The demand of optimal protein for human consumption is growing. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has highlighted aquaculture as one the most promising alternatives this supply gap due to high efficiency fish growth. However, been facing its own sustainability problem, because traditionally satisfied with use fishmeal (FM) main source. Some sustainable substitutes FM come from insects. present manuscript provides insight into an experiment carried out on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus...
The aquaculture industry is diminishing the amount of fishmeal needed to maintain its protein demand. Alternatives are tested in this way, being insects one most promising. In study, two different insectmeals were at replacement proportions (150 and 300 g·kg-1) diets for Oncorhynchus mykiss. This study covers diverse aspects related growth, utilization, physiological status fish, quality final product. inclusion had no negative effects on utilization fish. At highest level with Tenebrio...
Hermetia illucens and Tenebrio molitor were tested on account of their potential to replace fish protein in feed. Two levels replacement for H. illucens, 30% 50% (H30 H50), one T. molitor, (T50), as well an additional diet with a modified fatty acid fraction (H50M), investigated relation juvenile Sparus aurata growth indices, enzyme activities gut microbiome. A T50 showed similar results control (C) diet, no significant differences regarding morphological indices minor nutritional indices....
With the purpose of improving aquaculture sustainability, search for protein alternatives to fishmeal makes it necessary test different variables and possible repercussions new ingredients. The use insect meal as a source is well described, but complex composition meals (fat other components) can affect physiology fish. For this reason, part bigger study, aim current manuscript was diets based on three presentations coming from yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor): full fat, partially...
Aquaculture struggles with sustainability due to the use of fishmeal, and insects are one potential alternative. Insects have low long-chain omega−3 polyunsaturated fatty acid content, insect-fed fish reflect this in their composition. In total, 500 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, ~46 g) were fed until reached a commercial size (~415 g). Five diets used: control based on fishmeal as main source protein; two 50% replacement yellow mealworm meal (Tenebrio molitor), full-fat insect, another...
