Immunall equine supplement

Both for Stallions and Mares a High activated Immune System is of crucial importance.

It is widely known by researchers into the clinical context of horse breeding that many intruders like Viruses, Bacteria and Fungi can have devastating effects on Fertility. Infectious agents like viruses, bacteria or fungi may attack the foetus or its membranes, resulting in death of the foetus. Other factors such as hormonal deficiencies may result in the same. Also early embryonic loss might be caused by hormonal deficiencies. Like chronic uterine infections or abnormal oestrous cycles can cause or result in similar cases. In Stallions fertility is very hard to predict.

Immunall Ltd. has found stress being one of the major threats to horse fitness, resulting in a poor functioning of the Immune System as a poor functioning of the internal organs. Hormonal problems have influence on reproduction as on quality of semen. Binding of the sperm to the egg.

Immunall has thought to have effect on the so called acrosome integrity.

Acrosome reaction

Proteins (red) on the sperm plasma membrane come into contact with a poly- Courtesy of Chris Patton, Stanford University saccharide in the egg jelly (yellow). This causes an influx of Ca++ into the sperm head and an increase in pHi. The Ca++ increase causes the acrosome vesicle (green) to fuse with the plasma membrane of the sperm and the vesicle undergoes exocytosis. The increase in pHi causes the actin (pink) to go from the globular state to the filamentous state pushing out the acrosomal process and exposing Bindin molecules (blue).
