Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of probiotics, specifically to Enterobacter LLM10 and a probiotic compound that promotes the initial initiation of estrus in gilts and primiparous sows, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Ovarian function in sows is one of the key factors affecting their reproductive capacity. When gilts reach a certain stage of development, follicles develop in the ovaries, producing a large amount of estrogen (E2). This estrogen is then fed back to the hypothalamus, releasing luteinizing hormone (LH), thus initiating estrus and ovulation. Gilts generally begin their estrous cycle at 150-210 days of age. However, some gilts fail to initiate estrus by 210 days of age, resulting in delayed estrus, anestrus, or even silent / silent estrus (normal follicle development, but without estrus symptoms such as increased libido, loss of appetite, vulvar swelling and mucus discharge, or even standing still and allowing boars to mount and mate). Gilts with delayed estrus cannot be used in mass production and are therefore culled, resulting in significant economic losses. Some primiparous sows come into estrus promptly after weaning, but others fail to do so, resulting in delayed estrus, which affects the batch production process and may lead to their culling and economic losses.
[0003] Recent studies have found that gut microbiota is closely related to female reproductive health. However, it is unknown whether combining probiotics with prebiotics such as cinnamon and fox nuts can better improve the quality of eggs and fertility in female animals. Summary of the Invention

[0033] The enterobacterium of the present invention ( Lactobacillus intestinalis LLM10, classified as Enterobacter. Lactobacillus intestinalis The strain was deposited on March 20, 2023, at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC, address: No. 3, No. 1 Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 100101, China), with accession number CGMCC No. 26850. Detailed Implementation
[0034] This application isolated 21 strains of *Lactobacillus enterica*, named LLM01, LLM02, LLM03, ..., LLM21. Studies revealed that only LLM10 significantly promoted the initial initiation of estrus in gilts and primiparous sows.
[0035] This invention further verifies the beneficial effects of probiotic compound on promoting early initiation of estrus in gilts and primiparous sows. Using 110-day-old two-way crossbred gilts and primiparous sows (starting from the first day of their first farrowing) as models, it was found that the probiotic compound can significantly increase hormone synthesis and secretion (GnRH, FSH, LH, E2) in gilts and primiparous sows compared to the single strain LLM10. This results in improved follicle development in gilts, promoted early initiation of estrus in gilts, facilitated timely estrus after weaning in primiparous sows, increased estrus rate, increased pregnancy rate, and increased number of live offspring.
[0036] In the following examples, the preparation process of cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum cassia (L.) D. Don; abbreviated CCD) is as follows:
[0037] (1) Collecting cinnamon: Cinnamon bark is collected in February and dried in a cool, shady place.
[0038] (2) Grind into powder slowly and evenly using a grinder;
[0039] (3) Store the obtained cinnamon powder in a cool, dry place for later use.
[0040] The preparation process of Euryale ferox Salisb. (abbreviated EFS) is as follows:
[0041] (1) Collecting Euryale ferox fruits: Harvest Euryale ferox fruits in autumn, wash them clean, and air dry them in a cool place.
[0042] (2) Grind into powder slowly and evenly using a grinder;
[0043] (3) Store the obtained gorgon fruit powder in a cool, dry place for later use.
[0044] The compound microbial agent used in the following examples includes: (strain LLM10 or LLM07) + CCD + EFS. 100 grams of the compound microbial agent includes 20-40 grams (dried strain LLM10 or LLM07), 10-15 grams of cinnamon powder CCD, and 20-45 grams of foxnut powder EFS. 1 gram of the compound agent is dissolved in 100 ml of physiological saline. In the same experiment, the mass of dried strain LLM10 or LLM07, CCD, and EFS used in each parallel treatment (e.g., CCD+EFS group, LLM10 group, LLM10+CCD+EFS group, LLM07 group, LLM07+CCD+EFS group) is the same.
[0045] For example, in the compound microbial agent treatment group (LLM10+CCD+EFS group), 1 gram of compound microbial agent was fed daily, while in the parallel strains LLM10 or LLM07 group and CCD+EFS group, the amount of active ingredient fed was the amount of dry microbial agent or CCD+EFS contained in 1 gram of compound microbial agent. That is, the amount of the same active ingredient was the same in the parallel treatment groups.
[0046] The calculation method for the synergistic effect coefficient:
[0047] Groups: (1) Control group (Con group); (2) CCD+EFS group (CCD+EFS group); (3) LLM10 group (LLM10 group); (4) LLM10+CCD+EFS probiotic compound group (LLM10+CCD+EFS group).
[0048] Calculation formula:
[0049]
[0050] If the synergy coefficient is greater than 100%, it indicates that there is a synergy effect.
[0051] Example 1: Isolation and culture of Lactobacillus LLM10 in probiotic compound
[0052] (1) Strains isolated: Enterobacter ( Lactobacillus intestinalisLLM10 was isolated from intestinal contents. Intestinal contents were serially diluted 10-fold with sterile physiological saline. 0.1 mL of each diluted solution was evenly spread onto MRS agar and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. The resulting colonies were then streaked onto fresh MRS solid medium for purification and incubation for another 48 h. Twenty-one strains of *Lactobacillus enterica* were isolated and named LLM01, LLM02, LLM03, ..., LLM21. Studies showed that only LLM10 significantly promoted the initial initiation of estrus in gilts and estrus in primiparous sows. This application also provides research data on another *Lactobacillus enterica* strain, LLM07.
[0053] (2) Enrichment of strains: The purified strains were inoculated one by one into sterile MRS broth medium on a sterile operating table using an inoculation loop, placed in a shaker, and cultured at 37°C for 48 hours. 16S rDNA identification was performed, and the remaining part was mixed with physiological saline containing 25% glycerol and stored in a -80°C freezer.
[0054] (3) 16S rDNA identification: After enriching the bacterial culture, colony PCR amplification was performed using universal bacterial primers, followed by 16S rDNA sequencing identification. The 16S rDNA sequences of each strain were compared with the 16S rDNA sequences of all identified bacteria in the NCBI database. It was found that strains LLM01–LLM21 were similar to Lactobacillus enterica ( Lactobacillus intestinalis) The 16S rDNA sequences showed the highest homology similarity, with a similarity greater than or equal to 99.9%, thus identifying these strains as Enterobacteriaceae (Enterobacter). Lactobacillus intestinalis) The enterobacterium ( Lactobacillus intestinalis The 16S rDNA of LLM10 is shown below (SEQ ID NO: 1):

Number of live piglets born to primiparous sows: e.g. Figure 14 As shown, the number of live offspring produced in the group of primiparous sows fed LLM10 was higher than that in the control group (Con), while the number of live offspring produced in the probiotic compound group (LLM10+CCD+EFS) was significantly higher than that in the LLM10 group; LLM10 and CCD+EFS had a synergistic effect, with a synergistic effect coefficient of 233%. However, the two groups fed LLM07 or LLM07+CCD+EFS were similar to the control group (Con) and did not have a synergistic effect.
[0117] The above embodiments are only used to understand the technical solutions of this application and do not limit the scope of protection of this application.
