PENINGKATAN PRODUKSI DAN KUALITAS TELUR INDUK BANDENG (Chanos chanos) DENGAN PENAMBAHAN BAHAN PENGKAYA PADA PAKAN

Pakan merupakan salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap performa reproduksi induk ikan bandeng. Ketersediaan pelet komersial yang spesifik untuk pemeliharaan induk bandeng hingga kini belum ada sehingga perlu dilakukan pengembangan pakan untuk menghasilkan performa reproduksi yang lebih baik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan produksi dan kualitas telur induk bandeng melalui aplikasi bahan pengkaya pada pakan. Penelitian dilakukan di unit pembenihan skala lengkap Desa Banyupoh dan Desa Sanggalangit, Bali Utara. Jumlah induk yang digunakan adalah 165 ekor yang dipelihara dalam dua buah bak volume 100 m3 (di Desa Banyupoh) dan 100 ekor yang dipelihara dalam dua buah bak volume 100 m3 (di Desa Sanggalangit). Perlakuan yang digunakan adalah pakan komersial dengan penambahan bahan pengkaya (pakan uji) dan tanpa penambahan bahan pengkaya pakan (pakan kontrol). Bahan pengkaya berupa emulsi yang terdiri atas lesitin, minyak cumi, minyak ikan, minyak jagung, vitamin E, dan vitamin C yang dicampur dalam pakan dengan dosis sebesar 120 g/kg pakan. Pakan diberikan secara at-satiation dengan frekuensi 2-3 kali sehari. Penelitian berlangsung selama 10 bulan. Parameter yang diamati meliputi frekuensi pemijahan, produksi, dan kualitas telur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan bahan pengkaya dalam pakan mampu meningkatkan frekuensi pemijahan induk dengan rerata sebanyak lima kali/bulan di unit pembenihan skala lengkap Desa Banyupoh dan empat kali/bulan di unit pembenihan skala lengkap Desa Sanggalangit, serta dapat meningkatkan produksi telur masing-masing sebesar 102% dan 56% dibandingkan pakan kontrol. Teknik penambahan bahan pengkaya pada pakan dapat diterapkan pada pemeliharaan induk bandeng untuk mendukung produksi telur dan frekuensi pemijahan yang baik.Feed is one of the factors affecting the reproduction performance of milkfish broodstock. Hatcheries use mostly commercial pellets to feed broodstock despite that it is not a natural feed for milkfish. Thus, the food has to be enriched to maintain or improve the spawning performance of milkfish broodstock. The purpose of this study was to improve spawning performance of milkfish broodstock through the application of enriched-formulation feed. The study was conducted at two milkfish hatcheries in Banyupoh and Sanggalangit villages, North Bali. The number of broodstock used at Banyupoh village hatchery were 165 ind reared in two 100 m3concrete tanks. In the hatchery at Sanggalangit Village, 100 fish were reared in two 100 m3 concrete tanks. The feed enrichment formulation used a mixture of lecithin, squid oil, fish oil, corn oil, vitamin E, and vitamin C. The feed enrichment formulation was prepared in emulsion form and mixed with 120 g/kg dosage of feed. As a control, the feed used was without enrichment formulation. The feeding frequency was 2-3 times per day to satiation. The experiment was carried out for 10 months. The parameters observed included egg production, egg quality and spawning frequency. The results showed that the enriched feed had increased the spawning frequency of broodstock up to five times/month at the hatchery in Banyupoh and four times/month at Sanggalangit hatchery. Egg production also had increased to 102% (Banyupoh) and 56% (Sanggalangit) compared to the control feed. This feed enrichment formulation has the potential in broodstock milkfish rearing to improve the egg production and spawning frequency.

