Evaluation of the jejunal microbiota and microbial markers in laying hens fed diets with black soldier fly larval fat as a partial or total replacement for soybean oil
In this study, the effects of partial or complete replacement of soybean oil with Hermetia illucens larval (BSF) fat on the jejunal microbial ecosystem and microbial activity in laying hens were evaluated. Three diets were used: a soybean oil-based diet (SO) and two diets in which 50% (BSF50) or 100% (BSF100) of soybea...
