The present invention is directed to direct-fed microbials for use in improving the performance of an animal, improving the health of an animal, improving the environment of an animal, and combinations thereof. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains 86 and 300, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, for uses comprising the above-mentioned uses.

Direct-fed microbials and methods of their use

The invention relates to compositions comprising microbial strains for use in inhibiting viruses, and methods therefor. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions of isolatedstrains selected from the group consisting of isolatedstrains 300, 86, 101, 235, 102, 177, A12, 54, 681, 721, strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, and methods for use of these strains for virus inhibition.

Microbial strains for virus inhibition

The invention relates to direct-fed microbials for use inand/orinhibition in animals in combination with antibiotics. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 57, 71, and 126, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, for a use comprising the above-mentioned use.

Methods of inhibition with microbial strains and antibiotics

The invention relates to compositions comprising microbial strains and methods for use of the compositions in removing pollutants in waste, water, or soil, such as remediating dye and lignin, reducing contaminants, degrading paper (such as flushable or disposable or non-flushable wipes), reducing odor, reducing chemical oxygen demand (COD), and combinations thereof, in the water, the soil, or the waste or for use in administration to animals in the feed or drinking water of the animals. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions of isolatedstrains selected from the group consisting of isolatedstrainsMDG-1000 (NRRL No. B-67888),MDG-1001 (NRRL No. B-67889),MDG-8001 (NRRL No. B-67890),MDG-1047 (NRRL No. B-67891),MDG1607 (NRRL No. B-67666),MDGV18 (NRRL No. B-67665),MDGV17 (NRRL No. B-67664),MDG-1728 (NRRL No. B-67618),MDG-2705 (NRRL No. B-67619), and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, and methods for use of these strains for removing pollutants in waste, water, or soil, such as remediating dye and lignin, reducing contaminants, degrading paper (such as flushable or disposable or non-flushable wipes), reducing odor, reducing chemical oxygen demand (COD), and combinations thereof, in the water, the soil, or the waste or for use in administration to animals in the feed or drinking water of the animals.

Microorganisms for treatment of waste, water, or soil or for feeding to animals

The invention relates to treatment of a plant with one or more microorganisms for inhibiting a plant pathogen. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, for a use comprising the above-mentioned use.

Microorganisms for plant pathogen inhibition

The invention relates to treatment of waste with one or more microorganisms for the purposes of, including but not limited to, degrading waste, bioremediation of waste, enhancing waste stabilization, reducing contaminants in waste, reducing odor in waste, reducing organics in waste, and combinations thereof. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, for uses comprising the above-mentioned uses.

Microorganisms for waste treatment

The invention relates to cold temperature-resistant microbials for use in waste water treatment. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains ALG and DRT, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, and combinations thereof, for a use comprising the above-mentioned use.

Cold temperature-resistant microbials and methods of their use

The invention relates to direct-fed microbials for use in improving reproductive performance in animals, decreasing death loss and/or off-feed events in animals, improving milk production and/or milk quality in dairy animals, and inhibiting a disease or disorder in dairy animals selected from the group consisting of milk fever, ketosis, retained placenta, metritis, pneumonia, and displaced abomasum. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains 86, 300, 101, 235, 177, and 102, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, for uses comprising the above-mentioned uses.

Microbials for animals

The invention relates to direct-fed microbials for use ininhibition in animals. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains 101, 235, 77, 177, and 102 and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, for a use comprising the above-mentioned use. The invention can also be used for treatment of plants and in food processing.

Direct-fed microbials

The invention relates to direct-fed microbials for use in, and/orinhibition in animals. More particularly, the invention relates to isolatedstrains A12, 54, 681, 101, 235, and 721, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, for a use comprising the above-mentioned use. The invention also relates to the use of isolatedstrains 681,721, A12, 54, 86, 300, 101, 102, 235, and 177, and strains having all of the identifying characteristics of these strains, to prevent or reduce prolapse in an animal.
