Functional properties of the yeast cell wall against pathogens

The use of antibiotics was a success for animal health and production over the last decades. However, scientific evidence suggests that the huge use of them has led to increased antibiotic resistance. One alternative that has similar effects to antibiotics is the functional properties of the yeast cell wall.
