  • An attempt was made to investigate the effects of quercetin(QE) added in the diet on the growth performance, serum and liver antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microflora of Epinephelus akaara. The QE was added to the basal feed at the respective concentrations of 0(FM), 0.60(QE1), 0.12(QE2), 0.18(QE3) and 0.24(QE4) mmol · kg-1, and used to feed E. akaara with its initial weight(150 ± 5.17) g for 56 days. The growth performance, and the antioxidant enzyme activities of serum and liver were measured, and the intestinal flora structure were analyzed by using high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the growth rate(WGR)tended to increase and then decrease with the increase of QE in the diet, but was significantly higher than that of the control group(P < 0.05), and was the highest in the QE2 group. Compared with the FM group,supplementation of QE in the feed significantly increased the activities of serum glutathione peroxidase(GPX)activity(P < 0.05) and reduced the content of malondialdehyde(MDA)(P < 0.05). An appropriate addition of QE significantly increased the activities of liver enzymes such as SOD, CAT, and GPX(P < 0.05), and reduced the content of MDA in the liver(P < 0.05). Compared with the FM group, the number of operational taxonomic units(OTUs) in each QE addition group showed an upward trend, and increased significantly in the QE3 and QE4groups(P < 0.05). Alpha diversity showed that compared to the control group, the QE3 and QE4 groups showed a significantly upward trend in the ACE, Chao1, Shannon index, and a significantly downward trend in the Simpson index(P < 0.05). Beta diversity analysis showed significant differences between the QE3 and QE4 groups and the FM group(P < 0.05). Compared with the FM group, the relative abundance of Fusobacteriota in each group with QE addition was significantly reduced(P < 0.05); the relative abundance of genera Staphylococcus and Desulfovibrio decreased significantly(P < 0.05), while the relative abundance of genus Turicibacter increased significantly(P < 0.05). In summary, adding of QE at a rate of 1.2-2.4 mmol·kg-1 to the diet can improve the growth performance and antioxidant enzyme activity of E. akaara, and enhance its intestinal microbial diversity and intestinal microbiota composition.

Effects of quercetin on growth performance, antioxidant capacity and intestinal microflora of Epinephelus akaara

doi: 10.15886/j.cnki.rdswxb.20240097

Abstract: An attempt was made to investigate the effects of quercetin(QE) added in the diet on the growth performance, serum and liver antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microflora of Epinephelus akaara. The QE was added to the basal feed at the respective concentrations of 0(FM), 0.60(QE1), 0.12(QE2), 0.18(QE3) and 0.24(QE4) mmol · kg-1, and used to feed E. akaara with its initial weight(150 ± 5.17) g for 56 days. The growth performance, and the antioxidant enzyme activities of serum and liver were measured, and the intestinal flora structure were analyzed by using high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the growth rate(WGR)tended to increase and then decrease with the increase of QE in the diet, but was significantly higher than that of the control group(P < 0.05), and was the highest in the QE2 group. Compared with the FM group,supplementation of QE in the feed significantly increased the activities of serum glutathione peroxidase(GPX)activity(P < 0.05) and reduced the content of malondialdehyde(MDA)(P < 0.05). An appropriate addition of QE significantly increased the activities of liver enzymes such as SOD, CAT, and GPX(P < 0.05), and reduced the content of MDA in the liver(P < 0.05). Compared with the FM group, the number of operational taxonomic units(OTUs) in each QE addition group showed an upward trend, and increased significantly in the QE3 and QE4groups(P < 0.05). Alpha diversity showed that compared to the control group, the QE3 and QE4 groups showed a significantly upward trend in the ACE, Chao1, Shannon index, and a significantly downward trend in the Simpson index(P < 0.05). Beta diversity analysis showed significant differences between the QE3 and QE4 groups and the FM group(P < 0.05). Compared with the FM group, the relative abundance of Fusobacteriota in each group with QE addition was significantly reduced(P < 0.05); the relative abundance of genera Staphylococcus and Desulfovibrio decreased significantly(P < 0.05), while the relative abundance of genus Turicibacter increased significantly(P < 0.05). In summary, adding of QE at a rate of 1.2-2.4 mmol·kg-1 to the diet can improve the growth performance and antioxidant enzyme activity of E. akaara, and enhance its intestinal microbial diversity and intestinal microbiota composition.
