RESUMEN
We prepared mineral oil-based emulsion adjuvants by employing simple self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS). Mineral oil emulsions (3%, 5%, and 7%) were prepared using deionized water and C-971P NF and C-940 grade carbomer solutions with concentrations 0.01% (w/v) and 0.02% (w/v). In total, 15 emulsions were prepared and mixed with a solution containing inactivated Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (J101 strain) antigen and porcine circovirus type 2 antigen to prepare vaccines. Droplet sizes in the submicron range and zeta potential values between - 40 and 0 mV were maintained by most emulsion adjuvants for a period of 6 months. Emulsion adjuvants were regarded safe, and their M. hyopneumoniae-specific IgG, IgG1, and IgG2a titers were either better or comparable to those of aluminum gel.