The objective of this study was to obtain enriched eggs with low cholesterol content. Forty-eight laying hens (strain Dekalb Warren) aged 72 weeks were distributed into six treatment groups as follows: 1) Laying hens fed diet without Sauropus androgynus leaf extracts (SALE), fish oil and vitamin E (P0) as the control; 2) Laying hens were fed diet with 27 g SALE/kg diet, but without fish oil (P1); 3) Laying hens were fed diet with 27 g SALE/kg diet, 1.5% fish oil (P2); 4) Laying hens were fed diet with 27 g SALE/kg diet, 1.5% fish oil and 60 mg vitamin E/kg diet (P3); 5) Laying hens were fed diet with 27 g SALE/kg diet, 3% fish oil (P4); 6) Laying hens were fed diet with 27 g SALE/kg 3% fish oil and 60 mg vitamin E/kg diet (P5). Experimental results showed that the treatments affected (P <0.05) egg production, thick eggshell, egg white height, yolk color, the odor of eggs after the split (P <0.05). It was shown that the treatments had no effect on the contents of protein, fat, β-carotene of eggs but affected the contents of cholesterol and vitamin E of eggs. In conclusion, the treatments improved egg quality and increased egg Vitamin E but reduced egg cholesterol.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (α-tocopherol acetate) on egg production, egg quality, lipid peroxidation status (measured as MDA), and some serum metabolites in laying hens (Hy-Line) maintained at a low ambient temperature (6°C). One hundred and twenty laying hens (18-wk-old) were divided into four groups, 30 hens per group. The laying hens were fed either a basal diet or the basal diet supplemented with either 250 mg of L-ascorbic acid/kg of diet, 250 mg of α-tocopherol acetate/kg of diet or 250 mg of L-ascorbic acid plus 250 mg of α-tocopherol acetate/kg of diet. Although feed consumption of the hens was similar (P > 0.05) among treatments, supplemental vitamin C and E significantly increased final body weight, egg production, and improved feed efficiency (P < 0.05). Egg weights were also greater (P < 0.05) in hens supplemented with the combination of vitamin C and E than that of hens supplemented either vitamin or no vitamin (control). Haugh unit did not change upon each vitamin supplementation, but the combination of the vitamin supplement yielded a higher Haugh unit (P < 0.05). Each dietary supplement of vitamin C and vitamin E improved the egg quality (P < 0.05) resulting in a greater specific gravity, thicker egg shell, and heavier egg shell weight. Separately or as a combination, supplemental vitamin C and E decreased MDA, glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride concentrations (P < 0.05). Results of the present study showed that supplementing vitamin C and vitamin E, particularly as a combination, improved the performance of cold-stressed laying hens, offering a potential protective management practice in preventing cold stress-related losses in performance of laying hens. Results of the present study also indicated that the effects of vitamin C and vitamin E are additive.

Laying Performance

Two hundred and forty laying hens were fed diets supplemented with vitamin C and selenium (Se). Vitamin C was added at 0 or 200 mg/kg, and Se was added as sodium selenite or selenized yeast at 0.3 mg/kg. The feed intake and egg production were measured, and egg quality parameters were determined. Supplementation of the basal diet with Se significantly increased the laying performance; however, vitamin C significantly decreased feed intake and egg production. Vitamin C increased vitamin E concentration in the yolk. Both selenite and Se-enriched yeast increased the vitamin E concentration in the yolk and the Se concentration in the yolk and albumen. The oxidative stability of yolk lipids was improved in hens fed diets supplemented with sodium selenite, but not in those fed diets supplemented with Se-yeast. After 28 days of storage, however, the beneficial effect of selenite on lipid stability ceased. The supplementation of the basal diet with vitamin C significantly worsened the oxidative stability of yolk lipids, indicating that vitamin C acted as a pro-oxidant. Thus, vitamin C increased the laying performance and influenced some traits of egg quality. The combined supplementation of vitamin C and Se did not prove to be successful.

We have examined the effect of subchronic methidathion (MD) administration on heart damage, and have evaluated possible ameliorating effects of a combination of vitamins E and C against MD toxicity. The experimental groups were: control group, rats treated with 5 mg/kg MD and rats treated with 5 mg/kg body weight MD plus vitamin E and vitamin C (MD+Vit). The groups were given MD by gavage 5 days a week for four weeks at a dose level of 5 mg/kg/day (MD and MD+Vit) by using corn oil as the vehicle. Vitamin E and vitamin C were injected at doses of 50 mg/kg i.m. and 20 mg/kg i.p., respectively, after the treatment with MD in the MD+Vit group. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined in the heart tissue, and the levels of cardiac troponin I (TnI) in serum. An autoanalyser was used to determine the serum activities of cholinesterase (ChE). Histopathological examination was carried out in the heart tissue. MDA significantly increased in the MD group as compared to controls (P <0.01). When MD was given concurrently with vitamins E and C, the increase in MDA was significantly less (P <0.01). ChE activity significantly decreased in the MD group as compared to controls (P <-0.01). When MD was given concurrently with vitamins E and C, the decrease in ChE activity was significantly higher (P <-0.05). The serum TnI levels significantly increased in the MD group as compared to controls (P <-0.01). When MD was given concurrently with vitamins E and C, the increase in the serum TnI was significantly less (P <-0.01). MD caused the diffuse loss of striation and myocytolysis of the cardiomyocytes, whereas the combination of vitamins E and C caused a significant decrease in these effects of MD. In conclusion, subchronic MD administration caused heart damage and, in addition, treatment with a combination of vitamins E and C after the administration of MD reduced heart damage caused by MD.
