Charles Neil McBryde

Working in the early 20th century, Charles Neil McBryde was a medical doctor and bacteriologist whose published work focused on animal health and food safety. He is credited on U.S. Department of Agriculture research including studies on immunity from hog cholera, and he also wrote A Bacteriological Study of Ham Souring, a detailed investigation into a costly problem in the meat industry.

The surviving online record is fairly sparse, but it shows a researcher interested in applying bacteriology to real agricultural problems. His work reflects a period when laboratory science was becoming increasingly important to public health, livestock care, and the modern food supply.

A memorial record identifies him as Charles Neil McBryde, M.D., born in 1872. Because readily available biographical sources are limited, many personal details about his life remain unclear in the sources I could confirm.
