polymeric microspheres as adjuvants in the production of vaccines against parasites escuticociliados fish. The invention describes the use of microspheres as adjuvants in obtaining a vaccine against Scuticociliatosis. The invention provides a vaccine containing spherical chitosan microspheres and a copolymer of methyl vinyl ether and maleic anhydride, which act as an adjuvant, being coated microspheres membrane antigen of a pathogenic parasite turbot, escuticociliado The vaccine is able to induce potent immune responses and a high protection in turbot against Scuticociliatosis, when administered parenterally, improve the protection induced by vaccines that use oil adjuvants containing metabolizable oils, but without producing undesirable side effects in fishes.
