RESUMO

To propose a novel modeling of aflatoxin immunization and surrogate toxin conjugate from AFB1 vaccines, an immunogen based on the mimotope, (i.e. a peptide-displayed phage that mimics aflatoxins epitope without toxin hazards) was designed. The recombinant phage 3P30 was identified by phage display technology and exhibited the ability to bind, dose dependent, specifically to its cognate target - anti-AFB1 antibody. In immunization assay, the phage-displayed mimotope and its peptide chemically synthesized were able to induce specific anti-AFB1 antibodies, indicating the proof of concept for aflatoxin mimicry. Furthermore, the phage 3P30 was homogeneously coated with chitosan, which also provided a tridimensional matrix network for mucosal delivery. After intranasal immunization, chitosan coated phages improved specific immunogenicity compared to the free antigen. It can be concluded that affinity-selected phage may contribute to the rational design of epitope-based vaccines in a prospectus for the control of aflatoxins and possibly other mycotoxins, and that chitosan coating improved the vectorization of the vaccine by the mucosal route.
