Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] This specification relates to a feed composition comprising a lactic acid fermented product of a black soldier fly solvent extract, and specifically, it can be used for promoting animal growth, increasing the ratio of beneficial bacteria in the intestines, increasing unsaturated fatty acids in the body, and / or improving lipid metabolism. Background Technology
[0002] Recently, as the production burden on aquaculture has increased due to high demand for fishmeal and the resulting price hikes, linkages are being established with the development of insect proteins for aquaculture and livestock farming. The search for alternative and sustainable proteins requires edible solutions in the short term, and the benefits of insects as feed options are being highlighted. In particular, insects serve as a natural food source for various fish and poultry; for instance, chickens peck at worms and larvae in the topsoil and straw, while maggots are used as bait in fishing.
[0003] Major insects used as animal feed include common housefly larvae, silkworms, mealworms, grasshoppers, or termites. While common housefly larvae have been used as a substitute for fishmeal in broiler production, concerns have been raised regarding disease transmission and bacterial proliferation in livestock feed. In the case of termites, although they have been used as food for fish or birds, they are difficult to raise and have raised safety issues due to methanol emissions. Silkworms have been reported to have no impact compared to general feed in terms of feed intake, weight gain, feed efficiency, or protein efficiency. Recently, black soldier flies, capable of decomposing organic substances such as spoiled food or feces, are a protein source that can replace fishmeal and soybean meal, containing 40% protein and 30% fat. The fatty acid composition of black soldier fly larvae generally shows a higher content of saturated fatty acids (SFA; 59.1%) than unsaturated fatty acids (UFA; 37.4%), and among saturated fatty acids, lauric acid (C12:0) has the highest content at 35.72%, accounting for approximately 33% of the total fatty acids (Makkar et al. 2014). Lauric acid is a type of medium-chain fatty acid (MCFA) composed of 6 to 12 carbon atoms and possesses antibacterial properties, so it can be used as a natural antibiotic for gut health (Zeitz et al., 2015).
[0004] Therefore, to utilize insects in general animal feed, it is necessary to ensure safety through heavy metal content and toxicity assessments, prepare for contamination and spoilage caused by microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, and conduct research on safe long-term storage, distribution, and preservation methods, as well as on feed ratios, growth, and immune enhancement. Meanwhile, in the case of fermentation methods using microorganisms, new efficacy distinct from the existing benefits of the raw materials can be imparted, and numerous harmful components can be transformed into safe ones. Furthermore, by breaking down nutritional components into low-molecular-weight compounds through the action of decomposing enzymes, absorption can be increased, irritation can be reduced, and allergenic components can be decreased.
[0005] There is a high need for research regarding fermented edible insect extracts, which are produced by generating natural antimicrobial substances using bioconversion technology with lactic acid bacteria and applying them to edible insects to enhance antimicrobial, antioxidant, and preservative functions for storage, distribution, and preservation; and regarding fermented edible insect extracts that improve bioavailability and functionality by breaking down amino acids, peptides, fats, and carbohydrates using the enzymes of the lactic acid bacteria themselves. Furthermore, fermentation by beneficial intestinal microorganisms generates short-chain fatty acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid, which serve as major energy sources for the intestinal microbiome and the human body. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the intestines act as nutrients for intestinal epithelial cells, affecting the viable cell count and ratio of the intestinal microbial community, pH, and gene expression for cell proliferation (Cook 1998). Short-chain fatty acids have functions to improve irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease, as well as to prevent cardiovascular disease and obesity (Kumar 2012).
[0006] The masu salmon is a fish belonging to the family Salmonidae, along with trout, coho salmon, and humpback salmon. The scientific name of the masu salmon is Oncorhynchus masou, and currently, the only species of the genus Salmon that inhabit or return to rivers in Korea are the common salmon, masu salmon, chum salmon, and rainbow trout. The chum salmon is the anadromous form (O. masou var masou) of the masu salmon, while the term "masu salmon" commonly refers to the landlocked form (O. masou var ishikawa). The cold-water fish species, the cherry salmon, is an economically viable fish species that is rich in essential amino acids (threonine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, phenylalanine, lysine, arginine, histidine), vitamin C (600 ug / 100g), and vitamin E (200 ug / 100g), and is also rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid (C18:1).
[0007] There has been no research to date on the effects of fermenting black soldier fly, which is rich in long-chain fatty acids, with lactic acid bacteria capable of producing short-chain fatty acids, not only as a protein substitute but also on the improvement of lipid metabolism through changes in animal gut microbiota, growth, and fatty acids, and thus research on this is necessary.

