Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial uric acid lowering technology, specifically relating to a tobacco glutamate bacterium, a uric acid lowering bacterial agent, and their applications. Background Technology
[0002] Hyperuricemia in poultry is a common metabolic disease caused by purine metabolism disorder, characterized by abnormally high levels of uric acid in the blood. This condition is particularly prominent in intensive poultry farming, often leading to visceral or articular gout, resulting in stunted growth, decreased feed conversion ratio, organ damage, and even death, causing significant economic losses to the poultry industry. Poultry physiologically lack endogenous uricase, making it unable to effectively break down uric acid into water-soluble allantoin. Therefore, the end product of purine metabolism accumulates as uric acid, which is the fundamental reason for the prevalence of hyperuricemia in poultry. Currently, production mainly addresses this by adjusting to low-protein diets and using chemical drugs such as allopurinol. However, the former may affect production performance, while the latter carries risks of drug residues, potential toxic side effects, and bacterial resistance.
[0003] Utilizing microbial uricase to degrade uric acid offers a unique advantage over directly adding enzyme preparations. Probiotics can be orally administered directly to the intestines, continuously generating enzyme activity locally. They may also possess multiple beneficial functions, such as regulating gut microbiota, inhibiting pathogens, and enhancing immunity, achieving "multiple benefits from a single strain." However, existing uric acid-lowering microorganisms struggle to survive in the pH environment of gastric acid and bile salts, and some are pathogenic or hemolytic, making them unsuitable as feed additives.

The recommended classification name is... Glutamicibacter nicotianaeThe collection number is CGMCC No. 37236, and the collection address is No. 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The *Tobacco glutamate* strain of this invention is FL1-1, with accession number CGMCC No. 37236 and accession date of December 29, 2025. The optimal growth temperature of strain FL1-1 is 37°C, and the optimal pH value is 6. Strain FL1-1 can grow in bile salt environments with a pH greater than or equal to 3.0 and a bile salt concentration less than or equal to 0.3%. For example, strain FL1-1 can grow in environments with pH 3 and pH 4, and at bile salt concentrations of 3 g / L, 2 g / L, and 1 g / L. In uric acid culture medium, strain FL1-1 exhibits a uric acid degradation rate of 55.35% after 24 hours, 94.75% after 48 hours, and 95.96% after 72 hours. Therefore, strain FL1-1 has a strong uric acid degradation ability. Furthermore, strain FL1-1 exhibits antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella, and its DPPH scavenging ability in the fermentation broth is stronger than that of vitamin C, demonstrating antioxidant capacity. Strain FL1-1 did not show hemolysis. On the other hand, strain FL1-1 is sensitive to antibiotics GEN, CTR, CIP, CC, C, CN, MI, LVX, E, VAN, PIP, and AMK, but insensitive to antibiotics OX, TET, IPM, and SXT, which facilitates the use of antibiotics to control the growth and development of strain FL1-1.
[0018] In summary, the FL1-1 strain of the present invention, while possessing high uric acid degradation capacity, also exhibits acid resistance, high bile salt tolerance, antibacterial properties, antioxidant activity, antibiotic sensitivity, and non-hemolytic activity. Therefore, the FL1-1 strain can provide a new material for preparing formulations to prevent and alleviate hyperuricemia in poultry.
[0019] 2. The uric acid-lowering bacterial agent based on *Bacillus nicotineus* of this invention is made from *Bacillus nicotineus* and excipients. The FL1-1 strain of this invention exhibits a uric acid degradation rate of 86.78% after 24 hours in a culture environment of 0.015 g / L FeSO4, significantly higher than the 55.35% without FeSO4, representing a 57% increase in uric acid degradation rate. The FL1-1 strain in this uric acid-lowering bacterial agent can efficiently degrade uric acid and, due to its acid and bile salt resistance, maintains its activity and function in the complex environment of the poultry digestive tract. The addition of FeSO4 can further significantly enhance uric acid degradation efficiency, thereby effectively preventing and alleviating hyperuricemia in poultry, demonstrating good application potential.

[0054] Example 5 The viable count and Fe of a uric acid-lowering bacterial agent based on *Bacillus glutamicum* 2+ The ratio is 5×10 9 CFU: 10.96mg.
[0055] The method of applying the uric acid-lowering bacterial agent includes the following steps: The FL1-1 strain was inoculated into LB broth medium and cultured at 37°C for 24 h. 2 mL of the culture was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min, then washed twice with 1 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, resuspended in 0.9% sodium chloride solution, and the bacterial concentration was adjusted to 1 × 10⁻⁶. 9 CFU / mL was used to obtain the bacterial suspension of strain FL1-1.

