ABSTRACT:
This invention features an oral vaccine that includes a multiple-cell organism for use as food for an aquatic animal to be vaccinated, and a single-cell organism fed to, and as a result, bioencapsulated by, the multiple-cell organism. The single-cell organism has been transformed to express a recombinant antigen that induces an immune response in the aquatic animal and thereby vaccinates the aquatic animal (e.g., a fish or a shrimp).
