  This study was to examine immune response of white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei and its resistance against Vibrio alginolyticus when shrimp received Petalonia binghamiae extract in vitro and in vivo. Shrimp hemocytes incubated with 1 mg/ml extract showed increased Phenoloxidase (PO) activity and respiratory burst (RB, release of superoxide anion). The total hemocyte count (THC), Phenoloxidase (PO) activity, respiratory Burst (RB) of shrimp received the extract at 6 and 10 μg/g were significantly higher than those of shrimp received saline and the control shrimp after 48, 96 and 144 h. Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) activity of shrimp received the extract at 6 and 10 μg/g were significantly higher than those of shrimp received saline and the control shrimp after 48 h. Phagocytic activity and clearance efficiency to Vibrio alginolyticus in the shrimp that received the extract at 6 and .. View More»
