Biofortified black soldier fly larvae meal as an alternative to crystalline amino acid supplementation in diets for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

TL;DR
Results suggest that amino acid limitations in BSFL-based diets can affect feed efficiency and intestinal structure in rainbow trout, but these effects were mitigated by either crystalline amino acid supplementation or substrate biofortification of the insect biomass.
The study evaluated the potential of defatted black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) as a sustainable alternative to fish meal (FM) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) diets while promoting organic waste valorisation through a circular economy approach. Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) (Hermetia illucens) were reared...

To evaluate the economic and ecological potential of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) slurry as a fishmeal alternative, 270 juvenile Pangasius (initial body weight: 7.20 ± 0.07 g) were acclimated for two weeks and randomly allocated to three dietary treatments (T0, T1, T2), with three biological replicates per treatment...

The use of aquaculture feed ingredients based on wild fish capture is an ecological concern since it leads to natural habitat destruction and loss of biodiversity. Addressing this concern, black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) has been suggested as a promising alternative ingredient to replace fish meal. To date, t...

Black Soldier Fly Larvae Meal (BSFLM), a sustainable insect protein source, shows promise as a beneficial alternative ingredient in pet food formulations due to its high protein content and beneficial oil composition. Chitin, an insoluble fiber present in BSFL, may also modulate gut microbiota and production of short...
