    Taurin v hmyzu jako potravina a krmivo

  • Original language description

    Taurine is an important bioactive compound which certain living organisms cannot synthesize metabolically, thus requiring its dietary supplementation for normal physiological processes. This study analysed taurine content in ten commercially available insect species (Alphitobius diaperinus, Acheta domesticus, Blaberus craniifer, Blatta lateralis, Gryllus assimilis, Hermetia illucens, Musca domestica, Periplaneta americana, Schistocerca gregaria, and Tenebrio molitor) by an electrophoretic method. Levels of total nitrogen substances (Kjeldahl method) and chitin (spectrophotometric method after hydrolysis to glucosamine) present in the insect samples were also determined. Amongst the samples, G. assimilis contained the highest levels of taurine (121.0 ± 10.2 mg.100 g-1 fresh weight; 436 ± 34 mg.100 g-1 dry matter). On the contrary, the lowest taurine level was detected in S. gregaria (5.4 ± 0.6 mg.100 g-1 fresh weight; 15 ± 2 mg/100 g dry matter). There was no significant correlation between the taurine content and the insect order or developmental stage of insects.
