Reduction of soybean meal non-starch polysaccharides and ?-galactosides by solid-state fermentation using cellulolytic bacteria obtained from different environments.

ABSTRACT: Soybean meal (SBM) is an important protein source in animal feed. However, the levels of SBM inclusion are restricted in some animal species by the presence of antinutritional factors (ANFs), including non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) and ?-galactosides (GOSs). The aim of this study was to reduce the soybean meal NSPs and GOSs by solid-state fermentation (SSF) using a combination of cellulolytic bacteria isolated from different environments (termites, earthworms, corn silage and bovine ruminal content). To analyse the key enzymatic activities, the isolates were grown in minimal media containing NSPs extracted from SBM. The selected bacterial strains belonged to the genera Streptomyces, Cohnella and Cellulosimicrobium. SSF resulted in a reduction of nearly 24% in the total NSPs, 83% of stachyose and 69% of raffinose and an increase in the protein content. These results suggest that cellulolytic bacteria-based SSF processing facilitates SBM nutritional improvement. In addition, the use of fermented SBM in animal diets can be recommended.

Project description:This study was conducted to investigate the effect of soybean meal (SM) and soluble starch (SS) on biogenic amine production and microbial diversity using in vitro ruminal fermentation. Treatments comprised of incubation of 2 g of mixture (expressed as 10 parts) containing different ratios of SM to SS as: 0:0, 10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7, or 0:10. In vitro ruminal fermentation parameters were determined at 0, 12, 24, and 48 h of incubation while the biogenic amine and microbial diversity were determined at 48 h of incubation. Treatment with highest proportion of SM had higher (p<0.05) gas production than those with higher proportions of SS. Samples with higher proportion of SS resulted in lower pH than those with higher proportion of SM after 48 h of incubation. The largest change in NH3-N concentration from 0 to 48 h was observed on all SM while the smallest was observed on exclusive SS. Similarly, exclusive SS had the lowest NH3-N concentration among all groups after 24 h of incubation. Increasing methane (CH4) concentrations were observed with time, and CH4 concentrations were higher (p<0.05) with greater proportions of SM than SS. Balanced proportion of SM and SS had the highest (p<0.05) total volatile fatty acid (TVFA) while propionate was found highest in higher proportion of SS. Moreover, biogenic amine (BA) was higher (p<0.05) in samples containing greater proportions of SM. Histamines, amine index and total amines were highest in exclusive SM followed in sequence mixtures with increasing proportion of SS (and lowered proportion of SM) at 48 h of incubation. Nine dominant bands were identified by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and their identity ranged from 87% to 100% which were mostly isolated from rumen and feces. Bands R2 (uncultured bacterium clone RB-5E1) and R4 (uncultured rumen bacterium clone L7A_C10) bands were found in samples with higher proportions of SM while R3 (uncultured Firmicutes bacterium clone NI_52), R7 (Selenomonas sp. MCB2), R8 (Selenomonas ruminantium gene) and R9 (Selenomonas ruminantium strain LongY6) were found in samples with higher proportions of SS. Different feed ratios affect rumen fermentation in terms of pH, NH3-N, CH4, BA, volatile fatty acid and other metabolite concentrations and microbial diversity. Balanced protein and carbohydrate ratios are needed for rumen fermentation.

Project description:Substantial annual economic loss in livestock production is caused by antinutritional factors in soybean meal and corn mixed substrates, which can be degraded by microbial fermentation. Although considerable efforts have been made to explain the effects of fermentation on soybean meal and corn-based feed, the dynamics of the physicochemical characteristics, microbiota, and metabolic functions of soybean meal and corn mixed substrates during solid-state fermentation remain unclear. Here, multiple physicochemical analyses combined with high-throughput sequencing were performed to reveal the dynamic changes that occur during a novel two-stage solid-state fermentation process. Generally, inoculated bacteria rapidly proliferated in the initial 12-h aerobic fermentation (P = 0.002). Notably, most nutritional changes occurred during 12 to 24 h compared to 0 to 12 h. Second-stage anaerobic fermentation increased the bacterial abundance and lactic acid content (P < 0.00). Bacillus spp., Enterococcus spp., and Pseudomonas spp. were predominantly involved in the maturation of the fermented mixed substrates (P < 0.05). Additionally, the available phosphorus exhibited the greatest interaction with the microbial community structure. Cellular processes and environmental information processing might be the main metabolic processes of the microbiota during this fermentation. An in vivo model further evaluated the growth-promoting effects of the fermented products. These results characterized the dynamic changes that occur during two-stage solid-state fermentation and provided potential references for additional interventions to further improve the effectiveness and efficiency of solid-state fermentation of feed.IMPORTANCE Solid-state fermentation (SSF) plays pivotal roles not only in human food but also farm animal diets. Soybean meal (SBM) and corn account for approximately 70% of the global feed consumption. However, the nutritional value of conventional SBM and corn mixed substrates (MS) is limited by antinutritional factors, causing substantial economic loss in livestock production. Although emerging studies have reported that SSF can improve the nutritional value of SBM-based substrates, the dynamic changes in the physicochemical features, microbiota, and metabolic functions of MS during SSF remain poorly understood, limiting further investigation. To provide insights into the dynamics of the physicochemical characteristics and the complex microbiome during the two-stage SSF of MS, multiple physicochemical analyses combined with high-throughput sequencing were applied here. These novel insights shed light on the complex changes that occur in the nutrition and microbiome during two-stage SSF of MS and are of great value for industrial feed-based practices and metabolomic research on SSF ecosystems.

Project description:BackgroundCottonseed meal (CSM) is the main by-product of the cottonseed oil extraction process with high protein content, which is an important protein source for feed industry. However, CSM contains free gossypol (FG), a toxic substance that is detrimental to animal health and greatly limits its application. Microbial fermentation is currently considered to be one of the most effective methods to reduce FG and other anti-nutritional factors in CSM. Previously, yeast and bacteria species are used for degradation of FG in CSM, but showing less detoxification efficiency. Bacillus coagulans combines the properties of both lactic acid bacteria and Bacillus, producing both lactic acid and spores, and is considered a potential probiotic. In this study, we aimed to evaluate and optimize the effect of the solid-state fermentation process using a Bacillus coagulans to gossypol removal contained cottonseed meal.Results36 B. coagulans strains were isolated and found to have the ability to remove free gossypol. Through the evaluation of strains and optimization of fermentation conditions including fermentation temperature, ratio of material to water, inoculation amount, fermentation time and pH, we have established a solid-state fermentation process using a Bacillus coagulans strain S17 on CSM substrate with 1:1 of the material-to-water ratio, 15% (v/w) seed inoculation, 2% expanded corn flour, 1% bran, and 0.3%-0.8% metal irons at 40 °C for 52 h. After fermentation, the FG content in CSM was reduced from 923.80 to 167.90 mg/kg with 81.83% detoxification efficiency. Meanwhile, the crude protein content in CSM increased from 47.98 to 52.82%, and importantly, the spore concentration of strain S17 reached 1.68 × 1010 CFU/g dry material.ConclusionThe study showed that B. coagulans have the potential strong ability to degrade free gossypol through cottonseed meal fermentation. This study presents a feasible process for improving the resource utilization rate and nutritional value of CSM via solid-state fermentation through B. coagulans S17.
