Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of functional feed additives, and in particular relates to a compound feed additive with vomitoxin attenuation and detoxification function, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a type B trichothecenes toxin. It is also called vomitoxin because it has the property of causing vomiting in animals. DON is mainly produced by microorganisms such as Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium nivalis. It is widely present in feed and feed raw materials, and seriously threatens the health of livestock and poultry. DON has stable physical and chemical properties, is resistant to high temperature and weak acid, and is stable in the processing and storage of feed and food. It is not easy to be degraded, and it is difficult to eliminate its toxicity by heating or ultraviolet radiation. When DON binds to the ribosome, it will induce ribosome toxicity stress, leading to abnormal cell protein synthesis. In addition, this binding will also activate a variety of protein kinases, causing cell signal transduction disorders, resulting in non-programmed cell death. As a pollutant widely present in different food crops, relevant departments have set restrictions on the maximum allowable content of DON in feed and raw materials.
[0003] Excessive intake of DON in crops and their by-products can cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, gastroenteritis and leaky intestines in animals. In order to reduce the potential harm of DON to livestock and poultry production, the current main methods of comprehensive reduction and control are adsorbent adsorption and biodegradation. In recent years, yeast cell walls and plant fibers (such as biological activated carbon) have received extensive attention from researchers. The yeast cell wall is mainly composed of mannooligosaccharide layer, glucan layer and protein layer. These components together give it a high affinity with a variety of mycotoxins, so that the adsorbed mycotoxins are fixed on the cell wall, lose their pathogenicity, and are excreted from the body with intestinal peristalsis. This biological adsorption method is environmentally friendly and sustainable, and has certain significance for reducing the content of highly hydrophobic mycotoxins (such as aflatoxin) in feed. Although biological adsorbents have many advantages, they still have deficiencies in the adsorption performance and stability of polyhydroxy mycotoxins (such as DON). The biological / physical adsorption method they provide is difficult to ensure that DON does not undergo secondary dissociation in the intestine. In comparison, additive products that have both DON biological / physical adsorption, multi-hydroxyl bond coupling and detoxification functions are more adaptable to the complex intestinal environment of livestock and poultry, and can effectively compensate for the cytotoxicity problem caused by DON desorption in the intestine. According to surveys, there are not many products on the market that can be effectively applied to multiple adsorption and detoxification of DON, and most of them have problems such as unstable effects and incomplete functions. Therefore, the feed additive industry urgently needs to develop compound, low-cost DON attenuation and detoxification preparations to meet actual application needs. Summary of the invention

[0082] 2 Results and analysis
[0083] 2.1 Study on the adsorption effect of adsorbent on DON under different pH conditions
[0084] The adsorption rates of DON by raw eggshell powder (E) and modified eggshell powder 500-CSAE, 700-CSAE, 500-CSPE and 700-CSPE prepared from comparative examples 1 to 4 under different pH conditions are shown in Table 1. Figure 2 Under the conditions of artificial gastric juice and artificial intestinal juice at pH=2.0 and pH=7.0, the modified eggshell powder had a higher DON adsorption effect than the eggshell powder, and the adsorption rate of DON by 500-CSAE and 500-CSPE was higher than that of 700-CSAE and 700-CSPE.
[0085] 2.2 Study on the adsorption effect of compound feed additives on DON under different acid and alkaline conditions
[0086] The adsorption rates of DON by the compound feed additives CE-1 to CE-3 prepared in Examples 1 to 3 and the commercial adsorbent (Utoxin, Shenlite Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) at different pH values are shown in Table 1. Figure 3 The results showed that under the conditions of artificial gastric juice and artificial intestinal juice at pH = 2.0 and pH = 7.0, all compound feed additives had significantly improved DON adsorption effects compared with modified eggshell powder, and the effects had reached the level of commercial adsorbents, with the adsorption efficiency of DON reaching more than 95%.
[0087] Coconut shell biochar, yeast cell wall and honeysuckle extract are used as compound materials and compounded with 500-CSAE with the best adsorption performance. Although plant biochar has a good adsorption effect on DON, the principle of broad-spectrum adsorption makes it also have a certain adsorption effect on most trace elements. Therefore, the coconut shell biochar with the smallest proportion is preferably used for the preparation and application of compound feed additives. The feed additives prepared by this compounding method also have an adsorption effect of more than 95% on DON.

