Analysis of the liver lipidome. Concentrations of the major lipid classes in the liver (A) and lipid species composition within the three most abundant lipid classes in the liver, TG (B), PC (C) and PE (D), of broilers fed diets with either 0 (HI-0), 2.5% (HI-2.5) or 5.0% (HI-5.0) Hermetia illucens (HI) larvae fat for 35 d. Lipid species were grouped according to the number of double bonds (DB). Data are means ± SD, n = 12–14 broilers/group. Abbreviations: CE, cholesteryl ester; Cer, ceramide; DG, diglycerides; FC, free cholesterol; LPC, lysophosphatidylcholine; LPE, lysophosphatidylethanolamine; PC, phosphatidylcholine; PC O, PC-ether; PE, phosphatidylethanolamine; PE O, PE-ether; PG, phosphatidylglycerol; PI, phosphatidylinositol; SM, sphingomyelin; TG, triglycerides
