Starvation Alters Gut Microbiome in Black Soldier Fly (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) Larvae [PDF]
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 ...

Air-Fluidized Aggregates of Black Soldier fly Larvae [PDF]
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 Black soldier fly larvae are a sustainable protein source and play a vital role in the emerging food-waste recycling industry. One of the challenges of raising larvae in dense aggregations is their rise in temperature during feeding, which, if not mitigated, can become lethal to the larvae.

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)

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

Quality of eggs after feed supplements with silkworm pupae (Bombyx mori) and black fly larvae (Hermetia illucens) [PDF]
BIO Web of Conferences, 2022 The quality of hen eggs after partial replacement (7%) of soybean meal with silkworm pupae flour (Bombyx mori) and black soldier fly larvae flour (Hermetia illucens) was studied. Three groups of eggs were examined -C (control, standard feed), K (7% pupae)

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