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0100] The present invention will be explained in more detail below through examples. However, the following examples are intended to illustrate the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention.
[0102] Example 1. Preparation of Black Soldier Fly Extract
[0103] Example 1-1. Preparation of Black Soldier Fly Powder
[0104] Black soldier fly larvae were raised for 15 to 18 hours at a temperature of 27°C and a humidity of 60%, and then fasted for 3 days to clean the intestines of the black soldier fly larvae. Next, the black soldier fly larvae were washed under running water and then treated with insecticide by hot-air drying at 100°C for 24 hours.
[0105] The dried black soldier fly larvae were ground into powder using a grinder. Specifically, to prevent heat generation from the use of the grinder, a grinding cycle of grinding for 1 minute followed by a rest for 3 minutes was repeated 5 times to produce black soldier fly larva powder (Hermetia illucens; Hi).
[0106] Example 1-2. Preparation of Black Soldier Fly Hot Water Extract
[0107] 50g of black soldier fly larva powder (Hi) prepared in Example 1-1 above was mixed with 950ml of water and mixed by irradiating with ultrasound at 750 watts, 10kHz conditions at 10-second intervals for 5 minutes (Sonics Vibra-Cell, USA). Afterwards, the mixture was treated in a 121℃ high-temperature high-pressure autoclave (steam sterilizer) for 5 to 20 minutes to prepare a hot water extract of black soldier fly larva (Hotwater Extract of Hermetia illucens, HiHe). The hot water extract was stored at -70℃ and then freeze-dried, or freeze-dried immediately after preparation to form a powder, or the liquid extract was taken and used in the following experiments.
[0109] Example 2. Isolation and identification of lactic acid bacteria for the preparation of fermented product
[0110] Example 2-1. Isolation of lactic acid bacteria
[0111] To prepare a fermented product using effective strains for fish feed, Lactobacillus plantarum (KCCM13068P), Lactococcus lactis (KCCM13066P), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (KCCM13067P), and Lactobacillus brevis (KCCM13069P), which are lactic acid bacteria strains with functions such as antibacterial and enzymatic activity, were isolated and identified from seawater and used, respectively. The above-mentioned Lactobacillus plantarum (KCCM13068P), Lactococcus lactis (KCCM13066P), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (KCCM13067P), and Lactobacillus brevis (KCCM13069P) were isolated from deep sea water at an aquaculture farm of the Gyeongbuk Fisheries Research Institute in June 2018. The strains isolated from the above-mentioned deep sea water were plated onto DE MAN, ROGOSA and SHARPE (MRS) agar medium supplemented with 0.1% (v / v) bromocresol purple (BCP) and cultured at 37°C for 1 day. Subsequently, single species were isolated by repeatedly selecting yellow colonies formed by reaction with BCP.
[0112] The four isolated strains were cultured in MRS liquid medium, mixed with 50% (v / v) glycerol to achieve a final glycerol concentration of 25%, and then stored at -70℃.
[0113] Example 2-2. Identification of Lactic Acid Bacteria
[0114] The strain isolated in Example 2-1 above was identified using 16S rRNA sequencing analysis. To identify the four strains, the genomic DNA of each strain was first isolated using a mini genomic DNA extraction kit (Promega).
[0115] Using the isolated genomic DNA above as a template, the 16S rRNA gene regions of the four strains above were amplified using a TaKaRa PCR Thermal Cycler (Japan) with the following sets of 27F (Sequence No. 1) and 1492R primers (Sequence No. 2) and the AccPower PCR premix kit (Bioneer, Korea), and the information of the primer sets is shown in Table 1 below.

[0123] Example 3. Confirmation of optimal conditions for the preparation of black soldier fly extract lactic acid bacteria fermented product
[0124] In preparing a lactic acid fermented product of black soldier fly larvae extract, an experiment was conducted to determine whether the addition of a carbon source is necessary as an optimal condition to effectively induce lactic acid fermentation. To verify this, a medium (Test Medium 1) was prepared by adding 1 L of the hot water extract of black soldier fly larvae (HiHe) prepared in Examples 1-2 above, 2 (w / v)% of galactose (Galactose Sigma, USA) as a carbon source and 0.5 (w / v)% of yeast powder (Kisan Bio, Korea) as a nitrogen source based on the volume of the extract. In addition, as a control, a DE MAN, ROGOSA and SHARPE (MRS) medium, which is a commonly used lactic acid bacteria medium (Control Medium), and a medium containing only 1 L of HiHe (Test Medium 2) were prepared.
