C18:2 cis9,12 was the main ω-6 FA present in the lipid extracts, and its high presence in the feed might have been responsible for the high ω-6/ω-3 ratio.
(2014) found a fat content of 7.8% using aqueous extraction, of which 75% are unsaturated fatty acids (52% mono unsaturated and 23% poly unsaturated) the ratio ω-6/ω-3 was 24:1, which is higher than the ratio of 17:1 recommended by FAO (2010). Fat values range from 14 to 32 g/100 g dry matter, of which 21–62% are polyunsaturated fatty acids (5–11 g/100 g dry matter) ( Nowak et al., 2014). Protein digestibility of the larvae was 75% when fed to rats ( Goulet et al., 1978).
The latter authors also found that the insect contained all the essential amino acid in quantities that are necessary for humans ( FAO/WHO/UNU, 1985). (2013) who reported 19% protein on a weight basis. Protein values ranged from 14 to 22% of the fresh weight (edible portion), which is comparable to the data provided by Yi et al. Using the Food Composition Database for Biodiversity (BioFoodComp) of FAO/INFOODS, a number of entries were reviewed by Nowak et al. Both are often used for human consumption. The yellow mealworm and the house cricket are two examples which will now be considered in detail. van Huis, in New Aspects of Meat Quality, 2017 5.5 Examples of Insects Used for Human Consumption If a reduced-fat version of macaroni and cheese is called for, then food composition tables can be referenced and ingredient reductions, substitutions and/or eliminations made.Ī. This is useful in developing new ingredients or foods and creating new recipes that are dependent on specific amounts of nutrients or feature certain nutrients.įor example, it can be seen in Table 1-9 that there are 19 grams of total fat in a 1-cup serving of traditional macaroni and cheese. Nutrition, food science and culinary professionals can use food composition tables to discover the nutrients in foods for comparison and distinction. 4 mg Riboflavin 2 mg Niacin 1 mg Vitamin B6 12 µg Folate <1 mg Vitamin C <1 µg Vitamin B12 -Sel(µg). 15 g Protein 40 g Carbohydrates 1 g Dietary Fiber 19 g Total Fat 8 g Saturated Fat 7 g Monounsaturated Fat 3 g Polyunsaturated Fat 0 g Trans Fat 22 mg Cholesterol 323 mg Calcium 2 mg Iron 42 mg Manganese 263 mg Potassium 800 mg Sodium 2 mg Zinc 327 µg Vitamin A 3 mg Thiamin 7 mg Vitamin E.
