1-2. Vibrio enteritis attack test
[110]
The attack test of enterophilus Vibrio bacteria against shrimp was divided into two total. In the case of the Vibrio strain, the AHPND (EMS) induced strain isolated in Vietnam in 2013 was used for the test. In the case of the attack test, the feed composition of the example was supplied to the shrimp for 2 weeks, and then the same weight (average weight: 2.32 g) of shrimp was placed in 4 repetitions at 96 per group. The bacteria were cultured for 24 hours at 30 o C and 150 rpm using TSB + medium, and in 20 110 L acrylic water tanks (working volume 72.5 L) 2 x 10 9 CFU concentration (OD 1.7) of Vibrio bacteria suspension 30 ml was immersed. The mortality and swimming status of the shrimp were checked every 1 hour after immersion, and 95% water exchange was performed after 8 hours. The test feed was divided into three times a day (8:30, 13:30, and 18:30 hours) and limited supply (10 to 12% of the fish's weight), and mortality was observed for 70 hours. The results are shown in Table 4 below.
[111]
[Table 4]
Treatment Survival (%)
Trial
Control 1 50.0±16.0
Control 2 49.0±23.2
BS Group 1 67.7±28.9
[112]
As shown in Table 4, BS group 1 provided with a feed composition comprising Bacillus subtilis selected in Preparation Example 1 showed a higher survival rate compared to controls 1 and 2 in an attack test for shrimp of Vibrio Enteritis.
[113]
In addition, as shown in Fig. 1, in both tests, the movement of the shrimp became dull immediately after immersion of the Vibrio bacteria in both tests, and it was observed that the shrimp sinked in the bottom of the tank without swimming, and feed feeding was also active. Did not do it. At 8 hours after immersion, sudden death began to occur, and it was confirmed that the survival rate of BS group 1 was higher than that of the control group 1 or 2 by 17% or more.
[114]
[115]
1-3. Sample collection method and histopathological analysis method
[116]
Hepatic pancreas was isolated by randomly selecting 2 shrimps per group at the start (before infection), middle (infection), and end of the attack test for Shrimp of Vibrio Enteritis. Some of the isolated hepatic pancreas were stored directly in ethyl alcohol (100%) for quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis, and some were fixed in Davidson's fixative for 24 hours for histopathological examination and then ethyl alcohol (70%). Stored in.
[117]
More specifically, histopathological analysis was performed in the following manner. In order to minimize the destruction of the isolated liver pancreatic tissue, Davidson's fixative was injected into the liver pancreas of shrimp using a 1 ml syringe immediately after sampling in a water bath, and then separated. Then, it was fixed in a 1.5 ml Eppendorf tube containing Davison's fixative for 24 hours, stored in ethyl alcohol (70%), and used for analysis. After the fixation was completed organs were cut to a thickness of a shape (about 2 to 3 mm) suitable for tissue sample preparation, they were placed in a cassette and subjected to tissue treatment for 13 hours. Sections generated by cutting to a thickness of about 4 μm were collected using a brush, attached to the slides without wrinkles, and left in the air for about 5 minutes, followed by H&E staining. The stained slides were photographed 200 times with a microscope-specific program (TCapture, Tucen Photonics) using a phase contrast microscope (BX50, Olympus). Thereafter, qPCR analysis was performed on the amount of AHPND toxin in the sampled liver pancreas.
[118]
The results are shown in FIG. 2. Here, the lower the Ct value, the higher the amount of toxins.
[119]
AHPND toxin was not detected in all groups in the hepatic pancreas sampled before challenge test (0h), and AHPND toxin was detected in all test groups in the hepatic pancreas sampled at 10 hours when the number of dead individuals was the most. However, the BS group 1 provided with the feed composition containing Bacillus subtilis according to the present application showed significantly higher Ct values ​​compared to the controls 1 and 2, and in the liver pancreas sampled at 24 hours, the AHPND toxin in the BS group It was confirmed to detect the least. In addition, at the end of the challenge (193h), no AHPND toxin was detected in BS group 1 and control group 2.
[120]
In addition, the results of histopathological analysis of the hepatopancreas are shown in FIG. 3.
[121]
Normal tissue morphology was observed in all groups of hepatic pancreas sampled before challenge test (0h). The hepatic pancreas sampled after 10 hours was most severely damaged in the control group 1, and tissue necrosis was observed in the control group 2 and the BS group 1 as well. Hepatic pancreas sampled after 24 hours was more inflammatory than tissue necrosis caused by AHPND toxin. At the end of the challenge (193h), since 100% mortality had already occurred (37h) in control 1, sampling was not possible, and some inflammatory cells were observed in control 2 and BS groups.
