::€OMp6uND OR COMPOSITION FOR USE m THE PREVENTION ANP/ØR TREATMENT OF AN EéTOPAimSITIÉ COPETOO INFESTATION OR INFECTION IN FISH. Field of the invention The present invention relates to QuHlaja Sapomna; saponins or a composition comprising -Qpøap Saponarta saponins for use in the prevention and/or treatment of ectoparasitic infection or infestation in fish. The present invention also relates to a method for the manufacture of a fish feed comprising OuiPaja Saponana saponins. Background of the invention Ectoparasitic copepods are copepods that feed on the mucus, epidermal tissue and/or blood of fish,: Ectoparasitic copepods include sea lice, which includes copepods within the family Cailgldae, This family includes around 162 Lepeophtheirus and 268 Caiigus species, Ectoparasitic copepods .such as sea lice may cause physleai and enzymatic damage at thesite of attachment on the fish which results in ahrasion-like lesions that may vary in their nature and severity. A sea lice infection itself may cause a generalized chronic stress response in fish since feeding and attachment cause changes in the mucus consistency and damage the epithelium resulting in the ioss of blood and fluids, electrolyte changes and cortisol release; These changes can decrease the Immune response and affect negatively the feed intake leading to a significant reduction of growth and performance. Sea lice infections also make the fish susceptible to other diseases and may as a secondary infection be d possible^ vector for other pathogens like salmon aiphs virus (Pancreatic disease), infectious Salmon Anamis virus (ISAv) and Piscinckettsia salfoonis. The degree of damage is also dependent on the species of sea lice, the developmental: stages df the sea lice present, and the number of sea lice Oh the fish. Economic losses caused by ectoparasitic copepods such as sea lice can be tremendous and significant research effort has been dedicated to treat, control and prevent such diseases in aquaculture production. Moreover, ectoparasitic infestations/infeetions in farmed fish are not only harmful for the cultivated fish, they also represent a constant and severe thread for wild populations, which can be infected fey the farmed fish. This is another reason why an effective control and treatment of ectoparasitic copepods and other infectious diseases is of great importance. Ectoparasitic copepods of the family Callgidae was first Identified in Chile during i 997 in Atlantic salmon, From 1997 and until a few years ago; sea lice of the family Lepeophtheiras and Csfigus was treated with emamectin benzoate. Unfortunately, the efficiency of emamectin benzoate has diminished significantly ;due to the excessive use and lack of rotation with other fish-specific anfiparasitic compounds. Such compounds include organophosphates, pyrethroids, hydrogen peroxides and chitl.n synthesis inhibitors. At present, the strategy applied to decrease Infestations/infeetions with sea lice is a combination of emamectin benzoate and newer pesticides such as Deltamethrin, Cypermethrin, Azametofos and Hydrogen peroxide administrated by immersion. The effectiveness of this strategy however, has not reached the level expected and infestations/infeetions caused by sea Ice still poses a huge problem to the farming industry. Hewer strategies to decrease infestations with ectoparasitic copepods includes immunestimuiants such as beta-glucans, essentia! oils (carvacrdi, thymol and their combinations), and other outraceuticals such as nucleotides and mannan-oiigosaechatides, organic minerals like zinc and therapeutic levels of vitamin C. Such strategies may be applied alone or in combination with the chemical strategies mentioned· above. Fish-specific antiparasitic compounds,, such as compounds capable of preventing and/or treating ectoparasitic copepods like sea lice, should preferably be non-toxic for the fish in the applied concentrations and from an environmental point of view, the compounds should be fast and easily degradable in the natural environment without any unfeyourabie and harmful accumulation in the nutritional chain. When supplied with the diet, such compounds should either be degraded or excreted fey the organism after a reasonable time period. This is especially important since fa rmed fish will eventually be consumed by humans . In Chile over the last couple of years,, the economic losses recorded doe to the management of sea lice outbreaks has beco.me:όdedf'the^most impoH^ntdtems-'In· the Salmon and Trout production costs. In this scenario the development of alternative treatments for the control of ectoparasitic copepod infestations/infectlons such as infestations/lnfections caused by sea lice, is urgent In this respect, it would be especially advantageous if such treatment could be included in: the fish feed« Summary of the invention Thus, do object of the present invention relates to a compound or composition for use id the prevention and/or treatment of ectoparasitic infestations or infections in fish. In particular, it may be seen as an object of the present invention to provide a compound or composition that solves the above mentioned problems of the prior art ~ e,g, by being essentially non-toxic for the fish in the applied concenthations when incorporated into a fish feed, Thus, one aspect of the invention relates ta Qu$&ja Ssponaria saponlns or a composition comprising QuiifajéJBapppiøti$ ^pdftfns' for: use in the prevention and/or treatment of ectoparasitic infection Of infestation In fish . Another aspect of the present mvention relates to the use of QuPlaj& S&ponaria sapdnms or a composition comprising Quiilaja Saponaria saponlns for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or prevention: of ectoparasitic copepod infection or infestation in fish. Yet another aspect of the present Invention is to provide a method of treating and/or preventing ectoparasitic copepod infection or infestation in fish, said method comprising oral administering to; said fish Quiliaja Saponaria or a composition comprising Quiliaja Saponaria saponins. Still another aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for the manufacture of a fish feed, comprising the steps of combining Quiliaja Saponaria saponins or a composition comprising Quiliaja Saponaria saponins with approved and/or authorised fish feed ingredients and obtaining a fish feed comprising Quiliaja Saponaria' saponins, Description of the figures Figure X shows thetoxldty of Quiliaja saponaria saponins on Ceiigus. the:dose *ppm'f'1d: figure 1 refers to experiments conducted: with Quiliaja high extract which comprises 20% Quiliaja saponaria saponins - the ddsc thus corresponds to 0, U-L· 10 and :i 00 ppm Quiliaja saponaria saponins.

