In the second algae feature in this month’s issues, the team from Olmix write on studies into the suitability of marine algal polysaccharides in immune stimulation in farmed animals.
Nowadays, all animal production is concerned with vaccination. This is an essential technique for the protection of livestock health which, however, entails significant costs for stock breeders. Maximizing the efficiency and profitability of prophylactic vaccination strategies is therefore a major stake. To achieve this, new avenues are constantly explored. One of these concerns is the use of new molecules extracted from seaweeds to help optimize the stimulation of the natural defences of the body and its response to vaccination strategies.
