Sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) were injected intraperitoneally with monovalent (Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida or Vibrio anguillarum) and divalent (Ph. damselae subsp. piscicida and V. anguillarum) vaccine formulations, with or without adjuvants (mineral oil, liposome or alginate), to evaluate the short and long-term pathological effects. Eight animals from each group were sampled one, two, four and 11 months after intraperitoneal injection. The acute peritoneal response and the progression to a chronic status were evaluated by analysing peritoneal leucocytes collected during the first days post-injection. To evaluate the chronic response, the late peritoneal leucocyte response was analysed and the peritoneal cavity was examined and the intra-abdominal lesion level scored based on a pre-defined scale. Correlation between leucocyte exudative response, tissue inflammatory response and the development of granuloma were sought. The acute leucocyte response was characterized by an early (24-48 h) mobilization of neutrophils and macrophages, with phagocyte numbers dependent on the formulation, but no significant variations were observed in lymphocytes/small cells and EGCs. Later on, a steady increase occurred in lymphocytes/small cells and EGCs and a high concentration in neutrophils and macrophages was maintained up to 30-60 days in groups i.p. injected with oil adjuvanted formulations with antigen. All the lesions observed were moderate, indicating that in sea bass, the pathological effects due to intraperitoneally injected vaccines are less severe than in other fish species. The divalent oil adjuvanted vaccine induced the most severe side effects, with macroscopic granulomas consistently present up to 11 months.
