Effect of thermal processing on mealworm allergenicity

Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, 2015
ScopeThe growing world population requires the exploration of new sustainable protein sources to ensure food security. Insects such as mealworm are promising candidates. For safety reasons, a risk assessment, including allergy risks, is needed. Since allergenicity can be influenced by thermal processing, it is highly important to take this into account.

Pass the Mealworms, Please: Using Mealworms to Develop Science Process Skills

Science Activities: Classroom Projects and Curriculum Ideas, 2004
Mealworms, yum yum! Insects are an exciting way for middle school students to acquire science process skills. A teacher eating a mealworm will certainly capture the attention of students, and explaining the common practice of insect eating among people in other countries is a great way to include culture in a science lesson.

Mealworm asthma: clinical and immunologic studies

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1983
Mealworms are larvae of the Tenibrio molitor (Tm) beetle and are widely used as fishing bait. Four of five bait handlers in a warehouse who were exposed to particulates of Tm exoskeletons reported immediate-onset asthma, rhinitis, or contact urticaria while unwrapping and packaging the larvae.

Translational control in the mealworm, Tenebrio molitor

Nature, 1975
ONE of the best known examples of translational control in a eukaryotic system comes from studies on the mealworm, Tenebrio molitor, in which control of the synthesis of adult cuticular proteins at the translational level has been proposed1–7. From experiments using actinomycin D, it was concluded that the mRNAs for some of the adult cuticular proteins
