The prawn Artemesia longinaris is an abundant penaeid species in the Argentine coastal waters. As the availability of this species
undergoes yearly fluctuations, it is important to establish the feasibility of its culture. A 50 days trial was conducted to study
the effect of different immunostimulants on growth and immune response on Artemesia longinaris. Individuals fed a complete
feed, four semipurified diets containing probiotic (Saccharomyces boulardii), prebiotic (fructooligosaccharide, short chains),
nutraceutic (Allium sativum, Drosera, Belladona and Pyrogenium) and a control diet were tested by triplicate in100laquaria
at a density of 25 individuals/m2 .Immunological parameters, such as total haemocyte amount, protein concentration, and
peroxidase and phenoloxidase activity in the plasma were determined for wild shrimp and individuals under culture conditions.
Results of variables were linked with histological studies of the midgut gland.
According to the data analysis (ANOVA) results indicated that percentage in weight gain of shrimp fed the diet containing
probiotic are lower than those fed the control or complete diets(p