Each experimental group contained 8 replicates, and each group repeated 1 weaned piglet. The overall experimental period was 14 days. The content of DON in the diet of each experimental group was: negative control group (0.06 mg / kg DON), negative control + compound feed additive group (0.06 mg / kg DON), DON challenge group (1.09 mg / kg DON) and DON challenge + compound feed additive group (1.09 mg / kg DON). The amount of EC-1 added was 0.2% of the diet mass. The piglets were placed in cages and raised individually. The feeding and health conditions of the piglets during the feeding period were recorded.

[0106]
[0107]
[0108] Note: The nutritional levels in this feed are actual measured values.
[0109] 1.3 Slaughter experiment
[0110] After the feeding experiment, 32 piglets were slaughtered after fasting for 12 h, and were marked and weighed before slaughter.
[0111] 1.4 Experimental records and sample collection
[0112] During the experiment, the daily feed consumption of the piglets was recorded in detail, and the weights were recorded at 08:00 on the 0th and 14th days of the experiment.
[0113] Feces were collected on the 0th, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th and 15th days of the experiment, placed in centrifuge tubes, and stored in a -20°C refrigerator until testing.
[0114] After weighing on the 14th day of the experiment, all piglets were subjected to blood sampling from the anterior vena cava on the 14th day of the experiment. The collected blood samples were left to stand to allow the serum to precipitate naturally. The centrifuge was centrifuged at 3000rpm for 10min to better separate the serum. The separated supernatant was packaged and stored in a refrigerator at -20℃ for subsequent testing.
[0115] 1.5 Measurement indicators and methods
[0116] 1.5.1 Intestinal morphology
[0117] The jejunal and ileal segments fixed for 24 hours were removed from the 4% paraformaldehyde and replaced with new 4% paraformaldehyde. The intestinal tissue was rinsed with tap water for 12 hours to wash off the excess paraformaldehyde on the surface of the sample. Dehydrated with ethanol according to the concentration gradient from low to high, and then made transparent with xylene. The transparent sample was embedded in paraffin, and the tissue was sliced into 3-5 μm thick slices, and then stained with hematoxylin-eosin. Observed under a fluorescence microscope, at least 8 complete villi were selected from each sample to measure the villus height and crypt depth, and the villus-crypt ratio was calculated.
[0118] 1.5.2 Serum indicators
[0119] The levels of MPO and DAO in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
[0120] 1.5.3 Relative expression of intestinal tight junction protein mRNA
[0121] In order to study the gene expression in intestinal tissue, an appropriate amount of samples were first cut and ground in a liquid nitrogen mortar, and then RNA was extracted from the intestinal samples using Trizo1 reagent. The concentration of the extracted RNA was accurately measured and quantified using an ultra-micro spectrophotometer. The RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA using a reverse transcription kit as a template for subsequent PCR reactions. The mRNA expression levels of multiple tight junction protein-related genes (including ZO-1, Occludin, Claudin-1, Claudin-3, and Claudin-4) in the jejunum were determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.
[0122] 1.5.4 Blood indicators
[0123] Serum IgA, IgG and IgM were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Catalase (CAT), malondialdehyde (MDA), total superoxide dismutase (SOD), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and glutathione (GSH) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent turbidimetry. Inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent turbidimetry.
[0124] 1.5.5 Intestinal immunohistochemistry
[0125] For subsequent observation and analysis, paraffin sections were processed. The sections were baked at 60°C for 30 minutes to fix the sections. The sections were dewaxed and rehydrated using xylene and a series of different concentrations of ethanol to restore them to a suitable humidity state. The sections were placed in a sodium citrate solution with a pH of 6, heated to boiling and maintained for 45 minutes to achieve antigen retrieval. After the solution cooled to room temperature, it was washed with deionized water for 5 minutes. The sections were immersed in a 3% H2O2 solution for 5 minutes to eliminate the activity of endogenous peroxidase. The sections were rinsed with PBS solution to remove residual H2O2. In order to block nonspecific binding sites on the sections, the sections were blocked in a 5% BSA solution for 20 minutes. After the blocking was completed, the blocking solution was gently absorbed with absorbent paper, and then the diluted Ki67 primary antibody solution was dropped on the