Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of abalone feed formulation technology, specifically to an abalone feed formulation using seahorse dentator as a raw material. Background Technology
[0002] In the abalone farming industry, feed formulation directly affects the growth rate, disease resistance, and meat quality of abalone. Traditional abalone feed mainly uses animal proteins such as fishmeal and shrimp meal as raw materials. However, with the rapid development of aquaculture, resources such as fishmeal are becoming increasingly scarce and their prices are constantly rising, leading to high farming costs. At the same time, the excessive use of animal protein can easily cause eutrophication of water bodies, resulting in environmental pollution. In addition, the nutrient composition ratio in existing feeds often does not fully consider the different needs of abalone at different growth stages, resulting in low nutrient utilization and prolonged growth cycles. Furthermore, some feeds lack highly effective probiotics and natural functional ingredients, making it difficult to effectively improve the intestinal health and immunity of abalone, making them more susceptible to disease during the farming process. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an abalone feed formula using seahorse tussock as raw material, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an abalone feed formula using seahorse dentator as raw material, comprising the following components by weight percentage: 40-60% dried seahorse dentata powder; 15-30% plant protein source; 5-12% compound mineral additives; 1-5% vitamin premix; 3-8% seaweed polysaccharide binder; 1-15% spirulina powder; the remainder is a compound probiotic preparation.
[0005] Furthermore, the amount of spirulina powder added is adjusted according to the abalone shell length. When the abalone shell length is 2.1-3.5cm, the amount added is 5-8%; when the shell length is 3.5-4.5cm, the amount added is 10-12%.
[0006] Furthermore, the method for preparing the dried seahorse dentata powder includes washing fresh seahorse dentata with seawater, drying it at a low temperature of 50-60℃ until the moisture content is ≤8%, and then pulverizing it into ultrafine particles with a particle size of 100-200 mesh.
[0007] Furthermore, the compound probiotic preparation includes Bacillus subtilis, Pediococcus lactis, and Rhodotorula rubrum.
[0008] Furthermore, the plant protein source is one or more combinations of soybean meal, peanut meal, or corn gluten meal.
[0009] Furthermore, the seaweed polysaccharide binder is sodium alginate.
[0010] Furthermore, the composite mineral additive uses one or more of calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium.
[0011] Furthermore, the vitamin premix includes vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and B vitamins.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: The main ingredient in this invention is seahorse dentate, which is rich in various amino acids, minerals, and bioactive substances. It is low-cost and widely available, replacing some traditional animal protein raw materials, effectively reducing feed costs while decreasing dependence on marine fishery resources and alleviating resource shortage pressures. The amount of spirulina powder added is adjusted according to the different shell length stages of abalone to achieve precise nutrient supply. In the juvenile stage, an appropriate amount of spirulina powder provides abundant protein and β-carotene, promoting rapid growth and pigment deposition in young abalone. In the mid-growth stage, increasing the proportion of spirulina powder meets the higher nutritional needs of abalone, further enhancing growth rate and disease resistance. The dried seahorse dentate powder is produced using seawater washing, low-temperature drying, and ultra-fine grinding processes. Seawater washing removes surface impurities while retaining trace elements related to the abalone's growth environment; low-temperature drying prevents the loss of heat-sensitive nutrients; and ultra-fine grinding facilitates digestion and absorption by abalone, improving feed utilization and thus enhancing abalone growth performance. The compound probiotic preparation contains Bacillus subtilis, Pediococcus lactis, and marine red yeast, which can regulate the balance of abalone's intestinal flora, enhance intestinal digestive function and immunity; the seaweed polysaccharide binder not only plays a binding role, but also has immunomodulatory and anti-stress effects; the compound mineral and vitamin premix comprehensively supplements the nutrients required for abalone growth, and the synergistic effect of multiple components significantly improves the disease resistance and survival rate of abalone, improves meat quality, and contributes to green and environmentally friendly aquaculture.

[0014] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0015] Reference Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides an abalone feed formula using sea purslane as raw material. The formula consists of: 50% dried sea purslane powder, 20% soybean meal, 10% spirulina powder (3.5-4.5cm), 8% compound mineral additive, 3% vitamin premix, 5% sodium alginate, and 4% compound probiotic preparation.
[0016] Preparation process: S1. Collect fresh seahorse teeth and rinse them with flowing seawater 3-5 times to remove surface mud, impurities and attached microorganisms; spread the washed seahorse teeth flat in a drying equipment, set the temperature to 50-60℃, and dry for 6-8 hours until the moisture content drops to ≤8%; after drying, pulverize the seahorse teeth to 100-200 mesh size using an ultra-micro pulverizer for later use. Select one or more of soybean meal, peanut meal or corn gluten powder according to the formula requirements, and grind them to 40-60 mesh to remove lumps and large particles of impurities. Spirulina powder was weighed and packaged separately according to the amount added to abalone of different shell lengths (5-8% for shell length 2.1-3.5cm; 10-12% for shell length 3.5-4.5cm). Bacillus subtilis, Pediococcus lactis and Rhodotorula rubra were mixed in a certain proportion to form a compound probiotic preparation. The preparation was diluted with sterile warm water at 35-40℃ at a ratio of 1:10, 0.5% glucose was added, and the mixture was stirred evenly and then allowed to stand for 1-2 hours to activate. S2. Weigh out the dried seahorse spur powder, plant protein source, compound mineral additive, vitamin premix, seaweed polysaccharide binder (sodium alginate), and spirulina powder of the corresponding shell length stage according to the formula ratio, and put them into a three-dimensional mixer; set the speed to 20-30 rpm and the mixing time to 15-20 minutes to ensure that the components are fully and evenly mixed; slowly spray the activated compound probiotic preparation into the mixture and continue mixing for 5-10 minutes to ensure that the probiotics are evenly distributed; S3. The uniformly mixed material is fed into a twin-screw extruder, with the screw temperature set at 60-70℃, the die orifice diameter at 1.5-2.5mm, and the extrusion speed at 30-40r / min to produce cylindrical pellet feed. The pellet feed is then placed in a fluidized bed dryer, with the drying temperature controlled at 45-55℃ and the drying time at 10-15 minutes, reducing the feed moisture content to 10-12% for easy storage and feeding. The dried feed is then quantitatively packaged in food-grade sealed bags.

[0066] Examples 25-32 were performed using the same method as in Example 1, except that the ratio of dentata, spirulina, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins was changed and optimized, as shown in Table 7.
[0067] Table 7 Comparison of Orthogonal Experiment Data
[0068] Referring to Table 7: the factor with the greatest impact on growth rate is the proportion of seahorse denticle, followed by spirulina; shell hardness is highly correlated with the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio; survival rate is most significantly affected by seahorse denticle. Through orthogonal optimization of 8 examples, the proportion of seahorse denticle was determined to be the most critical factor affecting feed performance, with 50% being the optimal overall performance. The addition of 11% spirulina (for abalone) and a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 2:1 have a synergistic effect, and an increase of more than 30% in vitamin complex can significantly enhance stress resistance.
