Nutritional and microbial quality of edible insect powder from plant-based indu...
Andrade, R.; Martins, L.L.; Mourato, M.P.; Lourenço, H.; Ramos, A.C.; Roseiro, C.; Pereira, N.; Costa, G.J.; Lucas, R.; Alvarenga, N.; Reis, J.Edible insect powder, particularly from the cricket Acheta domesticus L., is a promising sustainable alternative to traditional livestock-derived protein. Insects provide high protein content, fibre, and essential minerals, making them suitable for food applications. This study investigates the viability of alternative diets for rearing A. domesticus. Two experimental diets were tested: RI [50% horticultural by...

Stress response of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) to environmental contamination with...
Leitão, I.; Leclerq, C.C.; Ribeiro, D.M.; Renaut, J.; Almeida, A.M.; Martins, L.L.; Mourato, M.P.Pharmaceutical compounds have been found in rivers and treated wastewaters. They often contaminate irrigation waters and consequently accumulate in edible vegetables, causing changes in plants metabolism The main objective of this work is to understand how lettuce plants cope with the contamination from three selected pharmaceuticals using a label free proteomic analysis. A lettuce hydroponic culture, grown for...
Improvement in soil and sorghum health following the application of polyacrylat...
Guiwei, Q.; de Varennes, A.; Martins, L.L.; Mourato, M.P.; Cardoso, A.I.; Mota, A.M.; Pinto, A.P.; Gonçalves, M.L.Contamination of soils with cadmium (Cd) is a serious global issue due to its high mobility and toxicity. We investigated the application of insoluble polyacrylate polymers to improve soil and plant health. Sorghum was grown in a Cd-contaminated sandy soil. Polyacrylate polymers at 0.2% (w/w) were added to half of the soil. Control soil without plants was also included in the experiment. Growth of sorghum was s...