[0125] In the three media prepared above (Test Medium 1, Test Medium 2, and Control Medium), 1 x 10⁶ of the four types of lactic acid bacteria—Lactobacillus plantarum (KCCM13068P), Lactococcus lactis (KCCM13066P), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (KCCM13067P), and Lactobacillus brevis (KCCM13069P)—were each added. 8 1 mL aliquots were inoculated at a concentration of cfu / ml, and additionally, 1 x 10 of the above four types of lactic acid bacteria were added. 8 0.25 mL of a mixture was inoculated at a concentration of cfu / ml, and the lactic acid bacteria inoculated into the above medium were cultured at 30°C for 24 hours.
[0126] The optimal culture conditions for the fermented product were determined by measuring the LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria) Counts (log cfu / ml) after 24 hours of culture. Specifically, the fermented product was diluted to 1 (v / v)% in a solid medium prepared by adding agarose (BD Difco, USA) to each liquid medium, 1 ml was spread onto a LAB plate, and the number of colonies formed was measured after incubation at 30°C for 24 hours. The results are shown in Table 4 and Figure 1 below.

[0128] As shown in Table 4 above, Test Medium 2 containing a hot water extract of black soldier fly larvae and Test Medium 1, which added 0.5% yeast and 2% galactose to the same, both increased the growth of four types of lactic acid bacteria—Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus lactis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, and Lactobacillus brevis—compared to the control medium, with Test Medium 1 showing a particularly high degree of increase. In addition, it was confirmed that culturing a mixture of the four types of lactic acid bacteria increased the growth of the bacteria compared to single inoculation.
[0130] Example 4. Confirmation of the effect of black soldier fly fermentation product on fish growth
[0131] Example 4-1. Preparation of fish feed
[0132] An experiment was conducted after manufacturing cherry salmon feed to determine the effect of lactic acid fermentation of black soldier fly extract on fish growth.
[0133] Specifically, a lactic acid bacteria fermentation product (HiLAB) prepared by inoculating a mixture of the four types of lactic acid bacteria into an extract to which 2 (w / v)% of galactose (D-glucose, Galactose Sigma, USA) and 0.5 (w / v)% of yeast powder (Kisan Bio, Korea) were added based on the volume of the extract to the hot water extract of black soldier fly larvae (HiHe) prepared in Examples 1-2 above, and LT fishmeal (Blumar, Denmark), soybean meal, wheat gluten, tankage meal (Puyer biopharma, China), starch, wheat flour, mineral mix (Puyer biopharma, China), vitamin mix (Puyer biopharma, China), vitamin C, vitamin E, MCP (Monocalcium Phosphate; AAKO, Japan), choline, taurine, and fish oil; A feed for mountain trout (experimental feed) was prepared by mixing Shangdong Pharmaceutical (China), and the specific composition information is shown in Table 5 below. As a control group, a feed (control feed) mixed with soybean meal was prepared in place of the lactic acid fermented black soldier fly extract included in the experimental feed, and the specific composition information of the control group is also shown in Table 5 below. The above experimental feed and control feed were prepared by mixing at the Feed Center of the National Institute of Fisheries Science.

[0135] In addition, component analysis was performed on the above-mentioned feed in a dry state.
[0136] Specifically, 40g of refined sea sand of 20 mesh was mixed with 20g of the above-prepared feed and dried in a dry oven at 105℃ for 5 hours. The moisture content ((weight of feed after drying / weight of feed before drying) x 100) was determined by the atmospheric pressure heating drying method, the ash content was determined by the direct incineration method (drying at 550℃ for 3 hours), the crude protein content was determined by the nitrogen quantification method using an automatic crude protein analyzer (Auto kjeldahl system; Bunchi, Switzerland), and the crude fat content was determined by the ether extraction method. The carbohydrate content was calculated from the analyzed moisture, ash, crude protein, and crude fat content using the following mathematical formula 1, and the analysis results are shown in Table 6 below.

