  • Microbial compositions and methods for ruminant health and performance
    Patent number: 11871767
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to isolated microorganisms—including novel strains of the microorganisms—microbial ensembles, and compositions comprising the same. Furthermore, the disclosure teaches methods of utilizing the described microorganisms, microbial compositions, and compositions comprising the same, in methods for modulating the agricultural production of ruminants. In particular aspects, the disclosure provides methods of increasing feed efficiency, and methods of decreasing acidosis.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 2021
    Date of Patent: January 16, 2024
    Assignee: Native Microbials, Inc.
    Inventors: Mallory Embree, Cameron Martino, Norman Pitt, Jordan Embree, Corey Dodge
  • Nucleases and methods for making and using them
    Patent number: 11634698
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are polypeptides having nuclease activity. Some of the polypeptides having nuclease activity were generated by an improved gene site mutagenesis (“GSSM”) method or the tailored multi-site combinatorial assembly (“TMCA”) method. Also disclosed are compositions and kits comprising the polypeptides having nuclease activity, and methods for making and using these polypeptides, compositions and kits.

  • Method of illuminating algae for algae growth
    Patent number: 9329131
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for using a growth vessel to simulate algae growth and/or productivity in a reference environment, such as an open pond, a closed photobioreactor, or a hybrid system. Based on predicted algae sample trajectories in the reference environment, an illumination profile is developed. An algae sample in the growth vessel can then be exposed to the illumination profile under controlled conditions. Properties of algae in the reference environment can then be characterized based on the sample exposed to the illumination profile.
    Type: Grant
