Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 860,582, which claims the benefit under 35 USC Ā§ 119(e) of U.S. Application No. 60 / 457,633, filed Jun. 4, 2003, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for decreasing the infectivity, morbidity, and / or rate of mortality associated with a variety of pathogenic microorganisms. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and bacterial spores are responsible for a plethora of human and animal ailments. In addition to vegetatively growing bacteria, bacteria of the Bacillus genus and others form stable spores that resist harsh conditions and extreme temperatures. For example, contamination of farmlands with B. anthracis can lead to a fatal disease in domestic, agricultural, and wild animals, as well as in humans in c...
