A Comprehensive Look at the Possibilities of Edible Insects as Food in Europe – a Review (2014, background): “It is also important that Brought to you by | Univerzita Tomase Bati ve Zline Authenticated Download Date | 11/13/14 4:56 PM insects are able to recycle organic waste and provide nutrients for farm animals [St-Hilaire et al., 2007; Myers et al., 2008; Diener et al., 2009].”
Nutritional value of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.) and its suitability as animal feed – a review (2017, methodology): “…is employed in sustainable recycling of animal waste (Myers et al., 2008; Nguyen et al., 2013; Newton et al., 2005b; Sheppard et al., 1994), faeces (Diener et al., 2009; Lalander et al., 2013; Oonincx et al., 2015a), and other types of organic waste (Diener et al., 2011; Green and Popa, 2012;…”
High waste-to-biomass conversion and efficient Salmonella spp. reduction using black soldier fly for waste recycling (2014, neutral): “The feed portions were adjusted to the estimated number of larvae present in the reactors, to a feeding rate of 100 mg per larvae per day (Diener et al. 2009); at steady-state each unit was fed 5.4 kg per week.”
Bioaccumulation of heavy metals in the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens and effects on its life cycle (2015, positive): “The final larval instar of H. illucens is called the prepupa and consists of 32-44% raw protein and 33-35% crude fat (Booram et al. , 1977; Diener et al. , 2009; St-Hilaire et al. , 2007).”
Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Meal as a Promising Feed Ingredient for Poultry: A Comprehensive Review (2020, methodology): “[87] used chicken feed with different levels of daily feed consumption in order to estimate the optimum daily feed intake for the bioconversion system.”
Review of Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) as Animal Feed and Human Food (2017, background): “Such a maintained colony could ideally produce 145 g/m2 dry mass of BSL prepupae daily [72].”
Consumers’ Perspective on Circular Economy Strategy for Reducing Food Waste (2017, background): “In this field, satisfactory results about the possibility of breeding insects on organic substrates and organic waste have already been obtained [40,41].”
Standardisation of quantitative resource conversion studies with black soldier fly larvae (2020, methodology): “Density affects parameters such as development time, survival, and weight (Barragan-Fonseca et al. , 2018; Diener et al. , 2009).”
Bioconversion of Rice straw waste by black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens L.) : Optimal feed rate for biomass production (2016, background): “[9] and ~16 mg dry weight Rachmawati et al.”
