Optimisation of controlled reproduction protocol in broadhead catfish (Clarias macrocephalus Günther, 1864) using Ovopel™: Effect of different hormonal treatment methods on reprodu... by Nguyễn Ngọc Quyến, Nguyễn Thanh Tâm, Thạch Anh Pha, Lý Anh Thuật, Nguyễn Ngọc Lợi, Nguyễn Thị Trúc Quyên, László Horváth, Tamás Müller

“…The values viz. pseudo-gonadosomatic index (PGSI, %), fertilisation rate (FR, %), hatching rate (HR, %), and survival rate (SR, %) showed considerable individual changes among treatments; nevertheless, there was no statistically significant difference between these average parameters of treated batches (P > 0.05). Taking into account hormone doses (economical consideration) as well as invasive and less-invasive hormone administration, the 0.5-pellet Ovopel™ ovarian lavage treatment is recommended for artificial propagation of C. macrocephalus.…”
