[0063] Extract the exopolysaccharide in the above fermentation supernatant and detect the exopolysaccharide content. The specific process is as follows: (1) Trichloroacetic acid treatment: Slowly add trichloroacetic acid with a concentration of 800 mg / mL to the fermentation supernatant to make its final concentration 40 mg / mL. Let it stand at 4°C for 8 h, then centrifuge at 10000 rpm and 4°C for 10 min. Discard the precipitate and collect the supernatant.
[0064] (2) Absolute ethanol treatment: Add absolute ethanol to the supernatant according to a volume ratio of 1:4. Let it stand overnight at 4°C, then centrifuge at 10000 rpm and 4°C for 10 min. Collect the precipitate at the bottom; dissolve the precipitate in distilled water at 60°C, centrifuge at 10000 rpm for 10 min, discard the insoluble precipitate at the bottom, and collect the supernatant.
[0065] (3) Dialysis: Load the supernatant into a dialysis bag with a molecular weight cut-off of 8 KDa, dialyze for 2 h, change the dialysis fluid, and then change the dialysis fluid every 6 h. Dialyze continuously for 2 d; finally, collect the polysaccharide solution in the dialysis bag and vacuum freeze-dry to obtain the extracellular polysaccharide.
[0066] (4) Detection: First, dry glucose by blowing air for 2 h. After cooling, take 100 mg of glucose and put it into a 1 L volumetric flask, shake well, and make up the volume; add components to the reaction system as shown in the following table. After it cools, measure the absorbance at a wavelength of 490 nm. Do 3 parallels for each group; draw a standard curve with the glucose content (μg / mL) as the abscissa and the absorbance value (A490) as the ordinate. Measure the absorbance of the extracellular polysaccharide at 490 nm in the same way as above, and calculate the extracellular polysaccharide yield of the strain through the regression equation.
[0067] After detection, the content of extracellular polysaccharide secreted by Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s is 571.09 ± 0.45 μg / mL. Therefore, it shows that the Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s provided in this application can secrete extracellular polysaccharide and can obtain a fermentation supernatant with a relatively high content of extracellular polysaccharide.

[0069] (3) Preparation of the fermentation supernatant of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s: Centrifuge the fermented product at 5000 rpm / min for 20 min, take the supernatant to obtain the fermentation supernatant. Detection of enzyme production characteristics

[0071] Determination of protease activity: Determine the protease activity in the crude enzyme solution by the method for the determination of protease activity according to GB / T 28715-2012.
[0072] Determination of pectinase activity: Determine the pectinase activity in the crude enzyme solution by the method for the determination of pectinase preparation according to QB 1502-92.
[0073] After detection, in the fermentation supernatant obtained in Example 4, the protease activity is 36.45±0.05 U / mL, the cellulase activity is 26.55±0.11 U / mL, and the pectinase activity is 61.38±0.09 U / mL. Therefore, it shows that the primary fermentation of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s provided by this application can produce protease, cellulase and pectinase. Applying it to fermented feed is more conducive to the digestion and absorption of livestock and poultry, and improves the growth and health of the animal body. Example 5
[0074] Example 5 provides a bacterial suspension of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s, and its preparation method is as follows: (1) Preparation of the seed liquid of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s: Inoculate the strain of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s into the MRS solid medium containing calcium carbonate, statically culture at 37°C for 36 h, screen the single colony with a larger calcium dissolution circle, inoculate it into the MRS liquid medium, and shake culture at 37°C for 24 h to obtain the seed liquid of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s; (2) Preparation of the bacterial suspension of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s: Inoculate the seed liquid of Lactobacillus paracasei PL4.4s into the MRS liquid medium according to the volume percentage of 2%, and after shaking culture for 48 h, obtain the bacterial suspension. Determination of antioxidant capacity
[0075] Determine the antioxidant capacity of the bacterial suspension obtained in Example 5, and the specific process is as follows: (1) DPPH radical scavenging ability Take 2 mL of the bacterial suspension and add 2 mL of a 0.2 mmol / L DPPH absolute ethanol solution, designated as Ai. Mix well thoroughly and react in the dark at room temperature for 30 min. After centrifuging at 3000×g for 10 min, take the supernatant and measure the absorbance Ai at 517 nm, calculate the DPPH free radical scavenging rate, and perform parallel measurements 3 times for each group and take the average value. Aj is 2 mL of the bacterial suspension + 2 mL of absolute ethanol, and Ac is 2 mL of absolute ethanol + 2 mL of DPPH. The calculation formula for the DPPH free radical scavenging rate is as follows: DPPH free radical scavenging rate (%) = (1 - (Ai - Aj) / Ac) × 100% (2)Hydroxyl radical scavenging ability Take 1 mL of 2.5 mmol / L o-phenanthroline, sequentially add 1 mL of PBS buffer solution and 1 mL of distilled water, mix well thoroughly, and then add 1 mL of 2.5 mmol / L FeSO 4 and 1 mL of 20 mmol / L H 2 O 2 , react at 37 °C for 60 min, take the supernatant, and then measure the absorbance A of the control group (A 对 ) at 536 nm. Use 1 mL of distilled water to replace 1 mL of H 2 O 2 as the blank group and measure the absorbance A of the blank group (A 空 ). Use 1 mL of the bacterial suspension to replace 1 mL of distilled water as the sample group and measure the absorbance A of the sample group (A 样 ). Calculate the hydroxyl radical scavenging rate, perform parallel measurements 3 times for each group and take the average value. The calculation formula for the hydroxyl radical scavenging rate is as follows: Hydroxyl radical scavenging rate (%) = (A 样 - A 对 ) / (A 空 - A 对 ) × 100% (3)Superoxide anion scavenging ability Mix 0.5 mL of the bacterial suspension with 1.5 mL of Tris-HCl solution (pH 8.0), react at 25 °C for 20 min, then add 200 μL of 25 mmol / L pyrogallol and react for 5 min, and then add 250 μL of HCl to terminate the reaction. Centrifuge at 3000×g for 10 min, take the supernatant and measure the absorbance A of the sample group (A 样 ) at 325 nm. Use 0.5 mL of distilled water to replace 0.5 mL of the bacterial suspension as the control group and measure the absorbance A of the control group (A 对 ). Calculate the superoxide anion free radical scavenging rate, perform parallel measurements 3 times for each group and take the average value. The calculation formula for the superoxide anion free radical scavenging rate is as follows: Superoxide anion free radical scavenging rate (%) = (1 - A样 / A 对 ) × 100% The test results are shown in Table 6 below.
