eaction was tested by adding superoxi<strong>de</strong> dismutase (SOD) (300 I.U. per well) to some<br />
wells containing PMA-stimu<strong>la</strong>ted phagocytes (data not shown).<br />
The effect of inocu<strong>la</strong>tion of polysaccharidic fraction to unvaccinated and<br />
vaccinated soles against P. damse<strong>la</strong>e subsp. piscicida on the production of superoxi<strong>de</strong><br />
anions by sole phagocytes was also <strong>de</strong>termined. In this case, phagocytes from control<br />
fish, fish inocu<strong>la</strong>ted with algal polysacchari<strong>de</strong>, and fish inocu<strong>la</strong>ted first with the algal<br />
polysacchari<strong>de</strong> and with the bacterin were iso<strong>la</strong>ted and mono<strong>la</strong>yers prepared. In all the<br />
cases, NBT (100 μl) dissolved at 1 mg ml -1 in HBSS was ad<strong>de</strong>d to the wells and<br />
phagocytes incubated at 22 ºC for 30 min. After incubation, cells were fixed in 70%<br />
methanol and the reduced formazan within phagocytes was solubilised by adding 120 μl<br />
2M KOH and 140 μl dimethyl sulfoxi<strong>de</strong> (DMSO, Sigma). Finally, absorbance was read<br />
at 630 nm in a multiscan spectrophotometer (UV-1601 Spectrophotometer, Whitakker<br />
Bioproducts).<br />
2.6. Statistical analysis<br />
Results are expressed as phagocyte stimu<strong>la</strong>tion in<strong>de</strong>x, calcu<strong>la</strong>ted by dividing each<br />
sample value by the mean control value. Values above 1 reflect an increase and un<strong>de</strong>r 1<br />
a <strong>de</strong>crease in each parameter. Data were statistically analysed by one-way analysis of<br />
variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s comparison of means using SPSS for Windows.<br />
Differ<strong>en</strong>ces were consi<strong>de</strong>red statistically significant wh<strong>en</strong> P< 0.05.<br />
3. Results<br />
Results obtained in vitro after incubation of phagocytes with algal extracts are<br />
shown in Figure 1a. The data are expressed as a phagocytic stimu<strong>la</strong>tion in<strong>de</strong>x obtained<br />
by dividing superoxi<strong>de</strong> anion produced by phagocytes incubated with algal<br />
polysacchari<strong>de</strong> or with algal polysacchari<strong>de</strong> plus bacteria by the values of phagocytes<br />
incubated without the algal polysaccharidic fraction. Data obtained after incubation with<br />
β-glucan instead of algal polysacchari<strong>de</strong> are expressed in Figure 1b. Results obtained<br />
show that only at the commercial β-glucan significantly <strong>en</strong>hanced the respiratory burst<br />
activity of sole phagocytes at the highest conc<strong>en</strong>tration (10 mg ml -1 ), compared to non<br />
