Improvement of consumer consciousness and the
increasing tendency towards consumption of natural products, and increasing
resistance to antibiotics and antiparasitic medicines, have increasingly
limited utilization of medicines for protection from diseases. It has also
become impossible to use antibiotics and similar medicines for animals in order
for preventive purposes except medical treatments as a result of recent legal
arrangements and this situation caused new approaches for fighting with
diseases. People have now focused on using as natural as possible products for
treatment and prevention purposes. Immunostimulants are natural or synthetic
components that are used at pets and poultries for various purposes, such as
health, growth and performance increase, and they stimulate humoral and
non-specific cellular immune system against pathogens. Studies showed that
immunostimulants provide immunity against various disease factors, such as
bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases, increase the survival rate and
productivity, increase the effect of vaccines and antibiotics. They are
preferred also because they are safer than chemotherapeutics. Taking necessary
actions to protect hencoop from viral, bacterial and parasitic diseases and to
prevent economic losses is important in poultry farming. It seems more suitable
to use immunostimulants for prevention purposes before the disease occurs.
However, since they have effectiveness increasing properties as adjuvants, it
is also possible to state that they will be more effective for treatment if
they can be used in combination. Therefore it is expected that therapeutically
effective components can be developed in recent future with single or combined
immunostimulant trials, which are not harmful to animals, humans and
environment.
