Composition of Amino Acids in Meretrix meretrix from the Intertidal Area of Nangka Island, Central Bangka
type: item
description: The aim of this study was to analyze the highest content of several amino acid profiles found in M. meretrix. The method used is to analyze amino acids using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The amino acid content in the sample was determined from the comparison between the peak area of the chromatogram and the standard α-aminobutyric acid (AABA). The results showed that M. meretrix has 15 types of amino acids, namely essential amino acids: theonine, valine, methionine, ileucine, leucine, phenylalanine, histidine, lysine, arginine, while non-essential amino acids: aspartic acid, serine, glutamate, alanine, lycine, tyrosine. The highest content of essential amino acids is leucine starting at 4.41%, and non-essential ones are the highest: glutamate ranges from 12.21%, and aspartic acid ranges from 7.12%. The content of glutamate and aspartic acid of M. meretrix from Nangka Island is known to have a higher content than Anadara granosa and Geloina erosa from outside Nangka Island. This shows that M. meretrix from Nangka Island can be a priority raw material for making flavor enhancers, and a material for making natural flavorings. Therefore, the Nangka Island area needs to be managed to preserve the M. meretrix population and benefit the community.

Advances in Nanotechnology for Aquaculture
type: item
description: The increasingly intensive development of aquaculture faces various challenges, including declining water quality, rising disease outbreaks, and low feed efficiency that affect productivity and environmental sustainability. Nanotechnology has emerged as a strategic innovation in aquaculture biotechnology that offers solutions through improvements in water quality, disease control, and nutritional optimization. This study aims to analyze the development, effectiveness, and implications of nanotechnology applications in aquaculture using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Data sources were obtained from international scientific databases covering the period 2015–2025 through a selection process based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The synthesis results indicate that nano-encapsulation and nano-antimicrobial applications are the most rapidly developing areas and have significant impacts on improving growth rate, feed conversion ratio (FCR), nutrient bioavailability, and the survival rate of cultured organisms. In addition, nano-adsorbents and nano-biofilters have the potential to improve water quality in intensive farming systems. Nevertheless, most studies are still conducted at the laboratory scale and leave important issues related to toxicity, bioaccumulation, as well as regulatory and biosafety aspects. Therefore, long-term field trials and the development of environmentally friendly nanomaterials are required to support sustainable implementation. Overall, nanotechnology has great prospects for improving the efficiency and sustainability of aquaculture, however its application must be accompanied by a precautionary approach and evidence-based policies.

Biotechnological Approaches in Post-Harvest Handling and Quality Control of Capture Fisheries Products
type: item
description: Postharvest losses and quality deterioration are major challenges in the capture fisheries sector, affecting food security and economic sustainability. Conventional preservation methods, such as chilling, freezing, and the use of chemicals, have limitations related to safety, environmental impacts, and consumer demand for natural products. Biotechnology approaches offer promising alternatives by utilizing microorganisms, bioactive metabolites, biodegradable biopolymers, molecular detection technologies, and biosensors to improve postharvest management and quality control of fishery products. This Systematic Literature Review (SLR) synthesizes studies published between 2020 and 2026, assessing effectiveness, technological trends, and research gaps related to biotechnology interventions in capture fisheries products. The findings indicate that microbial biopreservation, edible coatings, enzymatic treatments, molecular diagnostics, and nanobiotechnology have significant potential to extend shelf life, ensure safety, and maintain the sensory quality of products. However, most studies remain at the laboratory scale, with limited industrial application and system integration. This review serves as a comprehensive reference for researchers and industry practitioners in developing sustainable, innovative, and efficient postharvest systems.

