What is the main function of Bacillus licheniformis?

The shape and arrangement of Bacillus licheniformis cells are rod-shaped and solitary, which can adjust the flora imbalance to achieve the purpose of treatment, and can promote the body to produce antibacterial active substances and kill pathogenic bacteria. It can produce anti-active substances, and has a unique mechanism of biological oxygen capture, which can inhibit the growth and reproduction of pathogenic bacteria.

Bacillus licheniformis is a gram-positive thermophilic bacterium commonly found in soil. The bacterium is also found in the feathers of birds, especially ground-dwelling birds (such as finches) and aquatic birds (such as ducks), especially on their thorax and back. The optimum temperature for enzyme secretion was 37°C. It may exist in spore form to withstand harsh environments; in good conditions, it can exist in a vegetative state. The bacteria can adjust the imbalance of flora to achieve the purpose of treatment, and can prompt the body to produce antibacterial active substances and kill pathogenic bacteria. It can produce anti-active substances, and has a unique mechanism of biological oxygen capture, which can inhibit the growth and reproduction of pathogenic bacteria.

main effect:

1. Antagonize animal pathogenic bacteria and maintain and adjust gastrointestinal microecological balance

It can produce a variety of antibacterial substances in the process of growth and metabolism, and has a strong antagonistic effect on Staphylococcus and Candida albicans. After entering the stomach, this product can quickly colonize and multiply, consume oxygen, form a hypoxic environment, and create favorable conditions for the growth and reproduction of physiological anaerobic bacteria such as Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, Peptostreptococcus and other beneficial microorganisms in the stomach, thereby Inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, adjust the flora imbalance, and restore gastrointestinal function.

2. Produce a variety of enzymes and improve the activity of animal digestive enzymes

Bacillus licheniformis can produce a variety of active enzymes, such as protease, amylase, lipase, pectinase, glucanase, cellulase, etc., and can also produce a variety of enzymatic factors to enhance the activity of animal digestive enzymes, Promote the growth of farmed animals and improve feed utilization.

3. Enhance the immune function of the animal body

This product can enhance the body's specific and non-specific immune responses, promote the phagocytic activity of macrophages, and improve the ability to resist infection.

degrade feathers

Scientists are using the bacteria to degrade feathers for agricultural purposes. Feathers contain a lot of indigestible protein, and researchers hope to use waste feathers to make cheap and nutritious "feather meals" through fermentation of Bacillus licheniformis for livestock.

At the same time, ecological studies on the relationship between Bacillus licheniformis and feather color are also underway. Feather-degrading bacteria play an important role in moulting and the development of feather color.

Bio laundry detergent

The protease used in biological laundry powder is obtained by culturing Shuntian Bacillus licheniformis. The bacteria are well adapted to alkaline environments, so the proteases it produces can also withstand high pH environments (such as laundry detergents). In fact, the pH optimum for this protease is between 9 and 10. In laundry detergents, it is able to "digest" (and thus remove) soils made up of proteins. Using this laundry detergent eliminates the need for hot water, reducing energy consumption and reducing the potential risk of shrinkage and discoloration.
