Abstract
Described herein are nutrient formulations, spore formulations, and nutrient-spore formulations. Also described herein are methods of making and using the nutrient formulations, spore formulations, and nutrient-spore formulations.
Claims49
A method of enhancing the performance of an animal, the method comprising:
- administering a nutrient-spore formulation to the animal, wherein the nutrient-spore formulation comprises an effective amount of spores and wherein at least one of the spores is activated.
A method of enhancing the performance of a plant, the method comprising:
- administering a nutrient-spore formulation to the plant, wherein the nutrient-spore formulation comprises an effective amount of spores, wherein at least one of the spores is activated.
A method comprising:
- mixing an amount of a nutrient formulation with an amount of a spore formulation to form a nutrient-spore formulation,
- wherein the spore formulation comprises spores, and
- wherein the nutrient formulation comprises an L-amino acid, a buffer, and a preservative;
- and
- heating the nutrient-spore formulation to form an activated nutrient-spore formulation, wherein about 50% to about 100% of the spores are activated,
- wherein the steps of mixing and heating are performed at the point of use.
3 more elements
