Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 51, December 23, 2025.Nanoscale chitin fiber orientations in the insect wing play a critical role in adapting to complex mechanical demands. These findings reveal two distinct and functionally adaptive chitin orientation patterns in the membranes that vary regionally, optimizing mechanical resilience and deformation control.

Processing of sky compass cues and wide-field motion in the central complex of the desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) [PDF]
, 2018 1. Polarization-sensitive neurons of the locust central complex show azimuthdependent responses to unpolarized light spots. This suggests that direct sunlight supports the sky polarization compass in this brain area. / 2.
