Abstract

Reducing the microbial contamination of a composition by treating with lactoferrin.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a meat product, comprising treating the meat product with a sufficient amount of lactoferrin to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         2 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a meat product, comprising treating the meat product with a sufficient amount of isolated lactoferrin to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         3 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a meat product, comprising treating the meat product with a sufficient amount of lactoferrin mixed with a carrier to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         4 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a meat product, comprising treating the meat product with a sufficient amount of lactofernin mixed with a naturally occuring carrier to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         5 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a meat product, comprising treating the meat product with a sufficient amount of isolated lactoferrin mixed with a naturally occuring carrier to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         6 . A method in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said lactoferrin is a recombinant lactoferrin.  
     
     
         7 . A method in accordance with  claim 3 , wherein said lactoferrin is a recombinant lactofernin.  
     
     
         8 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a composition subject to microbial contamination comprising treating the composition with a sufficient amount of lactoferrin to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         9 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a composition subject to microbial contamination comprising treating the composition with a sufficient amount of isolated lactoferrin to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         10 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a composition subject to microbial contamination comprising treating the composition with a sufficient amount of isolated lactoferrin compounded with a carrier to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         11 . A method for reducing the microbial contamination of a composition subject to microbial contamination comprising treating the composition with a sufficient amount of isolated lactoferrin bound with a naturally occuring carrier to reduce microbial contamination.  
     
     
         12 . A method for retarding food-spoilage comprising applying to food an effective amount of lactoferrin having less than 25% metal loading.
