The invention includes compositions for treating an animal to inhibit the incidence and growth ofO157:H7 and other pathogenic bacteria. The composition is a therapeutically effective amount of abacterium, or one, or a combination of a number of other probiotic bacteria. An alternative composition is a therapeutically effective amount of a lactic acid producing bacterium such asbacterium in combination with a lactate utilizing bacterium such as. One example of thebacterium is, and one example of theis

Compositions to inhibit pathogenic growth

The invention includes methods and compositions for treating an animal to inhibit the incidence and growth ofO157:H7 and other pathogenic bacteria. The treatment method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount ofor one or a combination of a number of other probiotic bacteria to an animal. An alternative treatment method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a lactic acid producing bacterium such asin combination with a lactate utilizing bacterium such as

Compositions and methods for inhibiting pathogenic growth

Compositions and methods useful for reducing or eliminating the presence of pathogens in meat and meat products are disclosed. Administration of one or more lactic acid producing microorganisms to a live animal, to a carcass, to meat, to meat products, or in animal feed results in significant reductions in the amount of pathogens potentially harmful to humans when ingested. Synergistic effects can be achieved with the administration of multiple strains of microorganisms.

Compositions and methods for reducing the pathogen content of meat and meat products

The disclosure describes a method of administering an amount of a lactic acid producing bacterium such asalone or in combination with a lactate utilizing bacterium such aseffective to enhance the milk fat content of a dairy cow.

Method to enhance fat content in the milk of a diary cow

A process for improving the utilization of feedstuffs by a ruminant, the process comprising the steps of mixing a lactic acid producing bacteria culture and a lactate utilizing bacteria culture, admixing these cultures with a dry formulation or an animal feedlot diet into a composition, and administering this composition orally to ruminants. The process may be used on a continual basis to increase meat or milk production, or used during the transition from a roughage diet to a feedlot diet to prevent or minimize acidosis. The preferred embodiment utilizes Lactobacillus acidophilus as its lactic acid producing bacteria culture and Propionibacterium P-5 as its lactate utilizing bacteria culture. The composition of the process is in a dry powder form for storage at ambient temperatures for long durations.

Process for improving the utilization of feedstuffs by ruminants

A composition of a mixture of a lactic acid producing bacteria culture and a lactate utilizing bacteria culture admixed with a dry formulation or an animal feedlot diet for improving the utilization of feedstuffs by a ruminant. The composition may be used on a continual basis to increase meat or milk production, or used during the transition from a roughage diet to a feedlot diet to prevent or minimize acidosis. The preferred embodiment utilizes Lactobacillus acidaphilus as its lactic acid producing bacteria culture and Propionibacterium P-5 as its lactate utilizing bacteria culture. The composition is in a dry powder form for storage at ambient temperatures for long durations.
