“…New protein sources are being investigated in an attempt to supplement the existing limited global protein resources. Potential unexploited natural sources of protein such as insects and microalgae are today subjected to various scientific studies for their nutritional, functional, and safety properties for human consumption (Ademolu et al., 2010; Anand et al., 2008; Auerswald and Lopata, 2005; Gouveia et al., 2008).…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of Spirulina colored soluble protein fractions extracted from spray-dried Spirulina powder. Three fractions, including the blue soluble Spirulina protein, the green soluble Spirulina protein, and the total soluble Spirulina protein fractions were obtained. Investigations on their behavior at air/water interface were carried out using dynamic methods of drop volume and bubble pressure surface tension measurements. Evaluation of their monolayer films' mechanical behavior was done via compression isotherms using Langmuir film balance. The protein contents of the fractions were 82.76, 82.29, and 74.53% for the blue, the green, and the total fractions, respectively. Surface tension decay increased with increasing concentration for all the fractions. No significant difference in surface tension decay was observed between the samples at 0.3% (w/w). Surface tension decay was less important at pH 3 for all the fractions. The total fraction and the blue fraction appeared to form more elastic films than the green fraction. The blue soluble fraction also presented the highest collapse pressure and initial expansion area.

“…The utilization of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae (Hermetia illucens) has emerged as a promising biological waste decomposer of organic wastes. Besides, the larva itself is rich in protein and minerals and thus could be used as animal feed in poultry (Anand et al 2008;Khusro et al 2012) and pig farms as well as fish cultures (Tran et al 2015). It can even yield biodiesel as a value added side product.…”

The semi-organized insect industry of India primarily includes apiculture, sericulture and lac culture. In the last two decades the production of raw silk, including mulberry and "vanya silk", has doubled. An increasing trend for the country has also been observed with regard to honey and beeswax production. India, moreover, stands in the frontline for lac production, but there is immense scope to expand insect-based ventures. For example, sericultural products other than silk come to mind and with regard to apiculture honey, and beeswax need not be the only bee-based commercial items. Insects other than honey bees can be used as food and feed or in the decomposition of waste; some species can be reared and even domesticated as pollinators. In this paper we discuss these unexplored sections, which could open up promising possibilities for the insect-based industry in India as well as other countries.

“…Al utilizar algunos insectos como alternativa en la nutrición animal, varios investigadores se han centrado en estudiar la composición nutricional de la mayoría de las especies de esos insectos utilizados en las dietas, incluidas cuatro especies de acrididas: langostas comunes (Oxya fuscovittata), langostas comunes de la India (Acrida exaltata), langostas del arroz (Hieroglyphus banian) y saltamontes de cuernos cortos (Spathosternum prasiniferum prasiniferum) (Anand et al, 2008;Al-Qazzaz & Ismail, 2015).…”

“…La mayoría de los estudios demuestran que los insectos son una alternativa viable que se caracteriza por tener un mayor contenido de proteína y grasa en comparación a fuentes tradicionales como la harina de soja y pescado, por lo cual, es una opción que puede ser implementada en la producción de alimentos para la nutrición animal (Anand et al, 2008).…”

La producción de insectos como fuente de nutrientes representa una alternativa de producción sostenible, atrayente y adecuada para satisfacer la creciente demanda de alimentos, especialmente para la nutrición animal. Estrategia nutricional que puede ser considerada principalmente por la industria alimentaria, ya que en comparación con otros alimentos de uso común como las harinas de origen animal y la harina de soja, puede aportar cantidades significativas de proteínas, lípidos, minerales, entre otros nutrientes. Estos insectos pueden ser alimentados con residuos agrícolas y desechos orgánicos, siendo esta una de las principales ventajas que refuerzan el uso de este ingrediente en la alimentación animal. Además, disminuyen costos de producción e intervienen en el desenvolvimiento de la microbiota benéfica, reducen la competencia por recursos alimenticios y actúan como inmunomoduladores. Actualmente, algunos estudios resaltan el uso de diversas harinas de insectos con la inclusión o sustitución total de las fuentes convencionales de proteína. Un ingrediente que ofrece resultados significativos de interés zootécnico, generando un impacto positivo en el sistema productivo, por lo cual merece destacarse. El objetivo de esta revisión de literatura es resaltar el uso de insectos en la nutrición animal, principalmente en la avicultura, como una alternativa económicamente viable para el productor en términos de reducción de costos sin afectar el desempeño productivo de los animales. En este sentido, destacar esta temática como una nueva perspectiva en la industria de la alimentación animal y el sector pecuario.