Mapping Octopus (Octopus cyanea) Fishing Grounds Based on Sea Surface Temperature and Chlorophyll-a In the Waters of Langkai–Lanjukang
type: item
description: This study aims to map the distribution of octopus fishing grounds using a spatial-participatory approach based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and MODIS satellite data with a spatial resolution of 4 km. Spatial analysis was conducted by integrating participatory fishing location data with oceanographic parameters, followed by spatial overlay and distribution mapping to identify potential fishing zones. Primary data were obtained through interviews with fishers, recording of fishing location coordinates, and observations of oceanographic conditions including temperature, salinity, and depth. Secondary data such as satellite imagery and bathymetric maps were used to support the analysis. The results show that octopus fishing grounds are concentrated in the southwestern waters with sea surface temperatures ranging from 28.9–29.5°C and low to moderate chlorophyll-a concentrations (0.167–2.14 mg/m³). In contrast, areas with higher temperatures (>30°C) and high chlorophyll-a concentrations tend not to support octopus presence. This indicates that physical factors of the marine environment, particularly temperature, are the main determinants of octopus distribution compared to primary productivity. These findings have important implications for octopus fisheries management, where zones with optimal temperatures can be prioritized as potential fishing areas. This study produces a spatial map of octopus fishing grounds that can serve as a basis for developing adaptive ecosystem-based management strategies in the Spermonde Archipelago.

Human–Mangrove Relations
type: item
description: The research aims to describe the interplay between humans and mangroves, to define the many types of community dependence on mangroves, and to consider the consequences of this relationship for mangrove conservation efforts. This study employs a descriptive qualitative technique supplemented by simple quantitative data. Data from observations, focus group discussions, questionnaires, and documentation were evaluated using qualitative descriptive analysis. The analysis results were then synthesized to describe the interaction between humans and mangroves. The research findings show that the human–mangrove relationship is reflected in ecological, economic, and socio-cultural benefits. Ecologically, mangroves function as coastal protection and as habitats for aquatic biota. Economically, local communities utilize mangrove resources and aquatic species with high intensity, typically 2–4 days per week, yielding about 4–8 kg of fish, 2–5 kg of crabs, 1–2 kg of shellfish, and 1–3 kg of shrimp. In the socio-cultural dimension, mangroves are closely associated with customary practices and local knowledge. The community depends on mangroves for food, medicine, building materials, firewood, cash income, and other essentials.The community's dependence on mangroves includes their use as a source of food, medicine, building materials, firewood, cash income, and other necessities.The implications of the human-mangrove relationship in Arar Village necessitate a strategy that balances the ecological, social, and economic aspects. Sustainable mangrove protection requires bolstering community capacity, acknowledging local rights and expertise, and promoting cross-sectoral policies.

Biological Aspects of the Pearl Lobster (Panulirus ornatus) as a Sustainable Management Effort in the Waters of Pangkep Regency
type: item
description: Lobster and crayfish are valuable fishery commodities with a stable and growing global demand. The pearl lobster (Panulirus ornatus) is particularly sought after in export markets such as China, Japan, and Vietnam. In Indonesia, pearl lobsters fetch high prices both live and processed, making them a primary target for coastal fishermen. This study examined the biological aspects of pearl lobsters, focusing on size structure, sex ratio, growth patterns, length, and weight. Sampling was conducted twice monthly, measuring size, sex ratio, and length-weight relationships. A total of 203 pearl lobsters were observed, consisting of 90 males and 113 females. The sex ratio was 1:1.2 (44.33% males, 55.67% females), with chi-square analysis indicating no significant difference, suggesting that male and female proportions were balanced around Salemo Island. The size structure ranged from 15 to 103 mm carapace length (CL), with dominant catches at 45 mm CL for males and 50 mm CL for females. The average condition factor was 1.12 for males and 1.15 for females, reflecting good body condition. Growth patterns for length and weight in both sexes exhibited negative allometric growth, indicating that weight increases at a slower rate than length. These findings provide important biological insights that can support the sustainable management and exploitation of pearl lobster populations in Indonesian waters.

