Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...

Proteomic analysis of Sarcoptes scabiei reveals that proteins differentially expressed between eggs and female adult stages are involved predominantly in genetic information processing, metabolism and/or host-parasite interactions

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
Presently, there is a dearth of proteomic data for parasitic mites and their relationship with the host animals. Here, using a high throughput LC-MS/MS-based approach, we undertook the first comprehensive, large-scale proteomic investigation of egg and ...

Biology of predatory mite, Amblyseius longispinosus (Evens) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) on broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks)

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PLANT PROTECTION, 2017
Biological parameters of A.longispinosus was recorded by feeding on broad mite, P. latusat Acarology Laboratory, Department of Entomology, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat during April to June of the year 2014 and 2015. The results indicated that the mean of immature period for egg, larvae, protonymph and deutonymph were 2.33±0.49,

Transdiagnostic profiles of socio‐affective functioning in adolescents at‐risk of poor mental health

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adolescence is a developmental period during which many mental health problems emerge or worsen. Recently, there has been a shift towards identifying risk factors that predict psychopathology across a range of diagnostic boundaries—known as ‘transdiagnostic’ approaches.

Adaptive Immunity in Marsupials

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Comparison of the marsupial and eutherian adaptive immune systems. ABSTRACT Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125–160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences.

A novel Bartonella-like bacterium forms an interdependent mutualistic symbiosis with its host, the stored-product mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae

mSystems
A novel Bartonella-like symbiont (BLS) of Tyrophagus putrescentiae was characterized. BLS formed a separate cluster from the Bartonella clade together with an ant symbiont. BLS was present in mite bodies (103 16S DNA copies/mite) and feces but was absent
