dipteran species offer great potential for mass production of protein rich feed ingredients on a global scale.

Digestibility and safety of dry black soldier fly larvae meal and black soldier fly larvae oil in dogs

Journal of Animal Science, 2021
Abstract Two trials were conducted to assess the acceptance, safety and digestibility of diets containing various inclusion levels of partially defatted black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae (BSFL) meal and BSFL oil by dogs. In trial 1, 5 extruded diets were evaluated for acceptance in adult Beagle dogs (n = 20; 10 male, 10 female)

Morphofunctional characterization of hemocytes in black soldier fly larvae

Insect Science, 2022
AbstractIn insects, the cell‐mediated immune response involves an active role of hemocytes in phagocytosis, nodulation, and encapsulation. Although these processes have been well documented in multiple species belonging to different insect orders, information concerning the immune response, particularly the hemocyte types and their specific function in

Black Soldier Fly Larvae Rearrange under Compression [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2019
AbstractThousands of black soldier larvae hatch simultaneously from eggs laid within rotting vegetation or animal carcasses. Over the next few weeks, they grow while compressed by both their surroundings and each other. When compressed, these larvae rearrange to reduce the forces upon them. How quickly can larvae rearrange, and what final state do they

Compilation of Black Soldier Fly Frass Analyses [PDF]

Journal of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 2021
AbstractIn the context of black soldier fly (BSF) rearing, often the residues from production — mainly faeces but also undigested substrate — are addressed as frass in a broader sense. As BSF production is expanding, the valorization of BSF frass as organic fertilizer is gaining importance.

An effect of fat emulsions of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae on the germination capacity and energy of sprouting of pea (Pisum sativum L.) seeds

Пищевые системы, 2022
Various oils, fats and emulsifiers in the composition of preparations for soil enrichment or plant protection can have a significant effect on the germination capacity and energy of sprouting of pea seeds.

Starvation Alters Gut Microbiome in Black Soldier Fly (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) Larvae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Unlike for vertebrates, the impact of starvation on the gut microbiome of invertebrates is poorly studied. Deciphering shifts in metabolically active associated bacterial communities in vertebrates has led to determining the role of the associated ...