Feed Efficiency of Growth Performance of Whiteleg Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) Fed Diets Supplemented with Bioactive Betel Leaf (Piper betle L.)
type: item
description: Vanamei shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) are a major global aquaculture commodity that requires improved feed efficiency and disease resistance to ensure the sustainability of aquaculture. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of supplementing feed with bioactive extract from betel leaf (Piper betle L.) on growth performance, feed efficiency (Feed Conversion Ratio/FCR), and survival rate (SR) of vanamei shrimp. The study was conducted over 58 days using a completely randomized design with four extract dose treatments (0, 3.9, 7.8, and 15.6 mg/kg feed) and three replicates. Betel leaf extract was obtained through ethanol maceration and added to commercial feed. The parameters measured included absolute growth, specific growth rate (SGR), FCR, SR, and water quality. The results showed that supplementation at a dose of 7.8 mg/kg (5×MBC) significantly increased absolute growth (14.10 g) and SGR (1.82%/day) compared to the control (11.20 g and 1.54%/day). The FCR also improved to 1.32 from 1.62 in the control, indicating high feed efficiency. The highest survival rate of 92.3% was also achieved at this dose. The best performance at the moderate dose was attributed to the content of bioactive compounds such as eugenol and chavicol, which enhance digestive enzyme activity and suppress pathogenic bacteria. Higher dose increases did not provide significant additional effects. This study concludes that supplementation with bioactive betel leaf extract at the optimal dose has the potential to significantly improve feed efficiency and growth performance in vanamei shrimp, supporting more sustainable and environmentally friendly aquaculture practices.

Mangrove Vegetation in Tampara Village South Kaledupa District Wakatobi Regency Southeast Sulawesi Province
type: item
description: Mangrove ecosystems represent unique forest formations situated within intertidal zones such as sheltered coastlines, lagoons, and estuaries predominantly inhabited by halophytic vegetation characterized by specialized morphological and physiological adaptations to high salinity and anaerobic substrate conditions. This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive structural analysis of the mangrove community in Tampara Village, Wakatobi Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, carried out from March to June. The evaluated ecological parameters encompassed species composition, density, canopy coverage percentage, and the Importance Value Index (IVI). The research methodology employed the line transect method integrated with quadrat sampling across distinct growth stages: trees (10 x 10 m), saplings (5 x 5 m), and seedlings (2 x 2 m).Taxonomic identification revealed the presence of four dominant species: Rhizophora stylosa, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Rhizophora mucronata, and Rhizophora apiculata. Quantitative analysis indicated that the tree and seedling phases are in a "very dense" condition, reflecting a robust potential for natural regeneration at the basal level. However, the sapling category was classified as damaged or sparse across all observation stations, suggesting environmental pressures or growth transition barriers during the intermediate developmental phase. The highest coverage percentage was recorded by Bruguiera gymnorrhiza at 96.49%, whereas the lowest was observed in Rhizophora apiculata at 2.75%. The maximum IVI of 200% was significantly dominated by Rhizophora stylosa and Rhizophora mucronata, while the lowest IVI stood at 39%. These findings confirm the ecological dominance of the Rhizophora genus within the community structure of the region.

Exploration Exploration of Natural Honey as a Potential Sex Reversal Agent in Guppy (Poecilia reticulata)
type: item
description: Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is one of the most popular freshwater ornamental fish with high economic value, particularly in males, which exhibit brighter coloration and more attractive fin morphology than females. Consequently sex ratio manipulation through sex reversal techniques has been explored to increase male production in aquaculture. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of natural honey as an alternative agent for sex reversal in guppies. The research was conducted from October to November 2025 at the Mini Hatchery, Faculty of Marine Science and Fisheries, Hasanuddin University. The treatments consisted of A (honey 30 ml/L), B (honey 60 ml/L), C (honey 90 ml/L), D (17α-methyl testosterone 0.5 mg/L) and E (control without honey). Pregnant female broodstock were immersed in treatment solutions for 24 hours and subsequently reared until parturition. The observed parameters included the percentage of male offspring and larval survival rate. The results indicated that treatment B (60 ml/L honey) produced the highest male percentage at 71%, followed by A (67%), E (57%) and D (56%) while treatment C caused broodstock mortality resulting in no offspring. The highest survival rate (100%) was observed in treatments A, B, and E. These findings demonstrate that honey at appropriate concentrations can act as a potential natural agent for inducing sex reversal in guppies while maintaining high larval survival. However, excessive honey concentration may induce toxic effects leading to broodstock mortality. Therefore, the optimal concentration of honey for sex reversal in guppies is 60 ml/L.

