Abstract
Abstract Marine algae are primary producers of long chain omega-3 fatty acids and can serve as novel dairy feed supplements with the added potential to influence bovine immunity. Our objective was to assess the immunomodulatory impact of dietary supplementation with different algal types (macroalgae and microalgae). Effects of dietary algal supplementation were examined using a crossover design and a 28 day feeding period with each algal type. Primary immunization with Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) was carried out 8 days into the trial, with secondary immunization 14 days later. KLH-specific serum IgG responses were significantly higher in cows receiving macroalgae-supplemented feed than in cows receiving microalgae-supplemented feed. In contrast, cows receiving microalgae-supplemented feed showed significantly higher levels of macrophage oxidative burst activity in response to PMA challenge in vitro. These results suggest that dietary supplementation with algal products has immunomodulatory potential and also indicates that the effects on cellular and humoral immunity are dependent on the type of algae used.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
