Current methods to detect hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) infection of penaeid shrimp depend on invasive techniques that require dissecting the organs infected by this virus. However, sacrificing valuable stocks in order to determine their HPV status can be a drawback in the case of breeding programs. A method was developed for HPV detection by applying a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay...

Three shrimps population (Penaeus semesulacatus, Penaeus japonicus,Meta Penaeus monoceros) were investigated for determination of the genetic structure by using (PCR-RAPD) and SDS-PAGE. The results obtained from RAPD technique showed the same percentages of similarity (100%) within the three studied population. On the other hand, the degrees of similarity detected by SDSPAGE were 90%, 87% and 8...

Salah satu tahapan pengolahan udang adalah pemotongan kepala (deheading) yang berfungsi menghilangkan bagian cephalothorax. Cara potong akan mempengaruhi rendemen head less dihasilkan, Selain bentuk ada produk kupas Peeled Tail On (PTO) yaitu masih disisakan batang ekor dan uropod (ekor kipas)nya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui Head Less (HL) diperoleh bahan baku (HO) berbagai spec...

Ovary maturation, oocyte differentiation, and embryonic development in shrimp are highly dependent on nutritional lipids taken up by female broodstocks. These lipids are important as energy sources as well as for cell signaling. In this study, we report on the compositions of major lipids, i.e. phosphatidylcholines (PCs), triacylglycerols (TAGs), and fatty acids (FAs), in the ovaries of the ban...
