Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial technology and relates to a strain of Bacillus sicca and its application in fermented rapeseed meal. Background Technology
[0002] Protein is a crucial component of animal feed. With the rapid development of my country's livestock and aquaculture industries and the continuous expansion of large-scale farming, the shortage of protein feed has become a prominent issue. Soybean meal, the most widely used protein feed ingredient, is heavily reliant on imports. Affected by market supply and demand imbalances, soybean meal prices have risen continuously, hindering the healthy development of my country's livestock industry. Rapeseed meal, a byproduct of rapeseed oil extraction, is rich in protein, amino acids, vitamins, and other trace elements, with a crude protein content of approximately 35%-45%. Under the "Soybean Meal Reduction and Substitution Action," rapeseed meal demonstrates significant application potential due to its wide availability, high protein content, balanced amino acid composition, and low price. However, currently, rapeseed meal has a lower protein digestibility compared to soybean meal, affecting protein absorption and utilization by animals. There is an urgent need to improve the protein digestibility of rapeseed meal and enhance its nutritional value for better application in animal feed. Microbial solid-state fermentation can improve the chemical composition and physicochemical properties of feed, and is economical and environmentally friendly, making it an ideal means to improve the nutritional value and digestibility of feed for animals.
[0003] Studies have shown that *Bacillus sicca* has potential applications in biocontrol, detoxification of mycotoxin-contaminated feed, and screening for high-protease-producing strains, warranting further research and exploration.

[0039] Example 2: Application of Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 I. Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 has the activity of degrading stored protein in rapeseed meal. The rapeseed meal was purchased from Inner Mongolia Jinshengxiang Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Technology Co., Ltd. The majority of the protein in rapeseed meal is storage protein, with over 90% being cruciferin and napin, accounting for 60% and 30% respectively. Cruciferin is a complex composed of six monomeric proteins, with GenBank numbers 3KGL_A, 3KGL_B, 3KGL_C, 3KGL_D, 3KGL_E, and 3KGL_F, all submitted on November 1, 2023.

[0043] The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown, the supernatant of BSJ-2 bacterial culture can effectively degrade the cruciferin subunit (approximately 50 KD) and napin protein (approximately 15 KD).
[0044] The above results indicate that Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 has the activity of degrading rapeseed meal storage proteins.
[0045] II. Fermentation with Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 improves the protein utilization rate and nutritional quality of rapeseed meal. 1. Rapeseed meal fermentation method 1) Adjust the dry matter content of rapeseed meal to 40% with sterile distilled water and set aside for later use. 2) Activated bacterial suspension: The BSJ-2 obtained in Example 1 was streaked onto LB agar plates and incubated overnight at 37°C with the plates inverted. Single colonies were then picked and transferred to 3 mL of liquid LB medium. After incubation at 37°C with shaking at 220 rpm for 12 h, 1% of the culture was transferred to 1.5 L of LB liquid medium and cultured at 37°C with shaking at 220 rpm for 12 h. The resulting BSJ-2 bacterial suspension was plated and counted on LB agar plates. After centrifugation, the suspension was resuspended in sterile water to obtain the BSJ-2 bacterial agent with a concentration of 3*10⁻⁶. 9 CFU / mL.
[0046] 3) Experimental group (BSJ-2): The BSJ-2 bacterial agent obtained in step 2) was added at a concentration of 1*10⁻⁶ viable bacteria. 8 CFU / gFM (wet weight) is evenly sprayed onto the rapeseed meal obtained in step 1), and stirred evenly to obtain a mixture. 30 g of the mixture is placed into a polyethylene bag, the bag opening is wrapped with sealing film and tied tightly with rubber bands. The bag is opened at 9:00 and 21:00 every day for stirring and ventilation. Fermentation is carried out for 3 days with an average indoor temperature between 20 and 25°C. The fermentation products are then collected.
[0047] Control group (CK): The only difference from the experimental group was that no BSJ-2 inoculant was added, and the fermentation products were collected.
[0048] Fresh sample group (FR): Unadjusted dry rapeseed meal without fermentation. Each group has 3 replicates.
[0049] 2. Detection of rapeseed meal fermented with Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 1) Nutritional quality related indicators Nutritional quality-related indicators were tested by the CVAS Feed Analysis China Service Center.
[0050] The fermentation products of the experimental group (BSJ-2) and the control group (CK) and the fresh sample group (FR) were tested for nutritional quality-related indicators.
[0051] The results are as follows Figure 2The results showed no significant differences in any indicators between the fresh sample group (FR) and the control group (CK) without fermentation. However, compared to the FR and CK groups, the BSJ-2 fermentation group significantly increased the content of crude protein (CP) and soluble protein (SP), as well as non-protein nitrogen (NPN) and fat (FAT). At the same time, it significantly reduced the content of neutral detergent fiber (NDF), while the content of acid detergent fiber (ADF) increased slightly. The BSJ-2 fermentation group had a lower level of neutral detergent-insoluble crude protein (NDICP) than the CK group, while the BSJ-2 fermentation group had a higher level of acid detergent-insoluble crude protein (ADICP) than both the CK and FR groups.
[0052] These indicators combined show that BSJ-2 fermentation can significantly improve the nutritional quality of rapeseed meal.
[0053] 2) Protein component analysis The fermentation products of the experimental and control groups in section 1 above, as well as the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Net Protein System (CNCPS), ADF, NDF, and other indicators of the fresh sample group (FR) were detected.
[0054] Crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) were determined according to the official analytical chemist association method described in the following literature: Horwitz, W. & AOAC International (Eds.). Official methods of analysis of AOAC International (18. ed., current through rev. 1, 2006).
[0055] Non-protein nitrogen (NPN) was determined using the TCA precipitation method, as described in the following literature: Latimer, GW (Ed.). (2023). AOAC Official Method 941.04 Urea and Ammoniacal Nitrogen in Animal Feed: Urease Method. In Official Methods of Analysis of AOACINTERNATIONAL (22nd ed.). Oxford University Press. The method for measuring soluble protein (SP) is described in the following literature: Krishnamoorthy, U., Muscato, TV, Sniffen, CJ, & Van Soest, PJ (1982). Nitrogen Fractions in Selected Feedstuffs. Journal of Dairy Science, 65(2), 217–225. The residues from the ADF and NDF procedures were used to determine acid detergent-insoluble protein (ADIP) and neutral detergent-insoluble protein (NDIP), with the methods described in the following literature: Horwitz, W. & AOAC International (Eds.). Official methods of analysis of AOAC International (18. ed., current throughrev. 1, 2006). The protein component content of CNCPS is calculated according to the following formula: The calculation method of each component of CNCPS (PA, PB1, PB2, PB3, PC) and the corresponding relationship with the index are as follows: PA=NPN; PB1=SP-PA; PB2=CP-SP-NDICP; PB3=NDIP-ADICP; PC=ADIP.
[0056] The results are as follows Figure 3As shown, the nonprotein nitrogen (PA) and rapidly degradable rumen protein (PB1) components in the fermentation products of the BSJ-2 fermentation group were significantly increased, reaching more than three times that of the fresh sample and the CK group, while the rumen medium-degradable protein (PB2) and slow-degradable rumen protein (PB3) components, which are not easily digested and absorbed, were significantly reduced.
[0057] This indicates that fermentation with Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 improves the protein utilization and nutritional quality of rapeseed meal.
[0058] 3) Fermentation with Bacillus sicca BSJ-2 can increase the content of important amino acids in rapeseed meal. The fermentation products of the experimental group and the control group in section 1 above, as well as the fresh sample group (FR), were used as the test samples.