The counting considered the following life cycle stages: Chalimvst adult females and males and gravid females. The infestation rate calculated is expressed as a percentage. The values represent the mean of 5 cages per condition £ BE. (*) statisticaiiy significant difference. One way AMOWA analysis at P<0.050. the present invention will now be described in more detail in the following, Detailed description of the' invention The present inventors have surprisingly discovered: that saponins from Quiiiaja saponaria m vitro presents a high toxicity to Caiigus. Moreover in vivo studies performed by the present inventors show a significant, reduction of Caiigus in Atlantic salmon; fed with a feed comprising Quiiiaja saponaria saponins compared to a control group fed with a traditional feed. Thus., one embodiment the present invention pertains to Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins or a composition comprising Quiiiaja Saponaria". saponins for use In the prevention and/or treatment oflectoparésltic infection or Infestation in fish. in another embodiment; the present Invention pertains to the use of Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins Or a composition comprising Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or prevention of ectoparasitlc copepod infection or infestation in fish. A further embodiment of the present invention pertains to a method of treating and/or preventing ectoparasitlc copepod infection or infestation in fish, said method comprising administering to said fMxQmiiaja Saponaria saponins or a composition comprising Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins, It is to be understood that the term "prevention" also covers prophylactic use of the compound, the medicament or method disclosed above. Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins Quiiiaja (Qaiiiaja saponaria) is a tree native to Chile, The inner bark of Quiiiaja saponaria can be reduced to powder and employed as a substitute for soap due to the presence of saponimiThm, Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins may also be referred to as inner bark of Quiiiaja saponaria. They may be provided as a powder or liquid, and may be in 0 purified, partly purified or native state, Saponins are mainly produced by plants, but also by lower marine animals and some bacteria (Yøshiki et al., 1998; Riguers, 1997), Saponins derive their name from: their ability to dissolve in water to form colloidal solutions that produce foam upon shaking:, these: molecules consists of a group of glycosides with surface active properties that distinguish these compounds from other glycosides. Quitt&ja Sapanana saponins consist of a sugar moiety,: usually comprising glucose, galactose, glucuronic acid,: xylose, rhamnose or methyl pentose, glycosidicaily linked to a hydrophobic agiyeone also refee red to as a sapogenin. The sapogenih can be a triferpenoid or a steroid or derivative thereof (Francis at ah, 2005), Saponins from QuiM&ja saponan'a belongs to the group of triterpenoid saponins and wiil in the following be termed Quiiiala saponins or QuMaja Saponaria saponins. Although saponins play a key role in the defence response of plants against the, insects attack, & is believed that saponins exert a negative effect,on animals if present in an animal diet in moderate to high concentrations (Cheeke, 19%), in fact dietary saponins derived from different plants have been considered as the etlologlcai factor of a significant reduction of feed intake and impairment of productive performance of saimonid fish (Mswinger, 1994;Bureau et ai., 1998). thus, in one embodiment of the present invention the QuIHajaSapomm saponins are terpenoid saponins. Terpenoid saponins may be selected from the group consisting of mo noterpenoid saponins, diterpenoid saponins and triterpenoid saponins. In a preferred embodiment the terpenoid saponins are triterpenoid saponins:. The chemicai formula of a triterpenoid saponin is shown in figured, B&apamsitic ccpapod As mentioned above ectoparasitic copepods are copepods that feed on the mucus, epidermal tissue ahb/or blood of fish. Sea lice are ectoparasltic copepods and belong to the family Caligidae, This family includes around 162 LepeophtPems aM 288 Caligm species. Thus, in an embodiment of the present invention the ectoparasihc copepod may be sea Hee. In a further embodiment the sea lice may be of the family Caligidae. In a further embodiment the sea dice may be of the speciestMpeaphthBiFm or Caligus and more specifically