Natural source of Beta-Glucan & MOS
Description
YeaMOS is a natural component derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The main efficient ingredients are β-glucan and mannan oligosaccharides. YeaMOS can increase immunity, block pathogens and bind mycotoxins (especially Zearalenone).
Functions
◉ Balance intestinal microflora and enhance immunity
◉ Agglutinate pathogens
Mode of action
A. Agglutinate and excrete pathogens
The mannan oligosaccharides of yeast cell wall has similar structure with binding site of pathogens on the intestinal wall. Thus it competitively agglutinate pathogens and interfere with the agglutinating between pathogens and intestinal wall. Furthermore, as the mannan cannot be digested by pathogens and intestinal enzymes, the tightly bound pathogen-mannan complex can be discharged from the body.
B. Bind mycotoxins
The special space structure of yeast cell wall provides lots of binding sites for different toxins, the intermolecular forces like hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals forces can help to reinforce the binding and form polysaccharides-toxin complex, which prevents the mycotoxin being absorbed.
C. Stimulate immune system
β-glucan can bind to the surface receptor of immune cells, exciting the immune relate signal transmission channel,stimulate immune cells to release downstream signal molecule, and induce the specifific and non-specifific immune response.
Applications
A. YeaMOS can agglutinate pathogens
B. Bind several kinds of mycotoxins, especially zearalenone
C. Stimulate immune system, improve both specifific and non-specifific immune response
D. Relieve stress, improve the survival rate
