J. Stan Bailey has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Livestock mucosal competitive exclusion culture to reduce enteropathogenic bacteria
    Patent number: 6214335
    Abstract: A preparation from the scrapings of healthy animals is cultured and administered to animals. This preparation confers a strong measure of protection against the subsequent colonization by enteropathogenic bacteria, including Salmonella species, Campylobacter species and Escherichia coli 0157:H7, which currently cause an unacceptably high incidence of morbidity and mortality in humans and reduce productivity in livestock populations.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 26, 1998
    Date of Patent: April 10, 2001
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture
    Inventors: Norman J. Stern, Nelson A. Cox, J. Stan Bailey, Paula J. Cray
  • Saccharomyces boulardii treatment to diminish campylobacter and salmonella in poultry
    Patent number: 6010695
    Abstract: A preparation of Saccharomyces strains is used for reducing colonization by human enteropathogenic bacteria in poultry. This is referred to as a defined competitive exclusion preparation. It is especially effective for both Salmonella and Campylobacter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 9, 1996
    Date of Patent: January 4, 2000
    Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture
    Inventors: J. Eric Line, Norman J. Stern, J. Stan Bailey, Nelson A. Cox

    Inventors: Norman J. Stern, Nelson A. Cox, J. Stan Bailey, Paula J. Cray
  • Ovo antibiotic and microbial treatment to dimenish salmonellae populations in avians
    Patent number: 5722342
    Abstract: To reduce the level of contamination of processed poultry, pathogen-free or nearly pathogen-free birds must be delivered to the processing plant. Therefore, it is important to prevent and/or reduce early contamination and spread of Salmonella in poultry. An in ovo method of treatment with a defined microbial preparation and an antibiotic to reduce colonization of newly hatched chicks by enteropathogenic microorganisms is described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 1996
    Date of Patent: March 3, 1998
    Inventors: J. Eric Line, Norman J. Stern, Nelson A. Cox, J. Stan Bailey, Catherine Ricks, Patricia Phelps, Michael Knight
  • Nucosal competitive exclusion flora
    Patent number: 5451400
    Abstract: A preparation effective for reducing colonization by human enteropathogenic bacteria in poultry is prepared from cultures of mucosa-associated flora obtained from ceca of mature birds and is referred to as mucosal competitive exclusion (MCE). The preparation is especially effective for both Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. Administration of the novel MCE preparation to newly-hatched or hatching birds provides substantial protection against both microorganisms and results in the diminished presence of both in processed poultry products.
