Black soldier fly protein–based microencapsulation of lemongrass oil improves rumen fermentation efficiency and mitigates methane production in vitro
Microencapsulation of lemongrass oil with BSF protein effectively enhances rumen fermentation efficiency and significantly decreases methane emissions <i>in vitro</i>. This innovative insect-protein delivery system provides a sustainable and climate-friendly feed additive approach, deserving further validation <i>in vivo</i>.