[0140] Example 4-2. Conduct of feed feeding and growth experiment on mountain trout
[0141] As the experimental subjects, juvenile individuals of cherry salmon produced by the Gyeongsangbuk-do Freshwater Fish Research Center, acclimated to compound feed (dominant), and raised to a body weight of 14 to 15 g were used. A total of 6 tanks were prepared, and 50 fish were placed in each tank. The feed prepared in Example 4-1 was divided into two groups of three tanks each, and the tanks in each group were fed the control feed (control group) and the experimental feed (experimental group) respectively for 4 weeks. During the experiment, clean tap water was supplied consistently to the rearing tanks, and measures were taken to ensure that any excess water drained out through the drain.
[0142] As described above, while feeding, the total body weight was measured before the start of feeding (Day 0) and at weeks 2 and 4 after the start of feeding. Specifically, for each measurement round, the weight was measured for 50 cherry salmon per tank, and the average value for each group was calculated.
[0143] In addition, to measure the growth rate of the cherry salmon, the daily growth rate (Specific Growth Rate, SGR) was calculated using the method of Equation 2 below.
[0144] [Mathematical Formula 2]
[0145]
[0146] In the above mathematical formula 2, the initial fish body weight refers to the average body weight of the corresponding group of trout immediately before the feed feeding experiment, and the final fish body weight refers to the average body weight of the corresponding group of trout measured at the beginning (week 0 of the experiment start; before feeding the control feed and experimental feed), week 2 (week 2 of the experiment start; week 2 after feeding the control feed and experimental feed), or week 4 (week 4 of the experiment start; week 4 after feeding the control feed and experimental feed), and the results of the daily growth rate measurement at week 4 are shown in Figure 2.
[0147] As shown in Figure 2, the daily growth rate of the experimental group fed with HiLAB was measured to be higher, and it was confirmed that the lactic acid fermented product of black soldier fly larva extract (HiLAB) is effective for fish growth after undergoing the lactic acid fermentation process.
[0149] Example 5. Confirmation of intestinal microorganisms by ingestion of fermented black soldier fly extract
[0150] To confirm the intestinal microbial distribution at week 4 after the start of feeding for the control and experimental groups of Example 4-2 above, the intestines were aseptically excised from 9 trout of each group, washed three times with 0.75 (v / v)% physiological saline, and after removing intestinal contents resembling excrement, only the intestinal mucus was collected in a 1.5 mL tube and stored at -70°C. Each collected sample was incubated at 37°C for 2 days in a test tube containing tryptomen soya broth (TSB; Merck, Germany). 2 mL of the cultured sample was centrifuged at 9,000 rpm for 10 minutes to concentrate the bacteria. The concentrated bacterial genomic DNA was extracted using the QIAamp DNA Mini Kit (Qiagen, Italy). The extracted genomic DNA was diluted to a final concentration of 5 ng / μl, and a 16S rRNA library was constructed using 16S metagenomic Sequencing Library Preparation (Illumina). To amplify the 16S rDNA of bacteria, PCR was performed using Bakt_341F and Bakt_805R primers, which can identify most bacteria, to identify the V1-V2 (340-370 bp) and V3-V4 (440-460 bp) regions, and the primer information is shown in Table 7 below.

[0152] (In Table 7 above, N represents an arbitrary sequence as A, G, C, or T / U, W represents A or T / U, H represents A, C, or T / U, and V represents A, G, or C.) PCR was performed by mixing 2.5 μl (12.5 ng) of genomic DNA extracted from the control and experimental groups isolated above with 1 μm of each primer and 2x KAPA Hifi Hotstart Ready Mix (KAPA Bio, UK) premixture to make 25 μl. The PCR reaction was performed using an Agilent 2200 TapeStation (Agilent Tech, Italy) with denaturation at 95°C for 5 minutes, followed by 27 cycles of 95°C for 30 seconds, 55°C for 30 seconds, and 72°C for 30 seconds, and finally an extension step at 72°C for 5 minutes. The obtained PCR products were classified into V1-V2 (340-370 bp) and V3-V4 (440-460 bp), purified using the Agencourt AMPure XP kit (Beckman, Iatly), and a library was completed. The nucleotide sequences were analyzed using Illumina MiSeq against 19 strains notified by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (October 2020; Appendix 1-2~4) https: / / www.foodsafetykorea.go.kr / foodcode / 01_03.jsp?idx=12135) and non-notified strains Lactobacillus brevis and Leuconostoc mesentroides added to feed. The results are shown in Table 8 and Figure 3.

[0154] As shown in Table 8 above, in the control group of cherry salmon fed with the control feed for 4 weeks, none of the 21 strains of the control were identified in the intestinal microorganisms.
