Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of micro-ecological preparations, and particularly relates to a compound micro-ecological preparation for aquatic products and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fish meal has been an important protein source in aquatic feed for a long time due to its rich nutrition, balanced amino acid ratio, good palatability, rich vitamins and minerals, and easy digestion and absorption. In recent years, with the increase of aquaculture species and the expansion of aquaculture scale, and the rapid development of industrialized aquaculture, the demand for fish meal has increased. Under this background, people are constantly looking for other protein ingredients to reduce the demand for fish meal in feed in order to achieve partial or complete replacement of fish meal.

[0003] Plant protein sources are considered to be ideal protein sources for replacing fish meal due to their low price, stable yield, and wide sources. Although plant protein sources have been widely used in aquatic feed and their safety has been fully proven, their large-scale application in feed is limited due to their poor palatability, unbalanced amino acid ratio, low available phosphorus content, and the presence of various anti-nutritional factors. Concentrated cottonseed protein is of great concern due to its high-quality protein, but its use in feed is limited due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors such as gossypol, phytic acid, and polysaccharides. Therefore, high-level plant protein replacement of fish meal will inevitably affect the absorption and utilization of nutrients by fish and even directly harm the health of aquatic animals, causing negative effects on growth, antioxidant capacity, immunity, and intestinal flora structure.

[0004] To further alleviate the negative effects of high-level plant protein replacement of fish meal on farmed animals, researchers have adopted many strategies. One notable method is to add green additives (micro-ecological preparations) to feed. Probiotics as feed additives can bring benefits to farmed animals in many aspects, including improving digestive system health, enhancing the immune system, promoting nutrient absorption, reducing stress response, and improving feed quality. In addition, as living microorganisms, probiotics can regulate the intestinal flora of farmed animals, maintain the balance and stability of the intestinal microbiota through competitive exclusion, production of antibacterial substances, regulation of intestinal environment, enhancement of immune regulation, and promotion of nutrient metabolism. Currently, many studies have added probiotics to feed with high-level plant protein replacement of fish meal to alleviate the negative effects of plant protein on farmed animals.

[0005] Currently, the addition of probiotics in feed is mainly single-strain, which only has specific efficacy and limited inhibitory effect on certain harmful bacteria. In addition, single-strain may be inhibited by the intestinal environment and other microorganisms of farmed animals in some cases, resulting in limited survival and reproduction. SUMMARY

[0006] In view of the above prior art, the present application provides a compound micro-ecological preparation for aquatic products and a preparation method and application thereof, so as to solve the technical problems of limited efficacy of the existing micro-ecological preparation and difficulty in growth and reproduction of single bacterial species.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is to provide a compound micro-ecological preparation, which comprises Clostridium butyricum, Bacillus licheniformis, Enterococcus faecalis and Lactobacillus plantarum.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: Clostridium butyricum, Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus licheniformis and Lactobacillus plantarum are probiotics from different species, which have different flora components and metabolic functions. Clostridium butyricum is a strict anaerobic gram-positive bacterium with good tolerance, which can produce short-chain fatty acids, digestive enzymes and vitamins and other beneficial substances; Bacillus licheniformis can promote the growth and reproduction of beneficial bacteria and maintain the balance of intestinal flora, which helps to improve the intestinal micro-ecological environment through competitive exclusion of harmful bacteria, production of beneficial metabolites and other ways; Enterococcus faecalis and Lactobacillus plantarum, as representatives of lactic acid bacteria, have many important functions such as regulating intestinal micro-ecological balance, promoting food fermentation, enhancing immunity, antibacterial and antioxidant effects.

[0009] Bacillus licheniformis and Enterococcus faecalis, as aerobic bacteria, have a unique mechanism of action in biological oxygen deprivation, which can create a low-oxygen environment by consuming oxygen, thereby inhibiting pathogenic bacteria that need oxygen to grow and reproduce, promoting the growth of Clostridium butyricum and Lactobacillus plantarum, two anaerobic bacteria, and improving their survival rate in the intestine, thereby playing a role in the intestine; Clostridium butyricum and Enterococcus faecalis produce butyric acid, which is beneficial to intestinal health and can maintain the integrity of intestinal mucosa and anti-inflammatory capacity, while Bacillus licheniformis and Lactobacillus plantarum can promote the production of short-chain fatty acids, effectively increase the yield of butyric acid and improve the intestinal environment; the compound preparation prepared by combining Clostridium butyricum, Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus licheniformis and Lactobacillus plantarum comprehensively utilizes the characteristics of different species of probiotics and presents a complementary effect between multiple probiotic species, thereby improving the overall effect and making it superior to single probiotic preparation, achieving more comprehensive intestinal micro-ecological regulation and promoting overall health.