sections and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour to specifically bind to the target antigen. After the primary antibody incubation was completed, the sections were washed with PBS to remove unbound antibodies. Incubate with secondary antibody for 30 minutes to further enhance the signal strength. After the secondary antibody incubation is completed, wash the slices with PBS again to remove the excess secondary antibody. Add color developer to develop the color reaction to visualize the target antigen. After the color development is completed, wash the slices with deionized water to remove the excess color developer. Perform hematoxylin staining to color the cell nuclei. After the staining is completed, wash the slices with deionized water again. In order to make the slices have a better observation effect, use different concentrations of anhydrous ethanol and xylene for dehydration and transparency. Use neutral gum to seal the slices and dry the slices for subsequent observation and analysis.
[0126] 1.6 Data Statistical Analysis
[0127] All experimental results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD), and the data were analyzed using SPSS25.0 software. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups, followed by the least significant difference and Tamhane's T2 test. Duncan's multiple comparison was used to test the significance of differences between groups within multiple variables. When the probability was less than 0.05, the result was considered statistically significant (P<0.05).
[0128] 2 Results and analysis
[0129] 2.1 Effects of compound feed additives on growth performance of weaned piglets
[0130] As shown in Table 6, compared with the basic feed group (negative control), the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 had no significant effect on the growth performance of weaned piglets. There were no significant differences in the average daily weight gain, average daily feed intake, feed-to-weight ratio and diarrhea rate between the two groups. When weaned piglets ingested artificial moldy diets (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON), their average daily weight gain was significantly reduced compared with the basic feed group (negative control). At the same time, the feed-to-weight ratio and diarrhea rate of piglets showed a significant upward trend, indicating that artificial moldy diets (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) had a negative impact on the growth and health of weaned piglets. Compared with the NC group, the average daily weight gain of piglets in the DON group decreased by 22.39% (P<0.05), the average daily feed intake decreased by 3.63% (P<0.05), the feed-to-weight ratio increased by 19.37% (P<0.05), and the diarrhea rate increased by 25% (P<0.05). Adding compound feed additive EC-1 to artificial moldy feed (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) significantly improved its growth performance and alleviated diarrhea. Compared with the DON group, the average daily weight gain of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group increased by 25.97% (P<0.05), the average daily feed intake increased by 4.23%, the feed-to-weight ratio decreased by 13.21%, and the diarrhea rate decreased by 22.33% (P<0.05).

[0134] 2.2 Effects of compound feed additives on blood biochemical parameters of weaned piglets
[0135] As shown in Table 7, the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 to the basal diet did not significantly affect the serum biochemical indices of weaned piglets. However, the intake of artificial moldy diets resulted in a significant increase in the levels of total protein (TP), glucose (GLU), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the serum of weaned piglets. Specifically, compared with the basal diet group (NC group), the serum total protein content of piglets in the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) group increased by 18.62%. The serum Glu, ALP, ALT and AST contents of piglets in the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) group were 17.81% (P<0.05), 23.93%, 39.11% (P<0.05) and 201.58% (P<0.05) higher than those in the basal diet group, respectively.
[0136] Adding compound feed additive EC-1 to artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) helps restore blood biochemical indicators such as total protein, glucose, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase in piglet serum to levels comparable to those of the basic feed group (negative control). Specifically, compared with the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON), the serum total protein (TP), glucose (GLU), creatine kinase (CK), alanine aminotransferase (GPT) and aspartate aminotransferase (GOT) contents of weaned piglets in the compound feed additive group (DON-EC-1 group) decreased by 9.05%, 14.62%, 16.98%, 14.59% (P<0.05) and 56.77% (P<0.05), respectively.

