Riboflavin content in autofluorescent earthworm coelomocytes is species-specific.
We have recently shown that a large proproportion of earthworm coelomocytes exhibit strong autofluorescence in some species (Dendrobaena veneta, Allolobophora chlorotica, Dendrodrilus rubidus, Eisenia fetida, and Octolasion spp.), while autofluorescent ...

ABSTRACT Agricultural production practices are facing ever‐increasing constraints under a climate demanding more sustainable practices be implemented. One promising solution that has received a lot of attention of late is black soldier fly (BSF) composting. Here we evaluated the application of BSF‐derived compost in comparison to commercially available

Cadmium Disposition in the Earthworm Eisenia fetida
The disposition of cadmium was examined in the earthworm Eisenia fetida using two exposure media, filter paper, and artificial soil. Uptake and elimination rates were estimated to be 0.03039 and 0.00895 hr-1, respectively, for 1.25 micrograms Cd/cm2 filter paper exposure and 0.00512 and 0.00029 hr-1, respectively, for 10 micrograms Cd/g artificial soil
