Abstract

Insects are a promising group of animals for value-added biorefining products. Among other insects, the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) Hermetia illucens has gained more attention for extracting chitin and chitosan. Chitin is a natural polysaccharide well-known for its structural integrity and biocompatibility. The outer shell or exoskeletons of insects are made up of chitin, a linear polymer of N-acetylglucosamine that provides mechanical support. The BSF H. illucens serve as a best alternative source for extracting natural biopolymer chitin and chitosan. Despite their potential, no comprehensive review of BSF-derived chitin and chitosan has been published. This review aims to provide an extensive overview of recent updates on the possible applicability of BSF chitin and chitosan for biomedical and industrial applications. Special attention is given to the BSF’s biology, extraction procedures, physicochemical characterization and their biomedical applications such as antioxidant, antibacterial, wound healing properties and their various industrial claims. Furthermore, limitations, challenges, and future recommendations on extracting chitin and chitosan from BSF were also discussed. Overall, this review highlights the potential role of BSF derived chitin and chitosan in various industrial platforms.

从有机废物中提取的黑甲蝇甲壳素和壳聚糖在生物医学和工业应用中的新发现

昆虫是一类很有潜力开发增值生物精炼产品的动物。在其他昆虫中，黑兵蝇（BSF）在提取甲壳素和壳聚糖方面获得了更多关注。甲壳素是一种天然多糖，因其结构完整和生物相容性而闻名。昆虫的外壳或外骨骼由甲壳素构成，甲壳素是一种由 N-乙酰葡糖胺组成的线性聚合物，可提供机械支撑。BSF H. illucens 是提取天然生物聚合物甲壳素和壳聚糖的最佳替代来源。尽管BSF具有潜力，但目前还没有关于BSF衍生甲壳素和壳聚糖的全面综述。本综述旨在广泛综述 BSF 甲壳素和壳聚糖在生物医学和工业应用方面的最新进展。其中特别关注了 BSF 的生物学特性、提取程序、物理化学特征及其生物医学应用，如抗氧化、抗菌、伤口愈合特性及其各种工业用途。此外，还讨论了从 BSF 中提取甲壳素和壳聚糖的局限性、挑战和未来建议。总之，本综述强调了从 BSF 中提取的甲壳素和壳聚糖在各种工业平台中的潜在作用。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering (JECE) serves as a platform for the dissemination of original and innovative research focusing on the advancement of environmentally-friendly, sustainable technologies. JECE emphasizes the transition towards a carbon-neutral circular economy and a self-sufficient bio-based economy. Topics covered include soil, water, wastewater, and air decontamination; pollution monitoring, prevention, and control; advanced analytics, sensors, impact and risk assessment methodologies in environmental chemical engineering; resource recovery (water, nutrients, materials, energy); industrial ecology; valorization of waste streams; waste management (including e-waste); climate-water-energy-food nexus; novel materials for environmental, chemical, and energy applications; sustainability and environmental safety; water digitalization, water data science, and machine learning; process integration and intensification; recent developments in green chemistry for synthesis, catalysis, and energy; and original research on contaminants of emerging concern, persistent chemicals, and priority substances, including microplastics, nanoplastics, nanomaterials, micropollutants, antimicrobial resistance genes, and emerging pathogens (viruses, bacteria, parasites) of environmental significance.
