“…DHA and EPA fatty acids are found in eel (Anguilla bicolor) (Kusharto et al, 2014) and sea cucumber (Wen et al, 2010). Eel (Anguilla bicolor) is a fish often found in many countries, including Indonesia, Japan, Italy, China, and France (Ahn et al, 2015). However, this fish has not been fully utilized in Indonesia, which can be seen from the public's low consumption of eels (Sasongko et al, 2018).…”

“…Aquaculture has emerged as the most rapidly growing animal food-producing industry in the last two decades (FAO, 2014). Anguillid eels are regarded as an important commercial aquaculture species in East Asia because of their high market demand and nutritional value (Ahn et al, 2015;Shahkar et al, 2015).…”

Indoor recirculating aquaculture systems make light control possible and enable the usage of specific coloured lights to promote the growth and immunity of aquaculture species. Five different LED wavelengths (white light, red light [622 nm], green light [517 nm], blue light [467 nm], and dark) were used in this study to evaluate growth and immunity in the glass eel stage of two high-valued anguillid species, Japanese eel ( Anguilla japonica ) and giant mottled eel ( A. marmorata ). There were no significant differences in growth of the Japanese eel among the groups after 12 weeks of feeding (P > 0.05); the survival rate of each group was over 95%. The giant mottled eel showed better growth in total length and body weight in the red light and dark groups (P < 0.05). Expression levels of immune-related genes were not significantly different between each group of the Japanese eel and the giant mottled eel (P > 0.05). The growth of the Japanese glass eel was not significantly sensitive to different LED wavelengths, while the giant mottled glass eel showed better growth under red light and dark environments. Neither eel species showed significant differences in innate immunity under different LED wavelengths.

“…Eel is a type of fish that contains high protein, vitamins, and fatty acid like omega-3 (EPA and DHA) (Nafsiyah et al, 2018). Omega-3 content in eel oil is expected to be higher than omega-3 content in other fish oils (Widyasari et al, 2014;Ahn et al, 2015;Farah et al, 2018). For instance, a study reported by Widyasari et al (2014) shows that eel oil has 5.16% omega-3.…”

In-vivo Antipyretic Effect of Eel (Anguilla bicolor bicolor) Oil on Yeast-induced Fever on Mice

et al. 2019

Fish oil has been studied for medicinal purposes, including its antipyretic properties. Eel (Anguilla bicolor bicolor) oil, which contains vitamins and fatty acids, including Omega-3 (EPA and DHA), is also expected to have the antipyretic effect. This research aimed to examine the antipyretic activity of eel oil on white mice (Mus musculus L.). An in-vivo study was done on thirty Swiss-Webster strain males mice that previously got 20% yeast-induced fever. Six treatments were applied including normal group (untreated), a negative control group (yeast-treated), a positive control group treated with acetaminophen (1.764 mg/20 g body weight), and three groups treated with eel oil (0.048, 0.096 and 0.192 g/20 g body weight, respectively). The data was analyzed statistically using one way ANOVA then was continued with LSD post hoc test. The results showed that eel oil has significantly reduced yeast-induced hyperthermia on mice five hours after application at doses 0.096 and 0.192 g/20 g body weight. Our finding suggests that eel oil possess antipyretic properties when was applied in certain doses, and this effect is presumably attributed to its high content of fatty acid, including EPA and DHA.
