Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of microbial technology, and in particular to a type of Lactobacillus curvatureus YYS-J3 with acrylamide degradation and lead adsorption functions and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] Acrylamide is a byproduct of the Maillard reaction between reducing sugars and aspartic acid during high-temperature processing of carbohydrates. It is commonly found in fried, baked, or roasted foods. Current research indicates that...

[0003] Acrylamide possesses potential carcinogenicity, neurotoxicity, genotoxicity, and reproductive toxicity, and is therefore classified as a Group 2A carcinogen by the World Health Organization. Acrylamide is water-soluble and can be absorbed by the human body through various routes, including the respiratory tract, digestive tract, and skin, affecting human health. Current methods for reducing acrylamide levels primarily involve lowering the sugar content of raw materials and adding organic acids to reduce some acrylamide formation. However, this can affect the sensory quality of food, and many small workshops producing fried foods do not pay attention to the content of these hidden harmful substances. Therefore, it is necessary to find a method for daily maintenance to promptly remove acrylamide from food or the body.

[0004] With the development of modern industry, lead is widely used in automobiles, fuels, paints, coatings, pesticides, batteries, printing, cosmetics, and other fields. This lead directly enters the atmosphere, soil, and water. Lead in the atmosphere is directly absorbed by the human body through the respiratory tract, while lead in the soil and water is accumulated and absorbed by plants and animals, entering the food chain and ultimately harming human health. Because lead is a highly accumulative heavy metal that cannot be degraded, its accumulation in the body can damage the nervous, immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive, cardiovascular, and skeletal systems. Currently, lead poisoning is mainly treated with laxatives and emetics, which have significant side effects and are unsuitable as routine daily detoxification methods. Therefore, it is necessary to find an effective method for removing lead through daily detoxification.

[0005] Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a multifunctional active enzyme system that integrates six functions: scavenging, activation, regeneration, repair, self-healing, and nutrient supply. It has anti-radiation, anti-cancer, antioxidant, and anti-aging effects. SOD can treat a variety of skin diseases such as myocardial infarction, vascular heart disease, edema, psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema, and pruritus, and has important clinical application value. However, due to its complex extraction process, its production is extremely limited, and related products are extremely rare and expensive.

[0006] Probiotics are a type of microorganism that are beneficial to human health. Studies have shown that probiotics can regulate the body's balance through various pathways. However, there are very few probiotics on the market that can remove acrylamide and adsorb heavy metal lead. How to develop a probiotic that can significantly degrade or adsorb acrylamide, adsorb heavy metal lead, and produce SOD enzymes is precisely the problem and challenge that those in the field are dedicated to solving.

[0054] The performance characterization of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 provided by this invention is as follows:

[0055] Example 3: Analysis of the removal effect of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 on acrylamide

[0056] The Lactobacillus curlis YYS-J3 stock solution was inoculated into MRS medium at a rate of 1% (v / v). After anaerobic culture at 37℃ for 24-48 h, the viable bacterial count was determined by flow cytometry to be 5.25*10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL was used to obtain the fermentation broth of *Lactobacillus curlis* YYS-J3. Acrylamide was added to the fermentation broth to a final concentration of 10 mg / L, and the mixture was incubated at 37℃ for 24 h. Using uninoculated MRS medium as a control, 2 mL of the fermentation broth was centrifuged, and the supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 μm microporous membrane and then injected into a brown liquid chromatography vial. Detection was performed using a Waters Alliance e1695 high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system. The detection conditions were: SunFire C18 column (4.6 × 250 mm, 5 μm), injection volume: 5 μL, flow rate: 1 mL / min, mobile phase: acetonitrile:methanol:water = 1:3:96, injection temperature: 30℃, detection wavelength: 210 nm, elution time: 5.3–5.6 min. The control was uninoculated 10 mg / L acrylamide + MRS medium (CK). The acrylamide concentration of each treatment was measured, and the acrylamide removal rate (%) was calculated as (CK - treatment group) / CK * 100%. The removal rate of acrylamide by Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 in fermentation broth for 24 h was 56.72 ± 0.31%.

