Insects as sustainable source of feed for poultry

JSFA reports, Volume 5, Issue 9, Page 370-383, September 2025.
Abstract Production of animal feed in an environmentally effective way is the key point for the development of sustainable agriculture. The livestock farming industry is increasing globally to meet the demand for animal protein, resulting in higher food–feed competition while rationing animal diets. In addition, it creates increased pressure on natural

Food Waste–Derived Organic Fertilizers: Critical Insights, Agronomic Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Adoption

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Food waste is one of the fastest growing sustainability challenges, wasting scarce resources and aggravating environmental degradation. Its valorization into organic fertilizers provides a critical opportunity to recover nutrients, reduce landfill burdens, and strengthen circular bioeconomy strategies. This review critically examines FW‐derived organic

Phytoremediation of Nitrogen as Green Chemistry for Wastewater Treatment System

International Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
It is noteworthy that ammoniacal nitrogen contamination in wastewater has reportedly posed a great threat to the environment. Although there are several conventional technologies being employed to remediate ammoniacal nitrogen contamination in wastewater, they are not sustainable and cost‐effective.

Household dog fecal composting: Current issues and future directions

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1876-1891, November 2024.
Abstract Dog feces are a known source of nutrient, pathogen, and plastic pollution that can harm human and ecosystem health. Home composting may be a more environmentally sustainable method of managing dog feces and reducing this pollution. While composting is an established method for recycling animal manures into low‐risk soil conditioners for food ...

Pharmacological effects of bioactive agents in earthworm extract: A comprehensive review

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 653-672, October 2024.
EE blocks platelet adhesion and activation at the site of vascular injury. After vascular injury, many subendothelial matrix proteins are exposed to blood, including von Willebrand factor (vWF), fibrillar collagens, fibronectin and laminin, which facilitate platelet adhesion by binding to specific receptors on platelets; vWF binds the platelet GPIb‐V ...
