Abstract: Acathopanas senticosus polysaccharides (ASPS) is a biologically active polysaccharide, not only has strong anti-tumor effect and antioxidant activity, at the same time is also an ideal immune enhancer and helps to regulate the gut microflora balance. So ASPS as a new green feed additives would have good prospects for development in animal production. This review summarizes physiological function of ASPS and its application in animal production.

Key words: Acathopanas senticosus polysaccharides; physiological function; immune regulation; animal production
