Defatted mealworm protein powder is produced from dried Tenebrio molitor larvae after oil removal, then milled to a fine powder. The defatting step raises the protein concentration and lowers the fat content, making it suitable for high-protein feed formulations.
Applications
- High-protein aquaculture feed
- Pet food and treat formulations
- Poultry and livestock feed
- Protein premixes and compound feed
