Globally, the yearly disposal of 1.3 billion tonnes food raises environmental and public health concerns. Black soldier fly (BSF) larvae present a sustainable solution, converting organic waste into nutrient-rich biomass. The extracted oil from BSF larvae, rich in fatty acids (FA), offers an eco-friendly alternative for cosmetic industry. In this study, sourced Portuguese company were fed olive pomace, by-product production. lipidic sample revealed composition high oleic acid, valuable...

Natural products have been used since ancient times to produce medicines. Nowadays, there are plenty of chemotherapeutic drugs obtained from natural sources and against a plethora diseases. Unfortunately, most these compounds often display systemic toxicity adverse effects. In order better evaluate the tolerability selected potentially bioactive samples, brine shrimp (Artemia salina) is generally as model in lethality studies. The A. salina test based on ability studied kill microcrustaceans...
