IMMUNE T-CELL STIMULATION

Application 1943/KOLNP/2004 published 2006-08-11, filed 2004-12-16
The present invention is a novel approach for stimulating or enhancing immune T-cells in an animal. In particular, the invention is directed to an egg, and more to specifically, a fraction thereof of a size less than 3000 daltons, obtained from an avian that has been hyperimmunized with one or more immunogens. The ingestion by an animal of an effective amount of the hyperimmune egg or fraction thereof causes a significant increase in the overall T-cell population in that animal. (FIG.NIL)
