The black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) is a saprophagous insect known for bioconverting organic waste, potentially offering environmental benefits, such as contributing to waste reduction and nutrient cycling. The performance of larvae varies significantly with factors substrate moisture, larval density, and scale of production. Three experiments were conducted using a mix of spent mushroom substrate (SMS) and chicken feed (CF).

Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is a by-product remaining after harvesting mushrooms. We evaluated the effect of substituting chicken feed with 0-100% of Pleurotus eryngii and Lentinula edodes SMS at different stocking densities (200-1000 larvae/box) on development, composition, and substrate reduction of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae. Although the survival rate was not significantly different, feeding pure SMS led to a low growth rate.

Background: Anaphylaxis is a systemic allergic reaction that is potentially life-threatening. Occupational anaphylaxis is an anaphylaxis that occurs in an occupational context. In this position paper, we propose diagnostic criteria for occupational anaphylaxis and provide an overview of the current state of knowledge in terms of prevalence, triggers, prevention, and management.

Associative memory in the Mushroom Body of the fruit fly brain depends on the encoding and processing of odorants in the first three stages of the Early Olfactory System: the Antenna, the Antennal Lobe and the Mushroom Body Calyx. The Kenyon Cells (KCs) of the Calyx provide the Mushroom Body compartments the identity of pure and odorant mixtures encoded as a train of spikes. Characterizing the code underlying the KC spike trains is a major challenge in neuroscience.

Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as a crucial model in neuroscience, aided by extensive resources like the FlyWire whole-brain connectome and a hierarchical annotation of neuron classes and types.
- The study reveals 8,453 annotated cell types, with 4,581 being newly identified, highlighting the complexity of the fly brain and emphasizing the difficulty in reidentifying some hemibrain cell types in FlyWire.
- A new definition of cell type is proposed based on cell similarities across different brains, and the study illustrates findings related to neuron connectivity, structural stability, and a consensus atlas for the fly brain's neuroanatomy, supporting future comparative studies.
