Effects of a defatting process on the thermal stabilities and volatile compound profiles of proteins isolated from Protaetia brevitarsis larvae

Structural, physicochemical, and immune-enhancing properties of edible insect protein isolates from Protaetia brevitarsis larvae

“…Thus, research on new, more efficient, sustainable, and nutritionally superior alternative food sources is highly needed ( Mariutti et al, 2021 ). Research on edible insects is attracting considerable attention ( Kim et al, 2021 , Lee et al, 2021a ) owing to their several advantages as alternative protein sources over conventional protein sources ( Lee et al, 2023 ). Edible insects reduce ammonia generation, have good feed conversion ratios, and reduce the amount of water required for breeding animal sources ( Lee et al, 2021a ).…”

“…Research on edible insects is attracting considerable attention ( Kim et al, 2021 , Lee et al, 2021a ) owing to their several advantages as alternative protein sources over conventional protein sources ( Lee et al, 2023 ). Edible insects reduce ammonia generation, have good feed conversion ratios, and reduce the amount of water required for breeding animal sources ( Lee et al, 2021a ). In addition, it is expected that they will play an important role in achieving the global environmental goal of carbon neutrality because of their significantly lower CO 2 production, a representative greenhouse gas, compared to that of the existing livestock industry ( Vauterin, Steiner, Sillman, & Kahiluoto, 2021 ).…”

“…Protaetia brevitarsis (PB, white-spotted flower chafer) is a representative edible insect ( Lee et al, 2021a ) containing 58% protein as the major component, 17% lipid, 5% fiber, and 8% ash ( Noh et al, 2018 ). PB is attracting attention as an alternative protein source owing to its high protein and essential amino acid contents ( Kim et al, 2021 ).…”

Effects of hydrolysis and swelling on structural and functional properties of Hermetia illucens L.: insoluble protein in residue fraction

“…Insects generally contain a large amount of protein, lipids, and chitin. Insect proteins are in the spotlight as food or feed resources (Lee et al, 2021a). Edible insect protein has high productivity and reduced carbon consumption compared to conventional livestock proteins (Kim et al, 2022a;Patel et al, 2019).…”

Headspace stir‐bar sorptive extraction combined with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry for trace analysis of volatile organic compounds in Schisandra chinensis Baillon (omija)

“…Sample extraction is a very important step that can lead to serious errors owing to the loss of a large amount of analyte (Andrade‐Eiroa et al, 2016 ). Therefore, many sample extraction methods have been developed and are constantly being modified, and new methods have been developed to achieve optimal analytical results (Lee, Cha, et al, 2021 ; Marín‐San Román et al, 2020 ; Serrano de la Hoz et al, 2016 ). Liquid–liquid extraction, solid‐phase extraction, simultaneous distillation extraction, and distillation under reduced pressure, which are well‐known conventional sample extraction techniques, have been reported to have several problems, such as low reproducibility, low selectivity, and difficult automatization (Marín‐San Román et al, 2020 ; Song et al, 2021 ).…”
