  • Patent number: 9534019
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods of preparing extracts of material fermented with Paenibacillus sp., preferably Paenibacillus elgii ourofinensis. The extracts exhibit antimicrobial activity and may be used in the treatment or prophylaxis of infections in animals or plants or as a growth promoter in animals intended for slaughter for human consumption. The invention provides new peptides derived from the fractions of the fermentation of Paenibacillus elgii ourofinensis extract, prepared for example, by n-butanol extraction of the Paenibacillus fermentation broth. The extract may optionally be dried and/or mixed with other components such as appropriate nutritional components to form an animal feed, additional therapeutic adjuvants, or pharmaceutically or agriculturally acceptable carriers. The invention is also related to the isolation of this strain of Paenibacillus, including fermentation in a medium such as corn steep liquor and selection of catalase negative bacteria.

  • Publication number: 20140113817
    Abstract: The present invention provides extracts of material fermented with Paenibacillus sp., preferably the one called here Paenibacillus elgii ourofinensis with antimicrobial activity and/or growth promoter in animals intended for slaughter for human consumption. The invention provides new peptides derived from the fractions of the fermentation of Paenibacillus elgii ourofinensis extract, said new peptides having antimicrobial activity and promoting the growth of organisms, for example, plants and animals. The invention is also related to the use of the extract of this new strain, Paenibacillus elgii ourofinensis, as a growth promoter and as an antimicrobial agent in the treatment and prophylaxis of animals intended for human consumption.
