Bioflocs consist of bacteria, fungi, algae, detritus and other suspended particles (Hargreaves 2006, Avnimelech, 2011) Bacterial cell wall consists of LPS, PG and β -1, 3-glucans, activating the non-specific immune system (Johansson & Söderhäll 1985)
Bioflocs can be consumed by cultured animals (Avnimelech et al. 1994; McIntosh, 2000) Bioflocs may contribute to enhance the shrimp immunity