[0140] 2.3 Effects of compound feed additives on organ indexes of weaned piglets
[0141] As shown in Table 8, the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 to the basal diet did not have a significant effect on the organ index. Compared with the basal diet group (negative control), the intake of artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) significantly increased the liver index of piglets, and the liver index increased by 12.74% (P<0.05). The addition of EC-1 to the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) reduced the liver index of piglets, restoring it to a level equivalent to that of the basal feed group (negative control). Compared with the DON group, the liver index of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group decreased by 14.35% (P<0.05).

[0145] 2.4 Effect of compound feed additives on DON detoxification in weaned piglets
[0146] As shown in Table 9, DON was detected in the ileum contents, jejunum contents, and feces of piglets in the DON group. Compared with the DON group, the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 to artificial moldy feed (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) significantly increased the content of DON in the ileum contents, jejunum contents, and feces, indicating that the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 to artificial moldy feed (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) achieved effective DON adsorption and detoxification in vivo.

[0150] 2.5 Effects of compound feed additives on intestinal morphology of weaned piglets
[0151] Table 10, Table 11, Figure 4 Middle a, Figure 4 Middle b, Figure 4 Middle c, Figure 4 Middle d, Figure 5 Middle a, Figure 5 Middle b, Figure 5 Medium c and Figure 5 Figure d shows the effects of different treatments on the villus height and crypt depth indicators of the jejunum and ileum of piglets. It can be observed from the tabular data that compared with the NC group, the DON group significantly reduced the jejunal villus length and the ratio of villus height to crypt depth, which were reduced by 17.93% (P<0.05) and 14.40% (P<0.05), respectively. There was no significant difference in the jejunal villus height of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group compared with the DON group, but the ratio of villus height to crypt depth increased significantly by 17.69% compared with the DON group (P<0.05). These results indicate that artificial moldy diets (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) had a significant negative impact on the morphology of jejunal villi, and the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 alleviated this negative impact.
[0152] Compared with the NC group, the height of the ileal villi of the piglets in the DON group was significantly reduced by 25.51% (P<0.05), and the ratio of the villus height to the crypt depth was significantly reduced by 23.75% (P<0.05). This indicates that the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) had a negative impact on the morphology of the ileal villi. Compared with the DON group, the height of the ileal villi of the piglets in the DON-EC group increased by 16.1%, and the ratio of the villus height to the crypt depth also increased by 12.26%. These results indicate that the compound feed additive EC-1 alleviates the negative impact of DON on the morphology of the ileal villi.

[0158] 2.6 Effects of compound feed additives on the intestinal mucosal barrier of weaned piglets
[0159] As shown in Table 12, compared with the basic feed group (negative control), the serum DAO content of piglets in the artificial moldy diet group increased significantly by 50.76% (P<0.05), and the MPO content increased significantly by 47.52% (P<0.05). Compared with the DON group, the serum DAO content of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group increased significantly by 26.71% (P<0.05), and the MPO content decreased significantly by 20.1% (P<0.05).

[0163] 2.7 Effects of compound feed additives on the mRNA expression level of intestinal tight junction proteins in weaned piglets
[0164] As shown in Table 13, the intake of artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) significantly reduced the relative mRNA levels of four tight junction proteins, ZO-1, Occludin, Claudin-1 and Claudin-4, in the jejunum of weaned piglets (P<0.05). However, compared with the DON group, the mRNA levels of tight junction proteins in the jejunum of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group showed a significant upward trend.

