Abstract<br />

The pot<strong>en</strong>tial effect of extracellu<strong>la</strong>r polysacchari<strong>de</strong> fraction of the red microalga<br />

Porphyridium cru<strong>en</strong>tum on respiratory burst activity of sole phagocytes was evaluated.<br />

In vitro assays were carried out and no immunostimu<strong>la</strong>tory effects were obtained. In in<br />

vivo assays, fish were intraperitoneally injected with 500 μg of polysacchari<strong>de</strong> fraction<br />

and sampled after 24 h and 7 days. These fish were divi<strong>de</strong>d in two groups, immunized<br />

and not immunized with a bacterin against Photobacterium damse<strong>la</strong>e subsp. piscicida.<br />

The results obtained from in vivo assays did not show increase on respiratory burst, on<br />

the contrary, the only significant differ<strong>en</strong>ces were obtained from sole inocu<strong>la</strong>ted with<br />

polysaccharidic fraction or with bacterin, both of them showed a <strong>de</strong>crease on respiratory<br />

burst, 24 h post-inocu<strong>la</strong>tion.<br />
