- Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) poisoning in humans and fish represents a significant global problem. Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) is a widely used probiotic in aquaculture. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of B. cereus in ameliorating Cd-induced toxicity in mirror carp. The biosorption rate of Zn for the B. cereus in 85.99% was significantly more than five strains. All fishes were exposed for 30 days to dietary ZnCl2 (30mg/kg), waterborne Cd (1 mg/L), and/or dietary Zn-enriched B. cereus (Zn 30mg/kg and 107cfu/g B. cereus). At 15 and 30 days, the fishes were sampled, and bioaccumulation, antioxidant activity, and intestinal microbiota were measured. Waterborne Cd exposure caused marked alterations in the composition of the microbiota. Dietary supplementation with Zn-enriched B. cereus can reduce the changes in the composition of intestinal microbiota in Cd exposure and decrease the pathogenic bacteria of Flavobacterium and Pseudomonas in Zn-enriched B. cereus groups. The results obtained indicate that Zn-enriched B. cereus can provide a significant protective effect on the toxicity of cadmium by inhibiting alterations in the levels of bioaccumulation and antioxidant enzyme including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), total antioxidant (T-AOC), and malonaldehyde (MDA). Our results suggest that administration of Zn-enriched B. cereus has the potential to combat Cd toxicity in mirror carp.
