Antioxidant Activity and Quality Evaluation of the Larvae of Protaetia brevitarsis after Feeding with Korean Panax ginseng

Effects of Edible Insect Powders as Meat Partial Substitute on Physicochemical Properties and Storage Stability of Pork Patties

“…P. brevitarsis seulensis L. is a phytophagous insect belonging to Cetoniinae and has traditionally been used to treat inflammation, breast cancer, and liver disease. Its larvae have been proven to have various physiological effects such as antioxidant and antibacterial effects ( Choi et al, 2019 ; Song et al, 2017 ; Suh and Kang, 2012 ; Yoon et al, 2003 ). G. bimaculatus belongs to Orthoptera and has the highest protein content and unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) content ( Churchward-Venne et al, 2017 ; Wang et al, 2004 ).…”

Nutritional Composition of White-Spotted Flower Chafer (Protaetia brevitarsis) Larvae Produced from Commercial Insect Farms in Korea

“…With the recent world trend, in South Korea, an interest in edible insects has also been growing constantly, and the scale of edible insect farming and the related commercial markets has been increasing rapidly (Ghosh et al, 2017). Choi et al (2019) have suggested that the nutritional composition of the P. brevitarsis larvae could be affected by feeding sources, similarly to conventional livestock. Moreover, it has been reported that differences in feeding sources have a greater impact on the nutritional composition of P. brevitarsis larvae compared to the conventional livestock, since it has more short and simple digestive system (Yoon et al, 2020).…”

“…With the registration of P. brevitarsis larvae as a general food ingredient, recent studies have noted that of the proximate composition of P. brevitarsis larvae varied considerably: moisture (3.99%–7.98%), protein (42.46%–57.86%), fat (7.33%–26.70%), ash (3.96%–8.45%), and carbohydrate (10.56%–23.71%) ( Chung et al, 2013 ; Ghosh et al, 2017 ; Jeong et al, 2020 ; Kim et al, 2017 , Yeo et al, 2013 ). Regarding the large variation in proximate composition, Choi et al (2019) have suggested that the nutritional composition of the P. brevitarsis larvae could be affected by feeding sources, similarly to conventional livestock. Moreover, it has been reported that differences in feeding sources have a greater impact on the nutritional composition of P. brevitarsis larvae compared to the conventional livestock, since it has more short and simple digestive system ( Yoon et al, 2020 ).…”

Physicochemical and textural properties of emulsions prepared from the larvae of the edible insects Tenebrio molitor, Allomyrina dichotoma, and Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis

“…T. molitor is mostly used as animal feed or as a protein supplement because it is rich in protein and essential fatty acids. The white-spotted flower chafer ( Protaetia brevitarsis ) is a carnivorous insect belonging to the Cetoniidae family that undergoes complete transformation from the eggs, larvae, and pupa, to the imago [ 12 ]. The Korean rhinoceros beetle ( Allomyrina dichotoma ), belonging to the Scarabaeidae family, is known to inhabit Korea, Japan, China, and Taiwan.…”
