Abstract: Polysaccharides in Enteromorpha with immunity effects were studied in cell culture condition.The results indicated that in proper concentration EP increased the capability of T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes proliferation. Although in proper concentration EP had no evident effects on the production of IFN-γand IL-2 induced directly by T lymphocytes, however, it had no significant effects on the production of IFN-γ induced by antigen presenting cells. So, polysaccharides in Enteromorpha had evident immune enhanced activity.

Key words: enteromorpha, polysaccharides, cell culture, non-specific immunity
