Effect of dietary carbohydrate and fat supplementation on the yield and chemical composition of fillet and the location of fat deposition in striped catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus), African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) and snakehead (Channa striata)

Faster growing African catfish can be produced by transgenesis. This study was conducted to investigate the distribution and expression of growth hormone gene (PhGH) in various organs of the transgenic African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) founder (F0). Transgene was detected using the PCR method in various organs, namely pituitary, brain, liver, heart, spleen, kidney, intestine, stomach, muscle, caudal fin, gill and eye. Transgene expression levels were analyzed using the method of reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), -actin gene used as internal controls. The results showed that the PhGH was detected and expressed in all organs of the transgenic African catfish founder. The high level of PhGH expression was found in the liver, pituitary, intestine and brain; smaller amounts were detectable in muscle, spleen, kidneys, heart, and stomach, caudal fin, gill and eyes, range from 0.02-0.75 PhGH/-actin mRNA. The expression levels of PhGH had positive correlation with tissue and body size (P<0.05).

Background: Natural preservatives are compounds produced by natural ingredients that can suppress bacterial growth and development. Natural preservatives are carried out because most of the preservatives circulating are chemicals and unsafe for the body. One of the natural preservatives is by using garlic extract (Allium sativum L). Objective: This study is aimed to determine the effectiveness of the antibacterial garlic (Allium sativum L) as a natural preservative in fresh African catfish (Clarias gariepinus). Method: This research used the Pour Plate iroculation method. African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) which is soaked with garlic (Allium sativum L) with a concentration of 7%, 14% and 21% for 30 minutes, then the fish will be kept at room temperature with a storage period of 24 hours and 48 hours and calculated growth in bacterial numbers with the Colony counter. Result: Based on the research result, it was found that garlic extract (Allium sativum L) can obstruct the effectiveness of antibacterial in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) at a concentration of 14%.

Effect of four types of diluentss and four concentration of DMSO (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) against the motility of African catfish sperm were evaluated after storage at freezing temperatures. The steps in preparation the 16 treatments combination of the diluents are preparation of diluents, mixing diluents with DMSO, packing of semen into 0.3-ml straw, equilibration of semen at 4 °C for 30 minutes, freezing of semen in nitrogen vapor liquid at a height of 6.5 cm for 10 minutes, and subsequently storage of semen in liquid nitrogen (-196 0C) for further analysis of post-thawing motility (PTM). The result showed that the highest level of motility of spermatozoa was in treatment P1D15 (45.7 ± 4.3%) and the lowest was in treatment P2D20 (14.5 ± 13.2%). The best diluent in this observation was diluents containing NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 and NaHCO3. The best concentration was DMSO 15%. While the best interaction between the concentration of DMSO diluents is P1D15 treatments containing NaCl, KCl, CaCl 2 and NaHCO3 with a combination of 15% DMSO concentration. The conclusion of the research is that diluents containing NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 and NaHCO3 with a combination of 15% DMSO concentration can be used in cryopreservation of African catfish semen.
