Lucia Aquilanti,Sara Santarelli,Gloria Silvestri,Andrea Osimani,Annalisa Petruzzelli,Francesca Clementi +5 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the microbial diversity of fermented meat products can be successfully investigated by this polyphasic approach that is based on the assessment of both the total and the cultivable community diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bread enriched with cricket powder (Acheta domesticus): A technological, microbiological and nutritional evaluation
Andrea Osimani,Vesna Milanović,Federica Cardinali,Andrea Roncolini,Cristiana Garofalo,Francesca Clementi,Marina Pasquini,Massimo Mozzon,Roberta Foligni,Nadia Raffaelli,Federica Zamporlini,Lucia Aquilanti +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that edible insects powder can successfully be included in leavened baked goods to enhance their protein content, proving that edible Insects can constitute a novel source of innovative ingredients to be used in bread making.
Journal ArticleDOI
The microbiota of marketed processed edible insects as revealed by high-throughput sequencing.
Cristiana Garofalo,Andrea Osimani,Vesna Milanović,Manuela Taccari,Federica Cardinali,Lucia Aquilanti,Paola Riolo,Sara Ruschioni,Nunzio Isidoro,Francesca Clementi +9 more
TL;DR: The results of this study contribute to the elucidation of the microbiota associated with edible insects and encourage further studies aimed to evaluate the influence of rearing and processing conditions on that microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insight into the proximate composition and microbial diversity of edible insects marketed in the European Union
Andrea Osimani,Cristiana Garofalo,Vesna Milanović,Manuela Taccari,Federica Cardinali,Lucia Aquilanti,Marina Pasquini,Massimo Mozzon,Nadia Raffaelli,Sara Ruschioni,Paola Riolo,Nunzio Isidoro,Francesca Clementi +12 more
TL;DR: The high diversity in the chemical composition and microbial profile of the marketed edible insects analyzed suggest a role of both the rearing and processing procedures on these variables, and encourage the exploitation of edible insects as a valuable large-scale, animal-based commodity.
