Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aquatic feed processing, and more specifically, to a method for synergistically preparing a functional fish feed based on yeast cells and sodium gluconate, the feed prepared thereby, and its applications. Background Art
[0002] Freshwater fish, as one of the important aquatic products in China, play an important role in ensuring the supply of national aquatic products, increasing farmers' income, and promoting the development of rural economy. With the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for freshwater fish is increasing continuously, especially the demand for high-quality, green, and safe aquatic products is becoming increasingly prominent. The market scale is huge and has been growing continuously in recent years. According to market research data, the annual output of freshwater fish in China has exceeded 10 million tons, accounting for half of the total global freshwater fish production. With the increase in domestic consumption demand and the expansion of the export market, the market scale is expected to continue to maintain a stable growth trend.
[0003] In fish farming, the feed cost accounts for 60%-70% of the total production cost, and traditional feeds have the following core problems: High protein source dependence: mainly relying on high-cost raw materials such as fish meal and soybean meal, resulting in high costs. Insufficient functionality: ordinary feeds only meet basic nutritional needs, lack functions such as immune enhancement and antioxidant properties, and are prone to growth stagnation due to diseases or stress responses. Adhesive defects: traditional adhesives (such as carboxymethyl cellulose) have high costs and may leave chemical residues, affecting the health of fish.
[0004] The yeast cells (OD600≥50) generated during the production process of erythritol are usually directly discarded, but they are rich in protein (40-50%), nucleic acid, and β-glucan (10%-30%), resulting in serious waste of resources. Traditional erythritol fermentation processes require inactivation treatment of the cells, increasing energy consumption and costs.
[0005] Sodium gluconate is a colorless crystal or white powder obtained by enzymatic conversion from corn starch. It is easily soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. Chemically, it belongs to carbohydrate derivatives and has various uses, especially in the food industry and the pharmaceutical field. Sodium gluconate is not only an effective food additive but also used in the manufacture of various nutritional supplements due to its good solubility and stability.
[0006] Therefore, it is an urgent problem for those skilled in the art to provide a method for synergistically preparing a functional fish feed based on yeast cells and sodium gluconate, the feed prepared thereby, and its applications. Summary of the Invention
[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides a method for synergistically preparing a functional fish feed based on yeast cells and sodium gluconate, as well as the feed prepared thereby and its application, which combines yeast cells after erythritol fermentation, sodium gluconate and modified starch to prepare fish feed.
[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A method for synergistically preparing a functional fish feed based on yeast cells and sodium gluconate, comprising the following steps: (1) Cell pretreatment: Take the erythritol fermentation broth and filter it through a ceramic membrane with a pore size of 0.1 μm to obtain the retained concentrated cell suspension with an OD600 of 150 - 200 and a pH value of 3.5 - 4.5; add 0.5 - 1% (mass / volume ratio) of sodium gluconate to the concentrated cell suspension, stir and mix evenly to obtain a mixed solution; (2) Construction of a highly viscous matrix: Add 6 - 10% (mass / volume ratio) of modified starch to the mixed solution, gelatinize it at 95 - 98 °C for 15 - 20 minutes to form a uniform colloid, and obtain a gelatinized material; (3) Drying and shaping: Spread the gelatinized material on a tray and place it in an oven at 50 - 70 °C for drying for 12 - 16 hours, controlling the final moisture content ≤ 10%; (4) Crush it to 30 - 60 meshes to obtain fish feed with uniform particles.
[0009] Further, the erythritol fermentation broth in step (1) is obtained by fermentation with Candida lipolytica.
[0010] Further, the modified starch in step (2) is phosphate starch.
[0011] Further, the functional fish feed prepared by the above method.
[0012] Further, the application of the functional fish feed in improving feed utilization rate and weight gain.
[0013] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses a method for synergistically preparing a functional fish feed based on yeast cells and sodium gluconate, as well as the feed prepared thereby and its application, having the following beneficial effects: (1) Efficient resource utilization: The ceramic membrane directly retains live cells, avoids the sterilization step, retains the active components of the cells, and realizes the high-value utilization of the by-products of erythritol fermentation.
[0014] (2) Functional Synergy: Sodium gluconate can act as a biological cycle regulator, affecting the metabolism and biochemical reactions in cultured organisms by adjusting the water environment, thereby enhancing the resistance of cultured organisms and reducing the incidence of diseases. In addition, sodium gluconate can also enhance the immunity and antioxidant capacity of cultured organisms. The addition of sodium gluconate promotes the cross-linking of bacterial protein and modified starch to form a stable colloid, while enhancing the calcium and phosphorus absorption and digestion functions of fish.
[0015] (3) Cost and Safety Optimization: Replacing traditional adhesives with modified starch reduces raw material costs by 20-30% and has no risk of chemical residues.
[0016] (4) The feed utilization rate is increased by 5-10%, and the weight gain rate reaches 7-9%. Specific Embodiments
