Abstract

Hemorrhagic disease caused by Vibrio alginolyticus is one of the biggest challenges for farming Red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) in Vietnam. Developing a feed-based vaccine is essential to reduce antibiotic use and minimize losses in fish farming. The study aimed to develop a feed-based vaccine that only releases its contents at the site of action, i.e., in the fish's gastrointestinal tract. pH measurements taken from the digestive system of Red drum before and one hour and thirty minutes after feeding showed a distinct change in pH from a neutral value in the mouth, decreasing to a very low acidic pH in the stomach, then increasing back to neutral and slightly alkaline in the intestine. The study encapsulated formalin-inactivated V. alginolyticus within Eudragit E100 microparticles. Exposure to an acidic environment simulating the conditions of the fish stomach showed that the size of the vaccine-loaded microparticles decreased rapidly, reflecting the degradation of the microparticles and the release of the vaccine. The microparticles did not release the vaccine at pH ≥ 6. These results highlight the potential application of Eudragit E100 in the development of a feed-based vaccine to prevent Vibrio alginolyticus-induced disease in Red drum.