[0168] 2.8 Effects of compound feed additives on serum immunoglobulins in weaned piglets
[0169] As shown in Table 14, the intake of artificial moldy feed (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) changed the level of immunoglobulins in the serum of weaned piglets. Compared with the basal feed group (negative control), the serum IgA content of the DON group increased by 27.5%, and the IgG content also increased by 23.19% (P<0.05). Compared with the DON group, the serum IgA content of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group increased by 17.65%, while the IgG content decreased by 23.15%. This result suggests that the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 affects the immune function of weaned piglets, mainly manifested in the regulation of serum immunoglobulin content.

[0173] 2.9 Effects of compound feed additives on Ki-67 cells in the jejunum and ileum of weaned piglets
[0174] Figure 6 Middle a, Figure 6 Middle b, Figure 6 Middle c, Figure 6 Middle d, Figure 7 Middle a, Figure 7 Middle b, Figure 7 Middle c, Figure 7 Figure d and Table 15 show the effects of different treatments on the proportion of Ki-67 positive cells in the intestine of piglets. Compared with the basic feed group (negative control), the proportion of Ki-67 positive cells in the jejunum of piglets fed with artificial moldy feed was significantly reduced. Compared with the DON group, the proportion of Ki-67 positive cells in the jejunum of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group showed a significant recovery. This result shows that the addition of compound feed additive EC-1 effectively alleviates the negative impact of DON-exceeding feed on intestinal cell proliferation.

[0178] 2.10 Effects of compound feed additives on the expression levels of serum inflammatory factors in weaned piglets
[0179] As shown in Table 16, compared with the basic feed group (negative control), the levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6 and TFN-α in the serum of piglets in the artificial moldy diet group increased significantly. This indicates that the artificial moldy diet triggered an inflammatory response in piglets, leading to increased secretion of inflammatory factors. Compared with the DON group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TFN-α in the serum of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group were significantly reduced, indicating that the compound feed additive EC-1 effectively reversed the excessive secretion of inflammatory factors caused by DON. Specifically, compared with the NC group, the level of IL-1β in the serum of piglets in the DON group increased by 186.09%, IL-6 increased by 69.32%, and TFN-α increased by 128.4% (P<0.05). Compared with the DON group, the levels of serum IL-1β, IL-6, and TFN-α in piglets in the DON-EC-1 group were reduced by 40.16%, 49.67%, and 36.92% (P<0.05), further indicating that the compound feed additive EC-1 effectively alleviated the inflammatory response caused by DON.

[0183] 2.11 Effects of compound feed additives on serum antioxidant indexes in weaned piglets
[0184] As shown in Table 17, compared with the basal diet group (negative control), the malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the serum of piglets in the artificial moldy diet group (DON group) was significantly increased, while glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) were significantly decreased. This indicates that the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) caused the oxidative stress in weaned piglets to increase and the antioxidant capacity was damaged. However, when the feed additive EC-1 was added to the artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON), the situation was significantly improved. Compared with the DON group, the GSH, CAT and T-AOC contents in the serum of piglets in the DON-EC-1 group were significantly increased, while the MDA content was significantly decreased. In summary, artificial moldy feed (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) has a negative impact on the antioxidant capacity of weaned piglets, while the addition of feed additive EC-1 significantly improved this situation, enhanced the antioxidant defense mechanism of piglets, and maintained a healthy state.

[0188] 3. Conclusion
[0189] Artificial moldy diet (containing 1.09 mg / kg DON) significantly reduced the average daily weight gain of piglets, reduced feed conversion rate, increased diarrhea rate, and damaged the body's antioxidant and immune functions. Adding compound feed additive EC-1 to the diet effectively alleviated the negative impact of DON on weaned piglets. The mechanism of action of compound feed additive EC-1 mainly includes: (1) chemical coupling between Si-O bonds of modified eggshell powder and polyhydroxyl groups of DON; (2) biological and physical adsorption between the complex pore structure of modified eggshell powder, yeast cell wall, coconut shell biochar and DON; (3) the active ingredients of honeysuckle extract exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects to enhance the piglets' detoxification ability of DON.
