Effects of Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides on animal growth performance and immune function: a review
Full text linkYu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides (YPF-P) is the primary component of Yu-Ping-Feng San (YPF-S) medicine prescription, which consists of three polysaccharides from Astragalus Membranaceus polysaccharide (AM-P), Atractylodes Macrocephala polysaccharide (AM-P), and Saposhnikovia Divaricata polysaccharide (SD-P). The use of Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides dates back to the Yuan Dynasty when Yilin Wei first utilized it. The remedy is included in “Effective Formulae Handed Down for Generations” and “The Pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China.” Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides is known to promote growth and enhance the body’s immune function in animals. As such, it has promising application prospects in animal husbandry. This review mainly introduces the main components and characteristics of Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides, its effects on animal production, and its impact on animal immune function. Additionally, this paper offers a preliminary discussion on the development and utilization of Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides, laying the foundation for further research and application. This review may also provide insight and reference for the development of the farming industry, reducing production costs and improving productivity

A mini review of Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides: Their biological activities and potential applications in aquaculture
No full textPolysaccharides, one of the important active ingredients of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, become a focus of attention in many fields, particularly in medical research industry. Yu-Ping-Feng (YPF) is a primary component of many traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, and it’s proven to be significantly beneficial to human health. In recent years, polysaccharides from YPF have been well documented after successful isolation and purification, but the polysaccharides from YPF post-processing wastes are not studied. Under the guidance of the Pharmacological Efficacy Index, we have extracted Yu-Ping-Feng polysaccharides (YPF-P) from the wastes of YPF in our previous work. Our previous findings showed that YPF-P promote the growth, enhance immunity and organ structure or function of cultured fish northern snakehead fish (Channa argus) and grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus), and significantly improve the intestinal microflora of fish. This paper reviews the current status of YPF-P and their application in aquaculture, including the development of green feed for aquatic animals and the re-utilization of the YPF wastes. This series of work is a way to have the best of both worlds, not only to realize the rational treatment of medical wastes, but also to effectively use the wastes, to find a green raw material for aquatic feed

Threshold regression with endogeneity
No full textThis paper studies estimation in threshold regression with endogeneity in the regressors and thresholding variable. Three key results differ from those in regular models. First, both the threshold point and the threshold effect parameters are shown to be identified without the need for instrumentation. Second, in partially linear threshold models, both parametric and nonparametric components rely on the same data, which prima facie suggests identification failure. But, as shown here, the discontinuity structure of the threshold itself supplies identifying information for the parametric coefficients without the need for extra randomness in the regressors. Third, instrumentation plays different roles in the estimation of the system parameters, delivering identification for the structural coefficients in the usual way, but raising convergence rates for the threshold effect parameters and improving efficiency for the threshold point. Simulation studies corroborate the theory and the asymptotics. An empirical application is conducted to explore the effects of 401(k) retirement programs on savings, illustrating the relevance of threshold models in treatment effects evaluation in the presence of endogeneity
