AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is about a specific type of bacteria (Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7) that can help promote growth and development in humans, particularly neonates, infants, young children, and growing children. It does this by digesting and supplying specific types of human milk oligosaccharides that are difficult to produce in large amounts and are not digested by human enzymes. This bacteria also helps in the production of vitamins, inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria in the gut, promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria, and regulates the immune system. The invention also provides a nutraceutical composition that can promote growth and development, alleviate growth retardation, and support brain development in humans.

Problems solved by technology

However, the use of growth hormones is very costly and may cause adverse effects, including various symptoms such as pruritus of injection sites, seizures, lipoatrophy, hypertension, glucose intolerance, pancreatitis, systemic allergic responses, growth hormone antibody-positive responses, cancer development, and gynaecomastia in males.
However, these foods have growth promotion effects that fall short of expectations.

Isolation and Identification of Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 Strain

[0039]1-1: Selection of Novel Strain

[0040]1 g of human feces was serially diluted in sterile anaerobic water, and 1 ml of each of the dilutions was poured on glucose blood liver (BL. BD. USA) solid medium and cultured for 3 days under anaerobic conditions. The produced colonies were selected using a Bifidobacterium selective medium obtained by adding BCP (Bromocresol purple, 0.17 g / L) to BL, and then cultured for 3 days under the same conditions. Bifidobacterium colonies, the color around which changed to yellow, were selected, and then biochemical and molecular biological identification of the selected colonies was performed. Thereafter, one strain having the best physical properties was selected.

Analysis of Genes of Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 Strain

[0072]Genome sequencing of the Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 strain (KCTC 12200BP) was performed using a PacBio RS II System (DNA Link, Republic of Korea). For the genome of the strain, a 10-kb library was constructed, and genome sequencing was performed using one of SMRT cells with C2-P4 chemistry. By the genome sequencing, a sequence having a length of 337,655,282 bp was obtained. De novo assembly was performed using SMRTpipe HGAP, and scaffolding and gap filling were performed using SMRTpipe AHA. Prediction of structural genes was performed using Glimmer3, and gene annotation was performed by AutoFACT (Koski et al. 2005) using the results obtained by BLASTP for Pfam, Uniref100, KEGG, COG and GenBank NR databases. Transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA were performed using tRNAscan-SE (Lowe and Eddy 1997) and RNAmmer (Lagesen et al. 2007), respectively. The functional classification of genes by Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COGs...

Growth Promoting Effect of Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 Strain

[0083]The following Example demonstrates the characteristics and growth promoting effect of the strain of the present invention. All the experimental results obtained in the Example were expressed as mean±SD, and statistical processing of the experimental results was performed using GraphPad Prism™ 6.0. In addition, the significance of difference in means between the test groups was determined by one-way ANOVA, and then the Post Hoc test was performed using Tukey's multiple range test.

[0084]3-1: Preparation of Culture of Strain of the Present Invention and Composition Containing the Same

[0085]The Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 strain (KCTC 12200BP) was cultured in BL broth (BD Diagnostics, Sparks, MD) at 37° C. for 24 hours, and diluted to 1011 CFU / ml in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, 10 mM sodium phosphate, 130 mM sodium chloride, pH 7.4). The dilution was sonicated and centrifuged to separate the supernatant, followe...

Abstract

The present invention a Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 Bifidobacterium, which has an excellent growth promoting effect and was internationally deposited with the Korean Collection for Type Culture (KCTC) of the Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology under accession number KCTC 12200BP. The strain of the present invention has a beneficial effect of promoting growth by promoting the digestion of human milk oligosaccharides to enhance immunity together with physical strength.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates generally to a Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 strain for promotion of growth and a nutraceutical composition for promotion of growth containing the same, and more particularly to a Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 strain capable of promoting the growth of neonates, infants, young children, and growing children by promoting the digestion of human milk and synthesizing vitamins, and to a nutraceutical composition for promotion of growth, which contains the Bifidobacterium longum CBT BG7 strain.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Human growth occurs in a period up to adolescence, in which most growth plates are still open. Growth can be medically defined as a change in size accompanying maturation, and particularly, the term “growth of children” is intended to encompass not only an increase in height, but also increases in the size and function of each organ of the body.[0003]It is generally recognized that human growth is most influenced by genetic fac...
