  1. 1. Effect of different food by-products on Tenebrio molitor growth and development in an industrial environment

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Anton Laggar Andreasson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Tenebrio molitor; yellow mealworm; growth; development; industrial farming; wet feed; dry feed; by-products; insects; insects as food and feed; maturation; pupation;

    Sammanfattning : Due to an increasing need for high-quality protein around the world, eyes are turning towards alternative methods of farming, such as insect farms. As insects can eat what humans cannot, e.g. food by-products, they can be a part of sustainable food systems. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Insects raised on food waste : a new source of feed and food?

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Elisabet Henriksson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :mealworm; food waste; insects as food; insects as feed; black soldier fly; nutrition; sustainable food; sustainable feed;

    Sammanfattning : An increasing global population demands an increase in food production, while human impact on the planet necessarily must be decreased to decelerate climate change. Resources currently lost as food waste could potentially be utilized to increase world food production amount and efficiency by feeding it to insects. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Nutritional value of some insects and their impact on post weaning diarrhoea caused by Escherichia coli

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Therese Schönborg; [2017]
    Nyckelord :black soldier fly; house cricket; mealworm larvae; chitin; chitosan;

    Sammanfattning : Insects like Black soldier fly (Hermetia Illucens), Mealworm larvae (Tenebrio Molitor) and House cricket (Acheta Domesticus) are of interest as possible sources of protein to be fed to monogastic animals like pigs and poultry, as they are all thought to have nutrient compositions similar to soybean- or fish meal. This is of interest as the demand for high quality protein is increasing in time with the growing world population. LÄS MER