[122]
From the above results, the feed composition containing Bacillus subtilis according to the present application can not only improve the disease resistance of shrimp against Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection, but also significantly lower the amount of AHPND toxin in the liver pancreas of shrimp. It was confirmed that it can be.

As shown in Table 6 and Figure 4, shrimp of all groups fed for 8 weeks showed a growth rate of about 7000% or more compared to before feeding. In particular, the final average weight of the BS group 1 provided with the feed composition of Example 1 and the BS group 2 provided with the feed composition of Example 2 was 15.7% and 16.7% higher than the final average weight of the control group 1. The final average weight of the BS+BP group 1 provided with the feed composition of Example 3, the BS+BP group 2 provided with the feed composition of Example 4 and the BS+BP+BL group 1 provided with the feed composition of Example 5 was the control group. Compared to the final average weight of 1, it was 7.8%, 15.6% and 8.8% higher, respectively. In addition, in the daily growth rate, BS group 1 and BS group 2 were 3.4% and 4.1% higher than that of control group 1, respectively. The daily growth rates of the BS+BP group 1, the BS+BP group 2, and the BS+BP+BL group 1 were 2.4%, 3.4%, and 2.5% higher than that of the control group 1, respectively. The feed efficiency of BS group 1 and BS group 2 was improved by 27.5% and 26.1%, respectively, compared to the feed efficiency of control group 1. The feed efficiency of BS+BP group 1, BS+BP group 2, and BS+BP+BL group 1 was 11.1%, 20.9%, and 13.1% higher than that of control group 1, respectively. However, there was no significant difference in the survival rate of shrimp in all groups.
[144]
[145]
2-2. Sample collection
[146]
The test shrimp were weighed every two weeks, and all test shrimp were fasted 18 hours before the measurement to reduce the stress of the test shrimp. After the final weight measurement, 7 shrimps per tank were randomly selected and anesthetized in ice water, and then hemolymp was collected using a syringe treated with ALSEVER'S solution. The collected hemolymp was used for the analysis of macrophage activity (NBT; nitroblue-tetrazolium activity), and the sample from which plasma was separated by a centrifuge (800 g, 10 minutes, 4°C) was used for non-specific immunity analysis. For the collection of feces of shrimp for digestibility analysis, the feed and foreign matter remaining in the tank were cleaned through siphoning and water exchange 30 minutes after feeding, and the waste excreted from 3 hours was collected with a siphon. The collected fraction was washed with distilled water, filtered using filter paper, and stored in a -40°C low temperature freezer until used as a sample for analysis.
[147]
[148]
2-3. Statistical analysis
[149]
The batch of the experimental feed was carried out by a complete randomized design, and the growth and analysis results (SPSS Version 18.0) were statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA using the program. For the significant difference between the data values, the significance ( P <0.05) between the means was compared using Duncan's multiple range test . Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (mean ± SD), and percentage data were calculated as arcsine deformation values ​​and statistically analyzed.
[150]
[151]
2-4. General component analysis
[152]
Analysis of the test feed and the general components of the powder is carried out according to the AOAC (2005) method. Moisture is atmospheric pressure heating and drying method (125℃, 3h), the raw material is the direct conversation furnace method (550℃, 4h), and the protein is an automatic crude protein analyzer (Kejltec system 2300, Sweden), and fat was analyzed by Folch et al. It was analyzed according to the method of (1957), and is shown in Table 7.

2-5. Non-specific immunity related analysis
[158]
2-5-1. NBT (Nitroblue tetrazolium) activity assay
[159]
To measure the amount of oxidative radicals produced by neutrophils during a respiratory explosion, Zhang et al. (2013) was applied.
[160]
Specifically, 50 μl of hemolymph was first mixed with a 200 μl HBSS (Hank's balanced salt solution) solution, and then reacted at 25°C. After 30 minutes, 100 μl of zymosan (0.1% Hank's solution) was added and reacted at 37° C. for 2 hours. After 100 μl of NBT solution (0.3%) was added, it was reacted at 37°C for 2 hours. 600 μl 100% methanol was added and centrifuged for 10 minutes (6500 rpm), the supernatant was discarded, washed 3 times with 100 μl 70% methanol, and dried for 5 minutes. Then, 700 μl of 2M KOH and 800 μl of DMSO were added, and the absorbance was measured at 620 nm.
[161]
[162]
2-5-2. Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity assay
[163]
To analyze the GPx activity in serum, a GPx kit (Biovision, Inc. California) was used.
[164]
Specifically, for Cumenehydroperoxide, a reaction mixture in which peroxide substrate (ROOH), glutathione reductase (GSSG-R) and NADPH (b-Nicotinamide Adenine Denucleotide Phosphate, Reduced) were mixed was used. First, 50 μl of a hemolymph sample was put into a microplate, 40 μl of the reaction mixture was added, and reacted for 15 minutes. Then, 10 μl of cumenehydroperoxide was added, and absorbance was measured at 340 nm. After 5 minutes, the absorbance was measured again at 340 nm, and the GPx activity was calculated as nmol/min/ml.
