The subject invention provides disinfectant compositions and methods of using these compositions for controlling disease in livestock production operations. In one embodiment, a disinfectant composition is provided for controlling disease-causing pathogens in an animal feeding operation (AFO), such as a chicken coop or barn. In preferred embodiments, the composition comprises one or more beneficial microorganisms and/or growth by-products thereof, such as biosurfactants, and is applied inside an enclosure using thermal fogging.

Disclosed herein are material composition formulated for mitigating activity of a virus on a surface of an article. Methods of preparing such a material composition are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to the identification of a group of microorganisms, which are relatively abundant in the microbial communities associated with fruits and vegetables typically consumed raw and therefore transient or permanent members of the human microbiota. The consumption of mixtures of these microbes at relevant doses will produce a beneficial health effect in the host. The present invention relates to methods of using these microbes to increase the presence of beneficial microbes in crops eaten raw.
