ABSTRACT
Cattle tick infestations remain an important burden for farmers in tropical area like in New Caledonia. With the development of acaricide resistance, tick vaccines should be an attractive alternative to control ticks but their efficacy needs to be improved. In this study three adjuvants were studied in an experimental tick vaccine with a Bm86 protein to assess their performance in terms of antibody productions and adverse reactions following vaccinations. The water-in-oil adjuvant ISA 61 VG led to higher antibody titers compared to a water-in-oil-in-water adjuvant ISA 201 VG and an aqueous polymeric adjuvant Montanide Gel 01. Vaccinations with these three adjuvants did not produce severe general reaction but an increase in skin thickness was observed especially with both oil-based emulsions. These results indicated that the water-in-oil adjuvant is the most interesting to use for this vaccine but local adverse reactions remain an issue.
