A nose and throat anti-influenza solution is described that decreases the likelihood influenza infection and its spread. The solution's components are readily available and have been used to treat humans for other ailments previously, leading to an easily implemented, scalable, safe, and cost-effective solution. The core components of the solution include: specially denatured alcohol (SDA); Triton x-100; sodium saccharin; 1,8 cineole (eucalyptol); thymol; methyl salicylate; menthol; sorbitol and/or glycerin; sodium benzoate; poloxamer 407; polysorbate 80; and distilled water. Optionally, the solution also includes one or more of the following: citric acid; sambucus nigra agglutinin; a lectin that binds 2,3 sialic acid; nonoxynol-9; sialyllactose; a protease; a protease inhibitor; and/or chloroquine. The solution is applied to the nasal cavity via a pre-moistened cotton swab or a pre-moistened facial tissue and the solution is applied to the back of the throat via a spray, gum, or gargle solution. Further a nebulizer, atomizer, or inhaler can be used to apply the solution to the back of the throat, to the pharynx, and/or to the respiratory tract.

Nose and throat anti-influenza solution and method of use

The invention provides isolated nucleic acids and their encoded polypeptides that are involved in enhancing the essential amino acid content of a plant. The polypeptide may be derived from a protease inhibitor, and more specifically, a chymotrypsin inhibitor. Chymotrypsin inhibitors that may be modified for use in the invention are present in many plant species. Barley (Hordeum vulgare) was initially used to obtain the chymotrypsin inhibitor modified for use in the present invention. Other plant species that may be used as a source for chymotrypsin inhibitor for use in the present invention include Zea Mays, Vicia faba, Cucurbita maxima, Canavalia lineata, Vigna angularis, Nicotiana tabacum, Nicotiana sylvestris, Sambucus nigra, Momordica charantia, Solanum tuberosum, Lycopersicon peruvianum, Lycopersicon esculentum, Amaranthus caudatus and Arabidopsis thalania. Optionally there is also a decrease in protease inhibitory activity of the polypeptide. The invention further provides recombinant expression cassettes, host cells, transgenic plants, and antibody compositions. The present invention provides methods and compositions relating to increasing essential amino acid content of plants for feed.
