Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α Secretion by ex Vivo Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-Stimulated Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) up to 21 days [clinicaltrials_resource:7941d9438314edd38ab31375e090de98]

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the systemic effects of orally administered Beta-glucan on innate immune responses of leukocytes. The effects of Beta-glucan will be determined by measuring the ex vivo responsiveness of leukocytes to various inflammatory stimuli as a surrogate marker of the antimicrobial response