they may be selected from the group consisting of Lepeophtheirus saim&ais, Caiigus eiongalus and Caligus rogercrmseyL Sea lice of different iife stages has been found on fish - such life stages include but is not limited to Cfialimus /, Chaiimus IJ, Chaiimus II!y Chaiimus IV, pre-adults, adult sea iice and gravid females, Many ectoparasites such as sea lice are specific with regards to host genera . For example X, saimonis has a high specificity før salmon Ids, Including the widely farmed Atlantic salmon (Satmo salar), L saimonis may also parasitize other salrhonids to varying degrees, Including brown trout (sea trout: Salma irutta), arctic char (Se/ve/mgs aipinus) and all species of Pacific salmon. Cailgm rogercresseyi has been recognized as the major parasite of farmed salmon in Chile, It was first reported in 1997 in Atlantic salmon. Currently the most susceptible reported hosts are Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout, Caligus mgsrcresseyi also parasitizes wild species, being the Patagonian bienny (Bieginops m&clovinus) one of the most important due to Its role as reservoir and spreader of Caligus to farmed: salmonid fish, Fish with sea iice occur In fish. In ths present context the terms '‘infestation" and infection* are used herein interchangeably since: some scientific articles written in English use the terms "infection* or "infestation" to develop a matter that explains diseases caused by parasites. Thus,: in am-embodiment of the present invention the fish is of the family Salmon ieiae or may he of the subfamily Saimomnae, In a preferred embodiment the fish may be of a genus selected from the group consisting of SaimOf Qnmrhymhusand Saiveiinus. If the fish is of the genus Saimo the fish may be selected from tbe group consisting of Atlantic salmon {Salma satar'L), Adriatic trout (Salmo obtusimsMs}f Flathead trout {Salmoplatycaphalas}, Marble trout (Salmo ietoica) and Sm/an trout {Salmo ischchan), Salrnoh is produced by mixing the eggs from one female saimon With the miit of onetmele salmon for fertilization, Once the eggs have· hardened, they are transported to a hatchery for incubation, Each egg; batch: is incubated se paratoly in Heath trays for appfoxfmafeiy S~8 weeks until they reach the eyed stage and wii! hatch after a total of approximately 9 weeks. Upon hatch, the aievins or sac fry Will continue to develop using the nutrients m their yoik sacs,: When their yolk sacs are almost consumed, the young fry are ready to feed. Once the young fry are onto feed they grow quickly dyer the next 6 to 12 months in freshwater. The foy grow to become parr/fingeriings and finally undergo developments! changes that prepare them 'for iife In saltwater: as smolts. Smoits ready for saltwater are transported'foom· the hatchery to the marine farms, where they are transferred to the net pens to begin the seawater/saitwater phase of their life cycle. Smolts entered at the sea sites adjust to the saltwater environment and begin feeding. They are fed a high quality diet specially formulated to match the optimal seasonal and life stage requirements of saimon in the wild . Once onto feed, smoits grow quickly in seawaterysaitwater, reaching a kilogram in size in 8 to 8 months. Thus, in an embodiment of the present invention the fish rnay be seieoted from the group consisting of smelts and adult fish. Therefore, the compound, composition and/or feed of the present invention may he administered to fish in the freshwater phase or the seawater/saitwater phase. The invention may be useful to control e.g. parasitic infection with sea lice during the seawater/saitwater stage. However, it may be preferred that the compound, composition and/or feed of the present Invention is administered during the last period of the freshwater phase with the objective to prepare fish before the transfer to seawater/saitwater i.e< as a prevention of a potential ectoparasltic infection or infestation. If the fish is of the genus Oncomyndws the fish may be selected from the group consisting of Chinook salmon {Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), Churn salmon (Oncorhynciws keta$*Coho salmon (Sm&rbynchas klsutch), Pink saimon χφ&ΡόφγηΦυ$ §orbtméa)i' saimoh $Omårftfåehti&nerka^ Iviaéu salmon Ønmrhynchus mssou)f Biwa trout (Qmarpynchus rfrodums), Cutthroat tmut 0nm&yn^usoiarkiijf&3inhaw trout (Onmrhynchus mykissj arid Mexican Golden Trout (Oncorhynchus chrysogastérT If the fish is of the genus Saiyeiinm the fish may be Arctic char (SaimUnus alpin us).

