根據 ReThink HK 及 Prestige Hong Kong 的數據顯示，本港零售商（如麵包店及超市）棄置的廚餘中，剩餘麵包高佔約 47%。雖然部分麵包可供捐贈，但透過黑水虻進行「升級再造 (Upcycling)」提供了更徹底的環保方案。我們和城市大學合作的研究指出，相對於傳統蔬菜，麵包是更優質的生物基質。 Roughly 47% of the food waste generated by Hong Kong's bakeries and supermarkets consists of unsold bread. At E Farm Biotech Limited, we have unlocked a way to upcycle this surplus into something much more than just feed. Scientific trials show that BSFL fed on a bread-based diet produces a bio-active oil far superior to those fed on standard organic waste.

實驗證實，以剩餘麵包餵飼黑水虻，能產出品質極佳的蟲油，其中月桂酸（Lauric Acid）含量高達 45%，成分足以媲美優質椰子油。這種天然成分能有效抑制大腸桿菌（E. coli）等有害病菌，發揮天然防禦屏障的作用。我們更可進一步將其轉化為洗手液、潤手霜等美容清潔用品，真正實踐循環經濟，「轉廢為材」。 This oil is naturally fortified with 45% Lauric Acid, giving it antibacterial properties that rival coconut oil and act as a natural shield against harmful bacteria, such as E coli. By processing this nutrient-rich oil into daily essentials like hand cream and handwash, we close the loop on food waste—transforming a local environmental challenge into a sustainable, high-value circular economy.

黑水虻能將廚餘高效轉化為高品質的家禽蛋白質飼料。我們與香港城市大學（CityU）合作的研究已發表於國際權威學術期刊《Journal of Insects as Food and Feed》。研究證實，在雪鳳凰(本地銷售烏雞品種之一)的飼料中添加 15% 黑水虻粉，能帶來顯著的優勢： Our collaborative research with CityU, published in the prestigious Journal of Insects as Food and Feed, demonstrates that incorporating 15% BSFL meal into the diet of SIlkie crossbreed chicken yields significant biological advantages.

• 生長更健壯 | 顯著提高雞隻的「平均日增重」，令肉質更結實。 Sturdier Growth: Significantly increases "Average Daily Gain," resulting in sturdier birds and firmer meat.
• 吸收更高效 | 改善飼料轉換率，讓每一口營養都能轉化為優質蛋白。 Improves the Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), allowing for more efficient nutrient-to-protein absorption.
• 腸道防禦升級 | 顯著降低血清中的 D-乳酸（D-lactate）濃度。D-乳酸水平下降代表雞隻的「腸道屏障功能」獲得改善，身體能更有效抵禦病原體。 Enhanced Gut Defense: Significantly lowers serum D-lactate levels. A reduction in D-lactate indicates a stronger "intestinal barrier," enabling the birds to better resist harmful pathogens.

這項研究為「部隊雞」提供了學術支持。黑水虻不僅是高品質的蛋白質替代品，能大幅降低家禽生產的碳足跡，更含有天然的抗菌肽（AMPs），能從內部自然提升雞隻免疫力。這意味著我們的雞隻能在不使用生長激素的情況下，健康且充滿活力地成長。我們成功培育出具備天然抗病能力的家畜，為您提供更純淨、更安全的本地食材。 This study provides robust scientific backing for our "BSF Chicken." BSFL serves as a high-quality protein alternative that drastically reduces the carbon footprint of poultry production. Furthermore, the larvae naturally contain Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs), which boost the birds' immune systems from the inside out. This ensures our chickens grow naturally and vibrantly without the need for growth stimulants or synthetic chemicals used in industrial farming. By raising livestock that are naturally more resistant to disease, we deliver a purer, safer, and locally produced source of protein for your table.