Effectiveness of Probiotics in Rearing Water on the Culture Performance of Pacific White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) during the Nursery Phase
type: item
description: The nursery phase is a critical stage in the culture of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), as it is highly influenced by water quality, particularly the accumulation of inorganic nitrogen compounds such as ammonia and nitrite. Poor water quality stability can induce stress, reduce growth performance, and increase mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of probiotic application in the rearing water on water quality and the culture performance of whiteleg shrimp during the nursery phase. The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design with four probiotic dosage treatments, namely 0 (control), 2, 4, and 6 mL per 40 L of water, each with three replications. Shrimp at the PL-10 stage were reared for four weeks. Observed parameters included water quality (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate), survival rate (SR), absolute growth, specific growth rate (SGR), and total bacterial count (CFU/mL). Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. The results showed that probiotic application significantly affected water quality, particularly by reducing ammonia and nitrite concentrations at doses of 4 and 6 mL. The 6 mL treatment resulted in the most stable water quality, the highest survival rate (90.33%), and the best growth performance. In conclusion, probiotic application in the rearing water effectively improves the culture performance of whiteleg shrimp during the nursery phase, with an optimal dose of 6 mL per 40 L of water

Perception and Participation of Handline Tuna Fishers in the BPJS Employment Program Membership on Ambon Island
type: item
description: Handline tuna fishers constitute a group of workers in the fisheries sector who face high occupational risks, thereby requiring social security protection for employment. The purpose of this study is to: (1) analyze the perceptions of handline tuna fishers toward BPJS Employment; (2) analyze the participation of handline tuna fishers in the benefits of BPJS Ketenagakerjaan membership; and (3) formulate recommendations to improve the perceptions and participation of handline tuna fishers in BPJS Employment membership. The research was conducted in Seilale Village, Tulehu Village, and Larike Village. The study employed a Likert-scale questionnaire to measure fishers’ perceptions and participation, which were then analyzed using a modified index equation. The results indicate clear differences in perceptions and participation across the three research locations. Fishers in Seilale Village demonstrated very positive perceptions and very high levels of participation in the BPJS Employment program, influenced by the active role of the village government, the intensity of socialization activities, and the provision of contribution subsidies during the initial stage of membership. In contrast, fishers in Tulehu Village and Larike Village exhibited negative to very negative perceptions and very low levels of participation. These conditions are attributed to limited socialization, restricted access to information, weak institutional support, and income uncertainty among fishers. Improving fisher participation therefore requires strengthening institutional roles, implementing continuous socialization, and developing adaptive, locally based social protection policies. Based on the descriptive analysis, six recommendations were formulated to enhance the perceptions and participation of handline tuna fishers in BPJS Employment membership.

Quality and Food Safety of Smoked Fish in Pappolo Village, Tanete Riattang Timur District, Bone Regency
type: item
description: Fish is an animal food that is rich in protein, but it is easily damaged so it requires preservation to extend its shelf life. This study aims to describe the fish smoking process and characterize the quality and food safety of smoked fish produced in Pappolo Village, East Tanete Riattang District, Bone Regency. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach through observation and interviews regarding the smoked fish processing process, as well as a quantitative approach through laboratory testing that includes sensory testing, water content, histamine levels and Escherichia coli. This study is exploratory with the aim of providing an overview of the quality and food safety conditions of smoked fish. The results show that the smoked fish processing in Pappolo Village includes raw material selection, weeding, cutting, skewering and smoking. The results of sensory tests during 48 hours of storage indicate that the smoked fish produced in Pappolo Village meets the minimum value of consumption suitability (≥7) up to 28 hours of storage. The moisture content of smoked tuna was 64.72% and that of smoked stingray was 75.86%. Histamine levels were 22.59 mg/kg and 1.74 mg/kg, both of which still met the safe limit (<100 mg/kg). Escherichia coli showed results of <3 MPN/g, which meets the requirements of SNI 2725:2013. It was concluded that smoked fish from Pappolo Village was suitable for consumption up to 28 hours after smoking, with sensory parameters still meeting the standards. However, the moisture content exceeded the standard limit according to SNI 2725:2013.

type: item
description: Seagrass ecosystems play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of coastal ecosystems. Information on the community structure and condition of seagrass beds is still very limited, with no information available on Satangnga Island in Takalar Regency. The methods used included quadrant transects (1 m × 1 m) for species identification, density and cover measurements, and ecological index analysis. The study identified seven seagrass species: Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, Cymodocea rotundata, Halophila ovalis, Halophila minor, Halodule uninervis, and Syringodium isoetifolium. Cymodocea rotundata had the highest density (65.89 teg./m²), while Thalassia hemprichii had the highest cover (30.11%). Seagrass density ranges from 57,857 to 116,714 teg./m2, categorized as sparse to moderately dense. Seagrass cover ranges from 30.29% to 58.29%, indicating that the seagrass is considered damaged or unhealthy, as its cover is less than 60%. Management through reducing anthropogenic pressure, regular monitoring, and rehabilitation through transplantation are recommended to support ecosystem recovery.