[0057] Example 4: Removal effect of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 on acrylamide in French fry medium

[0058] Commercially available fried French fries were crushed, and 5g of the sample was added to 10 mL of the above-mentioned *Lactobacillus curvatureii* YYS-J3 fermentation broth and inactivated fermentation broth (fermentation broth boiled for 15 min). Using unfermented MRS medium as a control, acrylamide was added to a final concentration of 5 mg / L. After mixing, the mixture was allowed to stand at 37℃. Samples were taken at 2 h and 4 h, and the supernatant was centrifuged to determine the acrylamide content. The test results are shown in Table 2. Table 2 shows that after 2 h and 4 h of treatment, the removal rate of acrylamide from French fries by the *Lactobacillus curvatureii* YYS-J3 fermentation broth was 70.65% and 70.62%, respectively, while the removal rate by the inactivated *Lactobacillus curvatureii* YYS-J3 fermentation broth was 52.30% and 67.28%, respectively. This indicates that the *Lactobacillus curvatureii* YYS-J3 fermentation broth or its inactivated fermentation product can be used to remove acrylamide from French fries. Furthermore, compared with the effect of treatment in the fermentation broth for 24 hours (see Example 3), the removal rate after treatment in the French fry medium for 2 hours and 4 hours was higher than that in the fermentation broth. Moreover, the removal rate of acrylamide in the inactivated fermentation broth was greater than 50%, indicating that Lactobacillus curvatureis YYS-J3 is beneficial for the removal of acrylamide in foods such as French fries.

[0062] Fermentation broth of *Lactobacillus curlifron* YYS-J3 after 24 hours of fermentation was mixed with lead acetate to a final concentration of approximately 25 mg / L. Using uninoculated MRS medium as a control, *Lactobacillus curlifron* YYS-J3 was inoculated and fermented for 24 hours. The lead content was then determined by centrifugation of the fermentation broth. Fermentation broth of *Lactobacillus curlifron* YYS-J3 after 24-48 hours of fermentation was collected by centrifugation at 4500 rpm for 10 minutes. Cells were added to PBS buffer and counted using flow cytometry. The cell concentration was adjusted to (1.0 ± 0.1) * 102. 9 The concentration of lead acetate was increased to approximately 1 mg / L, using PBS buffer without bacterial cells as a control. The solution was incubated at 37°C, and mixed every 30 minutes. After 4 hours, the solution was centrifuged, and the supernatant was collected. The analysis was performed according to the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry method in GB5009.12-2017, using a PinAAcle900Z atomic absorption spectrometer. Lead adsorption rate (%) = (lead content...) 对照 - Lead content 处理组 ) / Lead content 对照*100%. The results showed that both the fermentation broth and suspension of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 had good adsorption capacity for lead. The adsorption rate of lead by the fermentation broth of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 was 76.56%, and the adsorption rate of lead by Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 cells was 81.21%.

[0063] Table 3. Adsorption rate of lead acetate by Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3

[0064]

[0065] Example 6: Assay for SOD production by Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3

[0066] SOD enzyme detection was performed using a superoxide dismutase (SOD) assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng). Specifically, the supernatant of the *Lactobacillus curvatureis* YYS-J3 fermentation broth was obtained by centrifugation. The supernatant was mixed with water at a ratio of 2:3 (v / v), and the reaction system was prepared according to the kit instructions (Table 4). The mixture was thoroughly homogenized and incubated at 37°C for 20 minutes. The OD value was read at 450 nm using a microplate reader. One unit of SOD activity (U) was defined as the amount of enzyme corresponding to a 50% SOD inhibition rate in the reaction system. The formula for calculating SOD activity is as follows:

[0069] Among them, A 对照 A represents the OD value of the control group. 对照空白 A represents the OD value of the control group. 测定 A represents the OD value of the test group. 测定空白 This indicates the OD value of the blank control group.

