The biochemical analysis provides valuable information in monitoring fish health and condition. Fish reproduction is one of the factors that strongly influence the organism's internal environment. This study was designed to study the biochemical profile of the blood from female broodstock catfish supplemented with curcumin and thyroxine during vitellogenesis. The study was conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) 2x2 factorial pattern and each treatment consisted of four replications. The first factor is the thyroxine hormone which consists of two doses, i.e. 0 and 0.1 mg/kg of feed. The second factor is the dose of curcumin in feed which consists of two levels, i.e. 0 % and 0.5 %/kg of feed.
Results showed that there were significant differences (p <0.05) in the concentration of glucose, triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in serum, but was not significant differences (p> 0.05) in concentration of protein and cholesterol in serum. The conclusion of this research are the blood chemistry profile of experimental catfish is strongly influenced by the ongoing reproductive activity, and the supplementation of curcumin in catfish broodstock showed a better ability to provide nutrients needed for the synthesis of vitellogenin.
