Optimization of Production Methods for Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens L.) in Burkina Faso

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Larvae of Hermetia illucens are a valuable source of protein for animal feed that can be produced by exposing animal and agro-industrial wastes to naturally occurring flies. The objective of this study was to improve techniques for obtaining H.

Impact of Rearing Substrates on Black Soldier Fly Growth and Fertility: A Semi-Industrial Scale Study to Optimize Egg Collection

open access: yesInsects
Juvenile environments can influence adult phenotypes in holometabolous insects. This study examines the effects of larval rearing substrates on the reproductive outcomes of Black Soldier Flies (BSFs) at a semi-industrial scale. Larvae were reared on five

Fumonisin B1 Production by Fusarium Species and Mycotoxigenic Effect on Larval Zebrafish

open access: yesTropical Life Sciences Research, 2020
Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is a common mycotoxin produced by Fusarium species particularly F. proliferatum and F. verticillioides. The toxin produced can cause adverse effects on humans and animals. The objectives of this study were to detect the production of FB1 based on the amplification of FUM1 gene, to quantify FB1 produced by the isolates using Ultra ...

Enhancing oocyte maturation and fertilisation in the black-foot limpet Patella candei d′Orbigny, 1840 (Patellidae, Mollusca)

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
Limpet species are subjected to pressures of high exploitation. In the Madeira Archipelago (Portugal), the limpes are an economic and traditional fishing resource whose exploitation is regulated, to reduce the impact over the native populations.

Developmental toxicity of disinfection by-product monohaloacetamides in embryo-larval stage of zebrafish

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020
As an emerging class of nitrogenous disinfection by-products (N-DBPs), haloacetamides (HAcAms) have been widely detected in drinking water. Limited toxicity studies have shown an inconsistent toxicity of monoHAcAms, including CAcAm, BAcAm and IAcAm.

Effect of body size heterogeneity on the aggressive behavior of larvae of matrinxã, Brycon amazonicus (Characiformes, Bryconidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2018
Brycon amazonicus is a native Amazonian fish that is important for aquaculture in South America. Larval mortality is high in this species in intensive breeding systems due to aggressiveness among larvae.