[0010] Clostridium butyricum, Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus licheniformis and Lactobacillus plantarum maintain the intestinal health of aquatic animals through metabolic complementation, immune regulation, synergistic antibacterial and environmental regulation mechanisms. In addition, they further enhance their comprehensive probiotic effect through signal molecule interaction, intestinal barrier function promotion and symbiotic relationship. Clostridium butyricum and Lactobacillus plantarum produce butyric acid and lactic acid respectively, reduce the pH value of the intestinal tract, inhibit harmful bacteria, and provide a favorable growth environment for each other and other probiotics such as Enterococcus faecalis and Bacillus licheniformis. The nutrients generated by the digestive enzymes secreted by Bacillus licheniformis further promote the growth and metabolism of other probiotics. Enterococcus faecalis and Lactobacillus plantarum activate the intestinal immune system, enhance the host's resistance to pathogenic bacteria, indirectly protect other probiotics, and maintain the balance of intestinal microecology. The antibacterial substances (such as antibacterial peptides and lipopeptide antibiotics) produced by the four probiotics work together to form a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect, effectively inhibit pathogenic bacteria, and promote the growth and colonization of beneficial bacteria.

[0011] The application further discloses a preparation method of the compound microecological preparation.

[0127] 2. Intestinal digestive enzyme activity detection

[0128] The intestinal tract of 4 shrimps randomly selected from each barrel was used for digestive enzyme detection. The digestive enzymes included trypsin, amylase and lipase, which were all detected by commercial kits.

[0129] The intestinal digestive enzyme activities of different treatment groups are shown in ​ As can be seen from the figure, the trypsin and amylase activities of the 0.25% and 0.50% groups were significantly higher than those of the other two groups, and the activity of the 0.50% group was the highest (P<0.05); the lipase activity was the lowest in the CPC group, and the activity of the 0.50% group was the highest (P<0.05); the three digestive enzyme activities of the CB 0.50% group were significantly lower than those of the 0.50% group (P<0.05), the trypsin activity was significantly higher than that of the FM and CPC groups, and the lipase activity was significantly higher than that of the CPC group (P<0.05).

[0130] 3. Intestinal microbiota analysis

[0131] The intestinal tract of 6 shrimps randomly selected from each barrel was stored at -80°C for intestinal microbiota analysis.

[0132] Statistical analysis of alpha diversity index is shown in Table 2 ​ As can be seen from the figure, there is no significant difference in the alpha diversity index of each group; ​ The results of principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) are shown in Figure 2, and it can be seen from the figure that there is no overlap between the samples in the 0.25%, 0.50% and CB 0.50% groups, indicating that the microbial community structure is different among the three groups.

[0133] The top 15 bacteria with high relative abundance at the phylum level are shown in Table 3 ​ As can be seen from the figure, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the 0.25%, 0.50% and CB 0.50% groups is significantly increased (P<0.05), and the relative abundance of Verrucomicrobia in the 0.25% group is significantly the highest (P<0.05).

[0134] The top 15 bacteria with high relative abundance at the genus level are shown in Table 4 ​ As can be seen from the figure, the relative abundance of Vibrio, Marinobacter and Pir4 lineage in the 0.50% group is significantly reduced (P<0.05).

[0135] The top 15 bacteria with high relative abundance at the species level are shown in Table 5 ​ As can be seen from the figure, the relative abundance of Ralstonia eurydice and Acinetobacter schindleri in the 0.50% group is significantly increased (P<0.05); it is worth noting that the relative abundance of Clostridium butyricum in the 0.25% and 0.50% groups is significantly increased, and the highest in the 0.50% group (P<0.05), while the CB 0.50% group basically does not detect the existence of Clostridium butyricum, because Enterococcus faecalis and Bacillus licheniformis in the complex microecological preparation are aerobic bacteria that can create a low-oxygen environment by consuming oxygen, promoting the growth and reproduction of Clostridium butyricum.

[0136] LEfSe analysis further shows the bacterial categories with significant differences in each group, as shown in Figure 3 ​ As can be seen from the figure, the indicator species in the 0.50% group are mostly beneficial bacteria, such as Firmicutes, Clostridia and Lactobacillus.

[0137] In summary, after replacing fish meal with concentrated cottonseed protein, the addition of complex microecological preparation and Clostridium butyricum microecological preparation can promote the immune, antioxidant and digestive enzyme indicators of Litopenaeus vannamei, and increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the intestine. By further comparing the complex microecological preparation and Clostridium butyricum microecological preparation, it is found that the effect of the complex microecological preparation is better, and the effect of adding 0.50% is the best, and through 16S determination, it is found that the content of Clostridium butyricum in the complex microecological preparation is significantly increased.

[0138] Although the specific embodiments of the present application have been described in detail, it should be understood that the present patent is not limited to the details of the foregoing embodiments. Various modifications and changes can be made to the described embodiments without departing from the scope of the present patent.
