Fishery, JellyFish

JellyFish
The Pretty and Toxic That Change Medical Word


We are sure ever read, hear and see one of the sea biota that named “Jellyfish”. Disgust! ! ! Some people may be will commented like that when they see Jellyfish washed ashore at coast sand brought wave, soft, ill defined its for and closed sand. But try to see Jellyfish inside the water or giant aquarium that is swimming! So pretty.

Jellyfish one of the kind sea biota that 95% the body consists of water and belong invertebrates. Jellyfish can lived at almost all climate. The body have tentacles (organ that resemble proboscis) without eye and brain. Some of Jellyfish have mouth and another not. have a air bubble on the top the body and blue coloured meat clod, that's why called “jellyfish”.

Why pretty???

Created transparent, some of kind Jellyfish also can send out light from the body. The light on Jellyfish body is not only accessories, but also as a means of self defense from predator. At the Jellyfish chased by predator, the body will take light. At Jellyfish bited, body part like a bell will extinguish the light, temporary tentacles that still shine to released from the body with a purpose to cheat predator. Jellyfish will running away at the time of predator chase the shine tentacles.

How about poisonous? ? ?

Some kinds of Jellyfish have a poison. The poison functions as a self defense for jellyfish doesn't has light. One of the kind of Jellyfish called "box jellyfish" have very lethal poison. The poison contains toxin that assault heart, nerve system and skin cell. Besides that, bite from Jellyfish tentacles also evoke ill taste. Bite also can cause shock in human, ill taste and wound from bite can be a few week, and also can causes death.

how come Jellyfish change medical world? ? ?

Osa shimomura, one of the chemistry expert from Japanese with 3 the friends does hunt Jellyfish at 1961 because she is spellbound by pretty light bright green coloured in Jellyfish. Interested of it, Osa shimomura doing a research. One year then found the result, the green colour that glows in Jellyfish body is a collection of protein called “green fluorescent protein”.

Invention of Osa shimomura give inspiration to all biochemist in the world. If the green protein pasted in other protein or a structure in cell, researchers can watch closely how that complex cell engine works. With this protein and helped with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology, researchers can follow process in human that ever seen before, like brain nerve cell development or how does cancer cell scattered. Green colour in protein is used as a sign movement cell. The green protein will come to move when cell moves, researchers can easily detect what's wrong with cell or human body when get disease infection.

Furthermore, various invention success found by researchers with the Jellyfish green protein helping. With the invention, Osa shimomura chosen as prizewinner noble chemistry at 2008. Amazing..!!!

Fish, The Journey of Salmon Fish

The Journey of Salmon Fish

Salmon fish, one of the many fish species that contain a good nutrient for human body. Salmon fish can alive at bargain and sea waters and one of the fishery product commodity that many consumption by the people. This is a little story about salmon fish cycle of life.

The Journey of salmon fish start at waters bargains (river) and here the egg of salmon fish will be hatch (usually on November), and here also alive struggle salmon fish begin. Level of the death salmon fish in this stage is very big. From the total of egg, more less half success to be hatch.

Salmon fish just hatch called "alevin", live between gravel stack at base the river and consume plankton. Alevin will be move out from the gravel river base (on May/June) when the provision of food is exhausted. In this stage, salmon fish called "fry". Fry will be grow and round into smolt, then move to river estuary aims to ocean.

The first year lived at ocean is a critical stage for salmon fish with the predator. Pinnipeds is a most predator for a salmon fish, they eat so many salmon fish in the ocean. Beside that, sea lion, bear, bird and human also be a threat for salmon fish continuance life.

Long life at the ocean (4-7 year), salmon fish grow and big enough to reproduction. Here is the unique, salmon fish do they reproduction process at the first place they life begin (river). Salmon fish life in groups, one group
of salmon fish will meet with another group on they trip return to the river.

Salmon fish return trip to the river loosing so much time (in month count), passing reef, swim to oppose the stream flow, jump and climb the waterfall (jump power of salmon fish achieve 3 meters), etc. One more thing, salmon fish ever eat anything during the trip. Existing body fat in salmon fist will be a food source until they arrive to the river. This body fat reservist used will causes physical change in salmon fish. In this stage is many fishes salmon that die, they die because wound, exhaustion and predator. Finally only several salmon fish safe and arrive to the river hilt.

At the river hilt, salmon fish in tired condition will dig soil at the base river and make a hole (25-30cm) for nest using they tails (hind fin). There is about 3.000-8.000 of salmon fish egg will be take in this hole. After that, a couple of salmon fish will close the hole and live around the hole until they die because out of energy. A part of salmon fish dead body be eaten by animal at the base river, and another part will decay by the bacteria. This process will make a natural fertilizer at the base river. Natural fertilizer be eaten by plankton and little insect at the base river. In the end, plankton and little insect will be a main food for salmon fish that hatch one month to go.

That's a little story about the journey of salmon fish.

Fish, Omega 3

Omega 3 In Sea fish
For Child Brain Intelligence and Prevent Degenerative Disease

Lucky we live in the country that has a sea expanse very vast with all resources inside the sea, especially sea fish. Although the compare fish consumption level of Indonesian people still low with another country, but every year the graph always increase.

The sea fish have a complete various nutrient, and it very important for human body. Consuming sea fish early can increase development and child brain intelligence and prevent incoming several
degenerative disease (disease because increase human age ).

One of the important nutrient value in sea fish is
omega 3 (EPA and DHA). Some kinds of sea fish with omega 3 nutrient value and many sold at Indonesian market is tuna fish, mackerel fish, flying fish, lemuru fish and many more.

Omega 3 participating for intelligence and prevention some diseases degenerative begun at the somebody stays in pregnancy. Therefore, very suggested to consumings foodstuff that contain omega 3 when mothers on pregnant. Besides that, omega 3 also functioned to help formation smoothness various fetus vital organ (like nerve system and brain, heart, the five sense, sex organ, etc) and finally can decrease defect risk when the baby was born.

The omega 3 function doesn't stop until there. Omega 3 also have a important function for smoothness nerve cell process (include brain cell) and then can increase child intelligence at the time they grow.

Omega 3 also have a important function for healthy. When human getting old, they susceptible will be hit by various disease along with decrease they body invulnerability system. Permanently consuming food that contain omega 3 can increase stamina and it make not easy be attacked disease. Omega 3 in sea fish also can prevent incidence heart sickness and stroke by decrease cholesterol rate in blood.

From above explanation, we know how big omega 3 benefit for human body, begin from fetus, baby up to adult. Isn't wrong if Indonesia government and medical nutrient expert incites to consuming fish early to the people.

We get many benefit only from omega 3 nutrient in sea fish. Still many sea fish nutrient that very useful for human body, like protein, vitamin, mineral, etc. Don't forget, all of that can't separate from fresh fish election to consumption.