The invention will now be described in further details in the following non-limiting examples and figure,: wherein Examples Toxidfty of Quiiiaja saponaria saponins on Caiigus, The ex peri ment was carried out under in vitro conditions. Ten adults Caiigus r&gércressayf miotai, five females plus five males, were deposited in a Petri plaque and incubated with 0, . Q,5> 50 and 500 ppm of Quiiiaja high extract, and maintained in an incubator chamber at 12° C 4 0,5 and under controlied Oxygen saturation. Survival of Caiigus was evaluated 24 hours after challenge. Each challenge condition was assessed In dupilcate. The Quiiiaja high extract comprises 20 % w/w Quif^a Saponaria saponins. Survival of Caiigus was evaluated 24 hours after challenge. Each challenge condition was assessed in duplicate. As can be seen from Figure I, it was observed that mortally of Caiigus presented a dose response pattern achieving a 50:, 85 and 100% of mortaiity at 0.5,. 50 and 500 ppm of Quiiiaja high extract (which thus corresponds to 0.1,10 and 100 ppm of Qmiiaja Saponaria saponins): respectively. Both females and: males presented; a; ;sittilaf sensitivity to each dose of Quiiiaja Saponaria saponins tested. Example 2 Effect of QuiBajB saponarm sapommon the infection rate with Caiigus in Atlantic salmon {Salmo s&iarj. The experiment was carried out at Pundacidn Chile aquaculture research facilities (Puerto Montt, Chile;). X2SQ Atlantic salmon smolt of 120 g which had no previous contact with Caiigus were distributed in 25 fiberglass tanks of 0.4 rnf with full salinity water and acciimatedrduring :2l days fed:with a commercial diet (i.e. control diet with the commercial name "CPK 4mm"). Later fish from this group were fed to satiation with: (i) control (diet X) or (ii) 1000 ppm of Quiiiaja high extract (which corresponds to 200 ppm Qmliaja sapmaria saponins (diet 2) during 42 days. Fish were .challenged by immersion with €&jigmrogmt*res$eyt'.(42·©opepodids per fish) by adding the said copepodids to the water in the tanks where the fish were maintained, with the objective to evaluate the effect of each diet on growth fish were weighted at the start, and at day 52 of the trial . Uneaten feed was collected in ail tanks after finishing the feeding, weighted and stored. Each experimental condition was carried out in five replicates. As can be seen from Figure 2, feeding with diet 2 resulted in a 44.3% of reduction of number of Caiigus per fish compared with the group fish fed diet 1, Prom figures 3A-3C it is clear that there are no statistically significant dlfiferences on SCR (specific growth rate); SFR (specific:feed rate) and FCR (feed conversion rate) between both groups: diet 1 ~ control diet and diet 2 ~ 1300 ppm; of Quitlaja high extract (which corresponds to 200 ppm Qaiiiaja sapomrM saponins). hxample.3. Atlantic salmon maintained in a productive seawater; sit# were distributed in two units each one confbnbsd by 12 cages, unit 1 and unit 2, establishing two groups with similar characteristics. Each of these units; where fed: with either a commercial standard diet (Control) or a test: diet which included QafUaja sdponaria saponins. At the start: of the trial the average body weight offish was 2,5 kg in: both groups. The recording of the number of Caiigus was done In five cages per unit, selected according to their location: two index cages and three central cages. The counting of Caligus was carried out at the start of the feeding regimen and 33 days after to a continuous feeding regimen, .Considering· the average values of the infestation rate ofeachgroup, in figure 5 it is shown that consistently with the results obtained with the to wud trial (Example 2), fish from Unit 2, fed with the Test Diet, presented a 43,6% of reduction of the infestation rate with Caligus compared with fish from Unit 1 {fed with Control Diet) 127% and 225% of infestation rate, respectively, By way of exemplification these·percentages are calculated as follows: the difference between the infestation rate of both groups, expressed in percentage is (127/225)^10© ώ 56.44%, 100-56,44^43,56 or 43,6% less Caligus in the group fed with the diet added with Qulilaja saponarie saponins, 127% and 225% are the infestation rates expressed in percentage!, presented in figure 5, The infestation rate was calculated as follows: (Number of Caligus at day 33)-(Number of Caiigus at basal time) = X, then the infestation rate will be X/f Number of Caiigus at basal time), Then the infestation: rate expressed as percentage is: X/(Humber of Caiigus at basal time)*:! 00. Even more, similar to the results of the to vivo trial (Example 2), the effect exerted by Test Diet on the infestation rate with Caiigus, was attributable to the reduction of ail stages of Chalt mas, The productive parameters SGfC SFR and FCR were not affected by any of the treatments, References Bureau, D.,.
