Summary:The current research aimed at determining the benefits of curcumin analog in improving the liver function to support reproduction of nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The experiment is designed by using a complete random design with seven treatments and three repetitions. The parameter observed is the content of Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT), Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and in the liver tissue. The research results showed that the supplementation of curcumin analog in the pellet can improve the liver tissue growth of O. niloticus, proven by the decreasing concentration of liver's MDA, SGPT and SGOT in the plasma which in total improves the liver function. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the supplementation of curcumin analog into the pellet is able to improve the liver function so as to support the reproduction of O. niloticus, through the vitellogenin synthesis.