[0070] Table 4. Reagent Kit Reaction System Operation Table

[0071]

[0072] The test results showed that the SOD enzyme activity in the fermentation supernatant of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 was 51.33±0.95 U / mL, indicating that Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 has a good SOD enzyme production capacity.

[0073] Example 7: Autoagglutination rate and other agglutination rate test of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3

[0074] Fermentation broths of *Lactobacillus curlis* YYS-J3, *Streptococcus mutans*, and *Escherichia coli* were prepared separately. The YYS-J3 fermentation broth was prepared by inoculating *YYS-J3* stock solution at 1% (v / v) onto MRS medium and anaerobic culture for 48 h. The *Streptococcus mutans* fermentation broth was prepared by inoculating *Streptococcus mutans* (…) onto… Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175) was inoculated into brain and heart extract medium at a rate of 1% (v / v) and fermented at 37°C and 150 rpm for 24 h. The E. coli fermentation broth was prepared by inoculating E. coli (… Escherichia coli ATCC35150 was inoculated into LB medium at a rate of 1% (v / v) and fermented at 37℃ and 150 rpm for 24 h. 2 mL or more of each bacterial fermentation broth was taken separately and centrifuged at 12000 rpm and 4℃ for 5 min to collect the bacterial sludge. The sludge was washed twice with sterile phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at pH 7.0 (i.e., PBS was added to the sludge, the mixture was shaken to mix thoroughly, and then centrifuged at 12000 rpm and 4℃ for 5 min to collect the sludge). The bacterial suspension was adjusted to an absorbance of 0.6 ± 0.1 (A0) at 600 nm using sterile PBS. The bacterial suspensions of each bacterium were then calculated as A. O .

[0075] Self-agglutination rate test: The above-mentioned Lactobacillus curvatureus YYS-J3A0 bacterial suspension was allowed to stand for different time periods (2h, 4h, 24h) and the absorbance value A was measured. X .

[0076] Self-agglutination rate (%) = (1-A) x / A0)×100%;

[0077] Where x is 2, 4, or 24; A2 represents the absorbance value measured after the bacterial suspension has stood for 2 hours; A4 represents the absorbance value measured after the bacterial suspension has stood for 4 hours; and A24 represents the absorbance value measured after the bacterial suspension has stood for 24 hours. The same applies below.

[0078] Agglutination rate test: Take the above-mentioned YYS-J3 bacterial suspension, Streptococcus mutans bacterial suspension, and Escherichia coli suspension A respectively. O Take 1 ml of YYS-J3 bacterial suspension and 1 ml of Streptococcus mutans bacterial suspension to obtain the first mixed bacterial suspension, take 1 ml of YYS-J3 bacterial suspension and 1 ml of Escherichia coli suspension to obtain the second mixed bacterial suspension, and after standing for different time periods (2h, 4h, 24h), measure the absorbance A of the first mixed bacterial suspension and the second mixed bacterial suspension respectively.

[0079] Its aggregation rate (%) = (1-A) x / A0)×100%;

[0080] Where x is 2, 4, or 24.

[0084] Example 8: Survival analysis of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 in a simulated artificial gastric juice environment.

[0085] (1) The survival rate test process was as follows: YYS-J3 fermentation broth of *Lactobacillus curvatureensis* fermented for 24 h was collected by centrifugation at 12000 r / min for 5 min, and the same volume of 0.85% (w / v) physiological saline was added and mixed to obtain a bacterial suspension. Artificial gastric fluid (125 mM NaCl, 7 mM KCl, 45 mM NaHCO3 and 3 g / L pepsin) was prepared, and the pH was adjusted to 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0. The suspension was then filtered through a 0.22 μM microporous membrane for later use. 1 mL of the bacterial suspension was added to 9 mL of artificial gastric fluid at different pH values ​​and incubated at 37℃ for x (1, 2, 3, 5) h. 0.9 mL of the treated sample was taken each time, and 0.1 mL of 20 ug / mL propidium iodide (PI) was added. After staining at 37℃ for 10 min, 0.1 mL of the treated sample was added to 0.9 mL of the PI solution. In mL of ultrapure water, the total bacterial count P1 and the number of dead bacteria P2 were detected by flow cytometry, and the survival rate / % at different time periods was calculated. The survival rate in the bacterial suspension without artificial gastric juice treatment was used as a 100% control to calculate the gastrointestinal tolerance of each treatment.

