Carob (<em>Ceratonia siliqua</em>) as Functional Feed Is Beneficial in Yellow Mealworm (<em>Tenebrio molitor</em>) Rearing: Evidence from Growth, Antioxidant Status and Cellular Responses

Carob (<em>Ceratonia siliqua</em>) as Functional Feed Is Beneficial in Yellow Mealworm (<em>Tenebrio molitor</em>) Rearing: Evidence from Growth, Antioxidant Status and Cellular Responses

In terms of sustainability and circular economy, agricultural by-products may be efficiently reused in insects’ rearing for high-quality protein sources in human diet and animal feeds. The present study aimed to explore whether the utilization of carob pods as feeding substrate may beneficially affe...