[0057] To illustrate the beneficial effects of the present invention, the following experiments were also conducted.
[0058] 1. Experimental Methods 1.1 Acid and bile salt resistance The pH of the LB liquid medium was adjusted to 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, and 6.0, respectively, and the bile salt concentrations were set to 0 g / L, 1 g / L, 2 g / L, 3 g / L, and 4 g / L, respectively. FL1-1 was inoculated into the LB liquid medium at a 1% (v / v) inoculum and cultured at 37°C for 24 h. The absorbance of each experimental group at 600 nm was measured using a spectrophotometer. Acid tolerance curves and bile salt tolerance curves of the strains were plotted with pH and bile salt concentration on the x-axis and absorbance on the y-axis, respectively.
[0059] 1.2 Determination of antibacterial properties The antibacterial activity of the strain was determined using the perforation diffusion method, as follows: FL1-1 strain was inoculated into LB broth and cultured for 24 h. 2 mL of the bacterial culture was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 5 min, and the collected supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 μm sterile filter for sterilization. Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi were activated and evenly spread onto LB agar plates. After the plate surface was slightly dry, perforations were made, and 100 μL of the treated fermentation broth was added to each well. The plates were then incubated overnight under suitable conditions. The diameter of the inhibition zone was measured using calipers, with three replicates for each strain. Uninoculated LB broth was added to the wells as a negative control, and the experiment was conducted simultaneously.
[0060] 1.3 Determination of DPPH free radical scavenging ability Weigh 0.0394 g of DPPH, add 10 mL of anhydrous ethanol, and sonicate for 2 min to completely dissolve it, preparing a 10 mmol DPPH stock solution. Store the stock solution in a sealed container at 4°C, protected from light. Dilute the DPPH stock solution with anhydrous ethanol to obtain a 0.1 mmol / L DPPH working solution. Inoculate FL1-1 strain into LB liquid medium and collect the supernatant after 12 h, 24 h, and 36 h of culture in LB liquid medium. Take 2 mL of the supernatant from each time period, add 2 mL of DPPH working solution, mix well, and let stand at room temperature in the dark for 30 min. Measure the absorbance at 517 nm using a spectrophotometer. Use 1 mg / mL of Vc as a positive control and LB liquid medium as a blank control. Each time period sample and control was collected three times, and the average value was taken. Calculate the DPPH scavenging rate of the fermentation broth according to formula (2).
[0061] Formula (2): DPPH free radical scavenging rate = [1-(ab) / c]x100%.
[0062] In the formula, a is the absorbance of FL1-1 supernatant and DPPH working solution, b is the absorbance of FL1-1 supernatant and LB medium, and c is the absorbance of LB medium and DPPH working solution.
[0063] 1.4 Safety Measurement 1.4.1 Hemolysis test Bacteria were streaked onto Columbia agar plates, with Staphylococcus aureus as a positive control, and incubated in an anaerobic environment for 24 hours. The presence of hemolytic zones around the colonies was observed, and the type of hemolysis (α-hemolysis, β-hemolysis, or γ-hemolysis) was recorded.
[0064] 1.4.2 Antibiotic susceptibility analysis The test strains were evenly spread on the surface of LB solid medium, and drug sensitivity test discs were attached to them. After incubation at 37°C for 24 hours, the diameter of the inhibition zone was measured, and the sensitivity of the strains to antimicrobial drugs was evaluated based on the size of the inhibition zone.
[0065] 2. Experimental Results 2.1 Acid and bile salt resistance The acid resistance of FL1-1 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the growth of strain FL1-1 was essentially inhibited at an ambient pH of 2, indicating that strongly acidic conditions significantly affected the proliferation of this bacterium. The strain could still grow at pH 3 and 4, but at a slower rate. However, at pH 6.0, the growth of the strain was not significantly affected and essentially returned to normal. This suggests that the bacterium possesses certain acid-resistant characteristics.
[0066] The bile salt tolerance of FL1-1 is as follows: Figure 8As shown in the figure. The results showed that the OD600nm values of FL1-1 bacteria were 0.95, 1.1, 1.07, and 0.96 under bile salt concentrations of 0 g / L, 1 g / L, 2 g / L, and 3 g / L, respectively. FL1-1 could grow well under the 3 g / L bile salt condition, indicating that the FL1-1 strain can tolerate a high bile salt environment.
[0067] 2.2 Antibacterial properties As shown in Table 1, the sterile supernatant of FL1-1 has inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella, and the degree of inhibition varies, with the inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus being the most significant.
[0068] Table 1 Antibacterial effect of FL1-1 2.3 The scavenging effect of FL1-1 fermentation supernatant on DPPH like Figure 9 As shown, the DPPH free radical scavenging rate of the fermentation supernatant of strain FL1-1 showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with fermentation time, reaching 83.25% after 24 hours. The scavenging rate of the positive control Vc was approximately 77.11%. This indicates that the fermentation supernatant of strain FL1-1 has DPPH free radical scavenging ability, and its antioxidant activity is relatively more significant at a fermentation time of 24 hours, exceeding that of Vc, demonstrating strong antioxidant potential.
[0069] 2.4 Security 2.4.1 Hemolysis test The hemolytic activity of FL1-1, such as Figure 10 As shown in the figure. The results showed that FL1-1 did not exhibit hemolysis after 48 hours of incubation, with Staphylococcus aureus as a positive control.
[0070] 2.4.2 FL1-1 antibiotic sensitivity FL1-1 sensitivity to antibiotics, such as Figure 11 As shown in the figure. The results show that FL1-1 is sensitive to GEN, CTR, CIP, CC, C, CN, MI, LVX, E, VAN, PIP, and AMK, but not sensitive to OX, TET, IPM, and SXT.
