06 Feed trace elements

6.1 Pay attention to new forms of iodine and selenium sources, and explore their functional effects beyond nutritional effects. Whether it is iodine or iodophor, they are highly irritating and are only for external use and cannot be added to feed.

6.2 The new form of iodine (CHE-I) is based on organic iodine, and after special processing, it has heat stability and storage stability in feed. The use of CHE-I (10ppm) in the feed is beneficial to the intestinal villi and can reduce the damage of the intestinal villi.

6.3 CHE-I in duck test:

①When the dosage of CHE-I is low (1-4ppm), it has no significant effect on the cecum Firmicutes, but when the dosage is high (8ppm ppm), it can reduce the number of the cecum Firmicutes, and has the effect of inhibiting bacteria.

②Compared with colistin 40ppm, CHE-I significantly increased the overall body weight and 1-14d daily gain of meat ducks, and 4-8ppm significantly decreased the whole-process feed-to-meat ratio by 0.09 (1.87→1.78).

③ Adding different levels of CHE-I had statistical differences in energy conversion, nucleotide transport and metabolism, post-translational modification, and protein turnover.

④ With the increase of CHE-I supplementation level, the contents of acetic acid and propionic acid in the cecal contents of meat ducks also gradually increased.

6.6 Key words of innovation: special process organic iodine, nano-selenium compound, solidified intestinal barrier.

07 Feed Antimicrobial Peptides

Initially, when people were studying the immune mechanism of the North American cerevisiae, they found that after the diapause pupae were induced by external stimuli, the hemolymph produced polypeptide substances with antibacterial effect. This kind of antibacterial polypeptide was named Cecropins. In the years after 1980, people successively discovered and isolated polypeptides with antibacterial activity from bacteria, fungi, amphibians, insects, higher plants, mammals and even humans. Because this kind of active peptides has broad-spectrum and high-efficiency bactericidal activity against bacteria, it is named "antibacterialpepitides, ABP", which is translated into antibacterial peptides in Chinese.

7.1 Scientific evaluation of antimicrobial peptides: clear ingredients, clear structure, and scientific detection methods (identification of antibacterial activity, immune activity). Liquid phase is the most practical method for the detection of antimicrobial peptides, and it is also the core technology for stable quality.

7.2 The MIC value is the only indicator to determine the usage amount, and the actual usage amount should be slightly greater than the MIC value.

7.3 Enterobacitracin is currently one of the more comprehensive and in-depth research on antibacterial peptides in the world, and there are also subtilisin and so on.

7.4 The principle of replacing antibiotics is to replace with the same mechanism, and to replace with the same effect.

08 Pig farm liquid feeding

8.1 Liquid feeding is widely used in Europe. With the banning of antibiotics more common, there are four advantages in general: cost reduction, efficiency increase, health and environmental protection. It can improve production performance, improve nutrient utilization, improve the development of the digestive tract and increase the activity of digestive enzymes.

8.2 Liquid feed form: ① Newborn and weaned piglets generally use liquid milk + creep feed; ② The integrated water-feed ratio of nursery and fattening = 2.5:1-3:1. ③ Reserve, empty pregnant and pregnant sows: liquid feeding, water-feed ratio = 3:1. ④ Lactating sows: liquid feeding, water-feed ratio = 2.5-3:1.

8.3 There are three common processes for liquid fermented feed: natural fermentation, directed fermentation, and grain-only fermentation.

8.4 Liquid feeding issues to be further resolved:

① Systematic evaluation of liquid feeding effects of different pig breeds and herds.

②Suitable for processing and evaluation of different raw materials.

③ Improvement of evaluation indicators and system of bio-fermented feed.

9 β-glucan for livestock and poultry

9.1 What is immune training?

The currently generally accepted view that only adaptive immunity can establish immune memory is being challenged. More and more studies have shown that innate immune cells such as monocytes, macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells can generate a new immune response with non-specific memory under the stimulation of exogenous infection to deal with secondary Homologous or heterologous infection, this process is called trained immunity. It is characterized by the host's hyperresponsive, nonspecific immune "memory" for reinfection; moreover, this process does not rely on classical T and B cell adaptive immunity , but driven by epigenetic modifications and immunometabolism. The proposal of training immunity is an extension of the principle of immunology, which provides a new direction for the study of immunological mechanisms (Zhang Xu, et al. 2019).

Training immunity is a unique characteristic of beta-glucan, but not all sources of beta-glucan are created equal.

New technology keywords: high concentration, yeast purification, β-1,3-1,6-D-glucan.

10 Feed fat predigestion

10.1 What is predigestion?

Under the in vitro conditions of animals, by simulating the conditions required for digestion in animals, feed or feed components are decomposed or degraded into small molecules or small particles through fermentation, enzymatic hydrolysis, emulsification and other processes. Its purpose is to improve feed components and improve feed digestion and utilization.

10.2 The necessity of fat predigestion. It is a common practice to add a large amount of fat (generally about 5%-8%) to meat and poultry feed, but affected by many factors, incomplete digestion of fat will lead to waste and even cause health problems, emulsification in the body (adding bile acid, phospholipid, etc. to the feed) There are defects of increased energy consumption and incomplete emulsification, so in vitro pre-digestion has been paid more and more attention.

10.3 Essence of oil predigestion: to turn ordinary oil into predigested oil and increase the number of single and mixed micelles in the body.

10.4 How to achieve fat pre-digestion? The system of pre-digester + oil + water, under the action of pre-digestion equipment (3000 rpm homogeneous), turns the fat particles of oil into emulsified fat particles.

10.5 Quality evaluation indicators of predigested oil: ① HLB value 12-14; ② oil particle size; ③ chyle maintenance time; ④ fat oxidation rancidity degree. However, Lizhimei is excellent in all indicators of quality evaluation after pre-digested oil.

10.6 Grease predigester --- Lizhimei, the test conclusions in meat ducks:

①Compared with the direct addition group and the commercial emulsifier group (internal digestion), the effect of Lizhimei predigested oil was the best, followed by the Lizhimei direct addition group. Whether the emulsifier is directly added or pre-digested fat, the effect of duck oil is better than that of mixed oil

②Compared with undigested fat, adding predigested fat to the basic diet can significantly increase (P<0.05) the weight of meat ducks, and the feed-to-meat ratio can be improved by 0.06.

③Compared with the 6% oil group, the predigested oil saves more than 0.6% of feed oil consumption, which can save more than 50kcal/kgME.

10.7 Trial of Lizhimei in broiler chickens: Add Lizhimei, reduce the amount of fat by 10%, and have no significant impact on production performance.

12.1 Degradation mechanism of aflatoxin

The decomposing enzyme acts on the difuran ring 8,9 ene ether bond of the toxic group of aflatoxin B1 to decompose it into non-toxic substances.

12.2 Degradation mechanism of vomitoxin

The hydroxyl group at the 3-position of DON carbon is first oxidized to form 3-keto-DON, which reduces the toxicity by 10 times, and then undergoes a reduction reaction to form 3-isomeric-DON, which reduces the toxicity by 1182 times.
