Black Soldier fly rearing

These days, I try to rear Black Soldier Fly. But It is not going well. I think the one of the reason is I collected BSF in winter season. This time I collect BSF pupae to start rearing. Now many of them did not emergence. It is said temperature, humidity and light intensity is important to BSF rearing. I try to know what is lack in my rearing. BSF pupae have habit to go above. Almost they reach dry place finally. So, I think humidity have not relationship with emergence. I will try something to understand BSF and keep studying.


最近、アメリカミズアブの飼育をしているのですが冬場のものミズアブを使用したからか、いまいち状況の進展がない現状です。今回はアメリカミズアブの蛹を集めて飼育を始めましたがほとんどが成虫にならずに蛹のままです。アメリカミズアブは温度、湿度、光が飼育で重要と言われています。現状で足りないものはどれなのか試行錯誤しています。アメリカミズアブの蛹は幼虫の時に暮らしていた場所より高いところに向かう習性があります。そして大体は湿気のない場所に移動します。そのため、今回は湿度があまりかかわっていないのではないかと思いますが、今後いろいろ試してみたいと思います。

HAZARD VS. RISK-BASED APPROACHES TO PROTECTING HEALTH (ERNEST)

                                               HAZARD VS. RISK-BASED APPROACHES TO PROTECTING                             HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT FROM PESTICIDES                                                                      April 2021     What’s the difference between a hazard and risk-based approach? These two approaches are often presented as opposing. However, this is a misrepresentation of risk management. ‘Hazard’ is the potential for a chemical (in this case a pesticide) to cause harm to human health or the environment; Risk , on the other hand , is the probability that the harmful outcome happens. Hazard cannot be separated from risk; it is an integral part of it. Pesticide risk management focuses on reducing the probability (and hence frequency), that people or the  environment will be exposed to pesticides. The hazard-based approach to pesticide regulation is founded on the principle that if an active substance possesses certain hazardous character

Locust as a source of food and feed (Rahima)

I came across a pack of roasted locusts at the store the other day and decided to check their nutritional value and study a bit more about them. Locusts are a type of insect from the family Acrididae . They are known to swarm in huge numbers and can travel great distances, causing considerable damage to crops. However, in many African, Middle Eastern, and Asian countries, locusts are considered a delicacy and eaten in abundance. Locusts are an excellent source of protein and contain a variety of fatty acids and minerals. Although not considered palatable by most Americans and Europeans, locusts are an important food source in many other countries.   According to the book "Insects" by Steve Parker, species of locusts vary in protein content from about 50 percent of dry weight to almost 60 percent, making them denser in protein than cows . Researchers have also noted that the cholesterol content in locusts is high, about 286 milligrams per 100 grams, which is higher than th

Full vaccination（Sagae）

イメージ
We some of the lab members had second vaccination at university. It was so hard situation for me because of side effects. I had heard some news that the side effects of the second vaccine are more serious. It was TRUE. The night after the vaccine, started to increase my body temperature. At midnight temperature already reached 38.5 ℃. And also my bone has pain and "Moderna arm". I could only lay on the bed the whole day by agony. My fever continues till next midnight. I thought my fever had gone down, but then I started to have terrible headaches. Again I spent the time on the bed the whole day. Finally, I recovered fully after 60 hours of vaccination. It was the worst experience in 2021 at least. I wish our painfulness contributes to making the situation better. 大学で二回目のワクチン接種を受けました。結論から言うと、副反応が本当きつかったです。二回目は一回目より副反応がきついと聞いていましたが、その通りです。接種日の夜から熱が上がり始めて、夜中には38.5℃に達しました。きつすぎてベッドに横になる事しかできません。全身の関節は痛むし、モデルナアームも発症しています。次の夜中は明朝まで高熱は続きました。熱が下がったと思ったら次はひどい頭痛です。またベットから動けず一日を過ごします。最終的