[165]
[166]
2-5-3. Lysozyme activity assay
[167]
Lysozyme activity assay was performed by Swain et al. (2007) was analyzed based on the method.
[168]
Specifically, lysozyme is one of the antimicrobial enzymes belonging to a non-specific (innate) immune response, and is an enzyme that exhibits non-specific antimicrobial activity against various bacteria rather than a specific antibacterial activity against specific bacteria. The antibacterial mechanism against pathogens exhibits antimicrobial action by destroying the bacterial cell wall by hydrolyzing the β-1,4-glucoside bond of peptidoglycan, a component of the bacterial cell wall. Lysozyme is particularly excellent in antibacterial effect against Gram-positive bacteria. Due to this mechanism, lysozyme activity is widely used as an analysis item to measure the non-specific immune response in shrimp including fish. Increased lysozyme activity in the hemolymph and tissue of the can be confirmed, and this result is interpreted as a result indicating an increase in non-specific immune response or an increase in immunity of fish (shrimp).
[169]
[170]
2-5-4. Phenoloxidase (PO) activity assay
[171]
PO activity assay was performed by Hernandez-Lopez et al. (1996) was analyzed based on the method.
[172]
Specifically, Phenoloxidase is an enzyme that plays a very important role in the defense mechanism of crustaceans. It exists in the form of prophenoloxidase in blood cells and is activated by the Prophenoloxidase activating system. Activated phenoloxidase produces opsonin, promotes phagocytic activity of blood cells and coating action against foreign antigens, and participates in the blood coagulation reaction. Therefore, phenoloxidase activity in hemolymph is used as an important indicator of innate immunity in shrimp.
[173]
[174]
2-5-5. Superoxide dismutases (SOD) activity assay
[175]
SOD activity was analyzed using the SOD assay kit (Sigma-aldrich, 19160, St. Louis, USA).
[176]
Specifically, after adding 20 μl of a radical detector to a 96-well plate, 10 μl of blood samples were added each. Thereafter, 20 μl xanthine oxidase was added and reacted for 20 minutes, and absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader (Themo).
[177]
[178]
2-5-6. Antiproteases activity assay
[179]
Antiprotease activity in hemolymph was analyzed based on the analysis method of Ellis (1990).
[180]
Specifically, 20 μl of Hemolymph and 20 μl of a standard trypsin solution (Type II-S, from porcine pancreas, Sigma-aldrich, A2765, St. Louis, USA) were mixed, and then incubated at 22° C. for 10 minutes. Add 200 μl of phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.0) and 250 μl of azocasein (2%) (Sigma-Aldrich), incubate at 22° C. for 1 hour, and then add 500 μl of trichloro acetic acid (10%) (TCA) again. And incubated at 22° C. for 30 minutes. The cultured solution was centrifuged (6000 g , 5 minutes) and 100 μl was dispensed into a 96-well plate, and then 100 μl of NaOH (1 N) was added to measure the absorbance at 430 nm using a microplate reader. .

2-6. Water quality analysis and no exchange experiment
[193]
During the 8-week feeding test period, samples of breeding water were collected from each tank once every 5 days and analyzed for water quality. Samples were collected at the same location in each tank, and dissolved oxygen (DO), salinity, pH, and ammonia (Ammonium; NH 4 + ) concentration were measured. DO was measured using a Thermo Scientific Orion Star A216 Benchtop Meter (Thermoscientific), and salinity was measured using a Master Refractometer (ATAGO). The pH was measured using Seven Compact (METTLER TOLEDO). NH 4 + is described in Verdouw et al. (1978) was used for analysis.

Specifically, the test feed and the minute sample were incinerated for 4 hours in an incinerator (550°C), and the obtained sample was used for analysis. First, in order to oxidize chromium oxide in mono-chromate form, 5 to 10 mg of a minute sample was weighed and transferred to a glass test tube. 4 ml of perchloric reagent (HClO 4 ) was added to the glass test tube containing the sample . Perchloric reagent (70%) was prepared by mixing 200 ml of nitric acid in 100 ml of distilled water, cooling, and then mixing 200 ml of 70% perchloric acid. The sample and the glass test tube to which the perchloric reagent was added were placed on a heating plate, heated at 300° C. for 15 minutes, and then allowed to cool at room temperature. The sample after the pretreatment was transferred to a 50 ml glass flask and quantified to 25 ml with 3rd distilled water. Then, the absorbance was measured at 350 nm using a spectrophotometer (Beckman DU-730). As for the measured absorbance, the chromium oxide content of the sample was calculated using a standard equation made of a standard solution pretreated as in sample analysis.
