Abstract This study compared the physicochemical properties of edible insect oils from
silkworm (Bombyx mori) pupa (SP), sago palm weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus)
larva (PW), and bamboo caterpillar (Omphisa fuscidentalis; BC) to oils from chicken
skin (CK), beef back fat (BF), pork back fat (PF), salmon belly (SB), sea bass belly (BB),
coconut (C), and peanut (P). The fatty acid profiles and thermal behaviors (crystallization
and melting) of the extracted oils were evaluated. PW and BC oils had more saturated
fatty acids (SFAs) than CK, PF, SB, BB, and P oils. SP oil had equivalent SFA content to
CK and BB oils. Insect oils exhibited similar monounsaturated fatty acid concentrations
in all samples, except C oils. PW and BC oils exhibited a higher content of palmitoleic
acid than the other oils. SP oils contained polyunsaturated fatty acids similar to those in
SB and BB oils, which were higher than those in PW, BC, CK, BF, and PF oils. SP oil
also exhibited the highest concentration of α-linolenic acid (C18:3 n-3). Arachidonic acid
(0.01–0.02 g/100 g) in all insect oils was lower level compared to CK, BF, PF, SB, and
BB oils. SP oil (0.03 g/100 g) exhibited a slightly higher level of eicosapentaenoic acid
compared to PW (0.01 g/100 g) and BC (0.01 g/100 g) oils. The insect oils were liquid at
ambient temperature, solid below –15℃, and required less energy (∆Hm-max) for melting
than other samples. This study indicated that insects, particularly SP, could serve as an
alternative source of fat to meet its growing demand.