[0086] The formula for calculating bacterial survival rate at different treatment times is as follows:

[0087] Survival rate (%) = [(P1) 处理组 -P2 处理组 ) / P1 处理组 ] / [(P1 对照 -P2 对照 ) / P1 对照 ];

[0088] Among them, P1处理组 The total number of bacterial particles in the treatment group, P2 处理组 This refers to the number of dead bacterial particles in the treatment group, P1 对照 This refers to the total number of bacterial particles in the control group, P2. 对照 This refers to the number of dead bacterial particles in the control group.

[0089] (2) The survival rate of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 in different gastric fluid environments is shown in Table 6. According to the data, the following can be seen:

[0090] The survival rate of *Lactobacillus curlifi* YYS-J3 was 53.13% after 1 hour of treatment in a simulated gastric fluid environment with a pH of 2.0. The survival rate remained stable between 17.26% and 19.88% after 2-5 hours of treatment. In a simulated gastric fluid environment with a pH of 2.5, the survival rate was 99.84%-66.99% after 1-5 hours of treatment. In a simulated gastric fluid environment with a pH of 3.0, the survival rate was greater than 100%. These results indicate that *Lactobacillus curlifi* YYS-J3 exhibits good tolerance in simulated gastric fluid environments and is unaffected by a pH of 3.0.

[0092]

[0093] Example 9: Survival analysis of Lactobacillus curvatureis YYS-J3 in a simulated artificial pancreatic juice environment.

[0094] (1) Take the fermentation broth of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 fermented for 24 h, centrifuge at 12000 r / min for 5 min to collect the bacterial cells, add the same volume of 0.85% (w / v) physiological saline and mix well to prepare a bacterial suspension for later use; prepare protein pancreatic juice [0.1% (w / v) pancreatin, 0.15% (w / v) bovine bile], adjust the pH value to 7.5 and 8.0 respectively, filter through a 0.22 μM microporous membrane for later use, take 1 mL of the above bacterial suspension in 9 mL of protein pancreatic juice with different pH values, and incubate at 37℃. Take samples after 3 h and 6 h of treatment, take 0.9 mL of the treated sample each time, add 0.1 mL of PI dilution solution, stain at 37℃ for 10 min, and detect the total number of bacteria P1 and the number of dead bacteria P2 by flow cytometry, and calculate the survival rate at different time periods. The survival rate of bacteria is calculated with the survival number of untreated bacterial suspension as a control.

[0095] The formula for calculating bacterial survival rate is:

[0096] Survival rate (%) = [(P1) 处理组 -P2处理组 ) / P1 处理组 ] / [(P1 对照 -P2 对照 ) / P1 对照 ];

[0097] Among them, P1 处理组 This refers to the total number of bacterial particles in the treatment group, P2 处理组 This refers to the number of dead bacterial particles in the treatment group, P1 对照 This refers to the total number of bacterial particles in the control group, P2. 对照 This refers to the number of dead bacterial particles in the control group. The bacterial survival rate of *Lactobacillus curvatureis* YYS-J3 is shown in Table 7. Based on the data, we can see that:

[0098] The survival rates of Lactobacillus curvature YYS-J3 after treatment in pancreatic juice at pH 7.5 for 3 h and 6 h were 99.09% and 98.29%, respectively, while the survival rates in pancreatic juice at pH 8.0 were 101.10% and 101.05%, respectively, indicating that it is not affected by pancreatic juice.
