Novel Insights on the Sustainable Wet Mode Fractionation of Black Soldier Fly Larvae (<i>Hermetia illucens</i>) into Lipids, Proteins and Chitin
The black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) is a sustainable ingredient for feed applications, biofuels, composite materials and other biobased products. Processing BSFL to obtain lipid and protein fractions with enhanced functional properties as a suitable replacement for conventional feed ingredients has...
