Environmental Biotechnology: Biodegradation of Microplastics with Larvae of Tenebrio Molitor and Galleria Mellonella

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
Plastics have become one of the serious problems with a significant negative impact, especially in the sea, due to their long biodegradation time. This is further aggravated when the size of microplastics is reduced because of the exposure to mechanical ...

Galleria mellonella: The Versatile Host for Drug Discovery, In Vivo Toxicity Testing and Characterising Host-Pathogen Interactions

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Larvae of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, are a convenient in vivo model for assessing the activity and toxicity of antimicrobial agents and for studying the immune response to pathogens and provide results similar to those from mammals.

Galleria mellonella are Resistant to Pneumocystis murina Infection [PDF]

open access: yesMycopathologia, 2010
Studying Pneumocystis has proven to be a challenge from the perspective of propagating a significant amount of the pathogen in a facile manner. The study of several fungal pathogens has been aided by the use of invertebrate model hosts. Our efforts to infect the invertebrate larvae Galleria mellonella with Pneumocystis proved futile since P.

Oxidative Impact of Dietary Triclabendazole in Galleria mellonella

open access: yesKafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakultesi Dergisi, 2021
Recent studies have shown that anthelmintic and antifungal agents are recommended as alternative agents in chemical control of insect pests. In this study, first instar larvae of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, were reared on artificial diets containing 0.001, 0.01, and 0.1 g/100 g of triclabendazole, an anthelmintic benzimidazole.

Probiotics research in Galleria mellonella [PDF]

open access: yesVirulence, 2015
Probiotics are “live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.” In essence, this definition was first coined in 2001 by an international expert panel convened by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the WHO.1 Validity and acceptance of the definition over the years ...
