Several studies have already studied the supplementation of insect oils in broiler chicken, turkey, and Japanese quail diets, demonstrating total or partial replacement of commonly used fat and oil sources (Cullere et al, 2016;Cullere et al, 2017;Schiavone et al, 2017;Kierończyk et al, 2018Benzertiha et al, 2019;Kierończyk et al, 2020;Kim et al, 2020;Sypniewski et al, 2020).

The aim of this review is to discuss the usage of insect fats as an energy source in animal nutrition. Insects are a rich carrier of proteins, fat, and minerals. They are successfully introduced in animal diets (poultry, swine, rabbits, fish, and pets) as a source of many nutrients, including energy and essential fatty acids (FAs). The insects’ fat content and quality are highly affected by the type of substrate provided to the insects during the rearing period. The majority of the studies have shown that insect fats may be used as promising substitutes for conventional energy resources in animal nutrition without adverse effects on growth performance and feed utilization. They can positively affect meat quality by increasing the level of long-chain polyunsaturated FAs but may also positively influence animals by regulating the gut microbiota and stimulating the immune system. In conclusion, insect fat supplementation showed promising results in terms of their application in animal nutrition. However, compared to insect protein application, very few studies have been performed on insect fats. Therefore, because of the fat quality and content of insects, there is a need to extend experimentation regarding their implementation in animals’ diets as a replacement for conventional dietary energy resources.

“…Recently, insects are receiving great attention as novel alternative feed ingredients because of their excellent nutritive properties [11] and their potential effect on animal health [12,13]. It has been shown that insects have the ability to modulate the intestinal microbiota with positive effects on poultry growth, health and resistance against pathogens [13][14][15][16][17]. Lipids are a main component of insects (30-40% of the dry matter, DM) [18] and, once extracted during the insect larvae processing, they can be used as an interesting feed ingredient in animal farming [12-13; 19-24] Black soldier y (Hermetia illucens, HI) and Yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor, TM) fats are characterized by a different fatty acid (FA) pro le.…”

“…Signi cant in vitro gut antimicrobial effects against D-Streptococci and Lactobacilli have also been attributed to HI prepupae fat [28]. In a recent study, Sypniewski et al [13] showed that the addition of HI fat to replace soybean oil (S) in turkey diets signi cantly reduced the presence of potentially pathogenic microbes and decreased gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in ammation by modulating the level of IL-6 and TNF-α.…”

Background The study aimed to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activities of two types of insect fats extracted from black soldier fly larvae (HI, Hermetia illucens L.) and yellow mealworm larvae (TM, Tenebrio molitor L.) and their effects as dietary replacement of soybean oil (S) on caecal fermentation pattern, and faecal and caecal microbiota in rabbits. Results A total of 120 weaned rabbits were randomly allotted to 3 dietary treatments (40 rabbits/group): a control diet (C diet) containing 1.5% of S and two experimental diets (HID and TMD) where S was totally substituted by HI or TM fats. Regarding the in vitro antimicrobial activities, HI and TM fats did not show any effects on Salmonella growth. Yersinia enterocolitica showed lower growth when challenged with insect fats than the controls. The insect fat supplementation in rabbit diets increased the contents of the caecal volatile fatty acids when compared to the control group. A metataxonomic approach was adopted to investigate the shift in the microbial composition as a function of the dietary insect fat supplementation. The microbiota did not show a clear separation as a function of the inclusion, even if a specific microbial signature was observed. Indeed, HI and TM fat supplementation enriched the presence of Akkermansia that was found to be correlated with NH3-N concentration. An increase in Ruminococcus, which can improve the immune response of the host, was also observed. Conclusions This study confirms the potential of HI and TM fats as antibacterial feed ingredients with a positive influence on the rabbit caecal microbiota, thus supporting the possibility of including HI and TM fats in rabbit diets.

The pursuit of novel food products with good nutritional value for both direct and indirect human consumption is crucial. Given the nutritional benefits of insects and the sustainability of this sort of farming, using them as food for farmed animals is a promising alternative. In this regard, the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) is most capable of efficiently converting a wide variety of organic materials, from food waste to manure, into insect biomass generating value and closing nutrient loops as they reduce pollution and costs. Their larvae have 29% fat and 42% crude protein, yet they have more saturated fats than most insects. They don't concentrate hazards such as mycotoxins or insecticides. Although rapid development is expected, insects remain underutilized in the animal feed industry mainly due to technical, financial, and regulatory barriers. The social stigmas and legal prohibitions against eating organisms that eat waste are added to extant taboos facing insect consumption. Bridging the knowledge gap is crucial to bring together stakeholders and to better understand the opportunities and challenges of this novel industry, so as to develop guidelines on producing insects on an industrial scale to facilitate the wider use of BSF products as animal feed, and fertilizer.
