The goal of this project was to research a natural way to aid the immune system after becoming compromised due to stress. The experiment consisted of exposing crickets to a stressful environment, an immune challenge, and echinacea extract. The crickets' hemocyte, or immune cells, were then counted in a Countess II Automated Cell Counter. Hemocyte counts for each group were analyzed and compared. Data suggests echinacea has positive immune properties. Preliminary data suggests further studies involving the human immune system's reaction to echinacea.