Effect of Trammel Net Setting Depth on the Catch Composition of Penaeid Shrimp and By-catch in South Sorong Waters, Indonesia
type: item
description: Penaeid shrimp fisheries represent an important component of coastal capture fisheries in tropical regions; however, the use of trammel nets is often associated with high levels of by-catch. This study aimed to analyze catch composition across different fishing depths and to evaluate the effect of depth on the quantity and proportion of penaeid shrimp and by-catch in the coastal waters of South Sorong, Southwest Papua, Indonesia. Field experiments were conducted from June to August 2025 across three depth strata (0–5 m, 6–10 m, and 11–15 m) using a standardized trammel net, with a total of 17 fishing trips. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD tests. The results showed that the total catch consisted of 1,759 individuals of penaeid shrimp and 2,757 individuals of by-catch, with by-catch dominating at 61.06%. The highest catch for both shrimp and by-catch occurred in shallow waters (0–5 m). The shrimp catch was dominated by Penaeus merguiensis and Penaeus monodon, which exhibited a strong preference for shallow habitats. ANOVA results indicated that depth had a highly significant effect on both shrimp catch (p < 0.001) and by-catch (p < 0.001). Increasing depth was associated with a reduction in by-catch, but also a decline in shrimp catch. These findings reveal a trade-off between fishing productivity and gear selectivity, highlighting depth as a key factor in optimizing shrimp fisheries management toward more efficient and sustainable practices.

Family Resilience Strategies Among Fishing Households During the Lean Season
type: item
description: This study was conducted to determine the impact of the lean season on fishermen’s family income and to identify the forms of family resilience in dealing with declining income in Mekar Indah Village, Buki District, Selayar Islands Regency. This research was motivated by the condition of fishing communities that highly depend on marine catches, while fishing activities are strongly influenced by weather and seasonal changes. During the lean season, fishermen experience a decline in fish catches, which affects their families' economic conditions. This study used a descriptive, qualitative approach with purposive sampling to select informants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature study. The data analysis technique used the interactive analysis model of Miles and Huberman, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the lean season caused a decline in fishermen’s income due to reduced fishing activities and difficulties in obtaining catches. This condition affected the fulfillment of family needs, forcing fishermen’s families to make various efforts to survive. The forms of resilience found include economic, social, and psychological strategies. Economic strategies were carried out by seeking additional jobs, involving family members in economic activities, and managing household expenses. Social strategies were reflected through mutual assistance among families, neighbors, and fishing patrons. Meanwhile, psychological resilience was shown through patience, mutual support, and maintaining hope in facing difficult conditions. This study is expected to increase understanding of the forms of fishermen's family resilience in facing the lean season.

Leveraging Digital Innovation for Sustainable Fisheries
type: item
description: This study examines the role of information technology in supporting sustainable management of the flying fish (Decapterus spp.) fisheries in Indonesia through a systematic literature review. The implementation of technologies such as Vessel Monitoring Systems (VMS), Automatic Identification Systems (AIS), and digital platforms for marketing and catch reporting demonstrates significant potential to enhance efficiency, transparency, and resource sustainability. These technologies enable real-time monitoring of fishing activities, enforcement of regulations, and optimization of post-harvest supply chains, including reducing losses and increasing product value. However, key challenges include infrastructural limitations, high costs, social resistance, and low digital literacy among traditional fishermen, which may exacerbate social and economic disparities. Additionally, the risk of location data being too precise could accelerate overexploitation. To achieve sustainable and inclusive management, participatory approaches, institutional capacity building, and contextually appropriate technological models are necessary. This research recommends evidence-based policies, user-friendly technological innovations, and multi-stakeholder collaboration to ensure that all fishing communities benefit from technological advancements and contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
