Fish Response

• Vaccination Protocol: In vaccination experiments, healthy grass carp were distributed randomly into control group and bath immunization group (150 fish per group). For bath immunization, fish were immersed in 20 mg L−1 SWCNTs-Aera and the control group was immersed in PBS for 6 h. At the end of the vaccination, grass carp were transferred to different tanks without SWCNTs-Aera for 28 d. After 28 d, 15 fish in each replicate were euthanized in the laboratory through washrag soaked with 20.0 g/m3 MS-222. Sampled fish were dissected immediately with sterile scissors. The intestine, kidney and spleen were aseptically removed from their abdominal cavity, separately, where five fish were sampled for analyzing expression of seven immune-related genes through quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and the experiment was performed in triplicate replicates. Thereafter, the intestine of three fish (15 fish per replicate) were also collected and pooled together as described elsewhere to extract microbial DNA for deep sequencing [29]. After 2 d, the remaining fish (15 grass carp in each replicate) were intramuscularly injected with 6.5 × 104 cfu mL−1A. hydrophila, kept for 10 days and thereafter euthanized for sampling. Subsequently, the intestine was carefully excised and maintained as above, which was also for extracting microbial DNA for deep sequencing. All the samples were placed into sterile polypropylene centrifuge tubes and stored in −80 °C until DNA extraction. All experiments were performed in triplicate (Liu et al., 2015).