[0155] In contrast, it was confirmed that a total of 5 types of intestinal microorganisms were distributed in the intestines of the experimental group of mountain trout fed with the experimental samples for 4 weeks, consisting of 3 types of 19 types of lactic acid bacteria and 2 types of non-notified bacteria. Specifically, Lactococcus lactis, a lactic acid bacterium administered to HiLAB, accounted for the majority at 61.8%, and Enterococcus faecium accounted for 32.1%. The remaining 3 types were confirmed to be present as Lactobacillus plantarum (0.6%), Leuconostoc mesentroides (4.6%), and Lactobacillus brevis (0.9%), which were administered as notified bacteria.
[0157] Example 6. Confirmation of changes in fatty acids in cherry salmon due to consumption of fermented black soldier fly extract
[0158] Example 6-1. Measurement of unsaturated fatty acids in cherry salmon
[0159] The unsaturated fatty acid content in the control group and experimental group trout fed the feed in Example 4-2 above was measured.
[0160] Specifically, the flesh of the trout, with the internal organs removed, was collected and treated with a methanolic sodium hydroxide solution. Subsequently, a trifluoroborane methanol solution was added, and the mixture was heated to induce esterification. The resulting fatty acid esters were dissolved in isooctane and analyzed using gas chromatography (US / HP 6890, Aglient Technologies, Youido, Korea). Undecanoic acid was used as the standard solution. For the gas chromatography (GC) conditions, a silica capillary column (Omegawax 205, 0.25 μm film thickness) was used, with the injection port temperature set to 225°C and the detector temperature maintained at 285°C. The column temperature was raised from 100°C to 250°C and maintained for at least 15 minutes. The above process was repeated twice to analyze the fatty acid content, and the results are shown in Table 9 below. The measured content values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. The unit of the content values measured below is μg / g muscle weight, and the unit of all content values measured in Example 6 is μg / g muscle weight.

[0162] As shown in Table 9 above, both the control group and the experimental group were measured to have high levels of palmitic acid and oleic acid, with palmitic acid being measured to be higher in the control group and oleic acid being measured to be higher in the experimental group.
[0163] Example 6-2. Measurement of saturated and unsaturated fatty acid content in cherry salmon
[0164] Based on the fatty acid content measured in Example 6-1 above and the number of carbon chains presented in Table 9, the content of saturated fatty acids (fatty acids having one or more single bonds in the fatty acid chain; saturated fatty acid; SFA) and unsaturated fatty acids (fatty acids having one or more double bonds in the fatty acid chain; Unsaturated fatty acid; USFA) in the trout was measured separately, and the content of monounsaturated fatty acids (cases containing one double bond; monounsaturated fatty acids; MUFAs) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (fatty acids having two or more double bonds in the fatty acid chain; polyunsaturated fatty acid; PUFA) among the unsaturated fatty acids in the trout was also measured, and the results are shown in Figures 4 and 5, respectively.
[0165] As shown in Figure 4, the content of saturated fatty acids (SFA) was measured to be higher in the control group, and the content of unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) was measured to be higher in the experimental group, confirming that the content of unsaturated fatty acids was higher in the trout that consumed feed containing HiLAB.
[0166] In addition, as shown in Figure 5, the content of both monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids was measured to be high in the experimental group, confirming that the content of both types of unsaturated fatty acids was higher in trout that consumed feed containing HiLAB.
[0167] Example 6-3. Measurement of Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-9 Unsaturated Fatty Acid Content in Cherry Salmon
[0168] The content of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 related unsaturated fatty acids in cherry salmon was measured in substantially the same way as in Example 6-1 above, and the results are shown in Figure 6.
[0169] As shown in Figure 6, the content of the anti-inflammatory omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids α-linolenic acid (ALA) (C18:3), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) (C20:5), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (C22:6) was all measured to be high in the experimental group, the content of the omega-6 unsaturated fatty acids α-linolenic acid (C18:2) and eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:3) was measured to be high in the experimental group, the content of arachidonic acid (C20:4) was measured to be similar in the control and experimental groups, and the content of the anti-inflammatory omega-9 unsaturated fatty acids oleic acid (C18:1) and erucic acid (C22:1) was also all measured to be high in the experimental group. Based on the above measurement results, it was confirmed that the content of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 unsaturated fatty acids was higher in cherry salmon fed a diet containing HiLAB, or was equivalent to or greater than that in cherry salmon fed a diet not containing HiLAB.
