摘要：Zn is an essential trace element required for maintaining normal growth and development. Zn deficiency can cause growth retardation and reproductive system dysplasia, while Zn supplementation for treating Zn deficiency requires the use of high-quality Zn preparations. In this study,
Bifidobacterium longum CCFM1195 was screened for its high Zn enrichment capacity, and the effects of different Zn supplementation regimens and doses on the growth and development of rats after Zn supplementation were investigated by supplementing Zn-deficient rat pups with different doses of various Zn supplements (ZnO, CCFM1195 + ZnO, and Zn-enriched CCFM1195). It was shown that the bioavailability of Zn was positively correlated with indicators of recovery after Zn supplementation, with Zn-enriched CCFM1195 having the best effect, followed by CCFM1195 + ZnO, while ZnO had the worst effect. Significant differences were also observed between the gut microbiota of control, model, and Zn-supplemented rats. Overall, administration of Zn-enriched CCFM1195 was more effective than the other approaches in restoring physical indicators of Zn deficiency after Zn supplementation, and this advantage was more significant at low-dose Zn supplementation.
