Giant grouper is Protogynous hermaphrodites
This kind of sexuality raises several problems for brood-stocks management, concerning the prediction of natural sex inversion (age and/or
size) and the artificial control of sex. Steroid treatments have been used successfully in several grouper species in order to control sex in fish culture.
of nutrients for the developing embryo and elevated levels in female fish plasma signal gonadal development preceding spawning In oviparous fish where the developing embryo is dependent on the store food in the yolk, Vtg levels in the eggs could indicate its capability to support embryonic growth.
growth (from the previtellogenic oocytes to vitellogenic oocyte, up to the tertiary yolk globule stage) After their secretion into blood in maturing females, Vtg are transported to the ovary where they are selectively sequestered proteolyticall processed into the lipovitellin and phosvitin, the prodominent yolk protein.
induced hepatic synthesis of Vtg, its secretion and transport in the blood to the ovary, and its uptake into maturing oocytes.
in males and immature females Both males and females have the gene for Vtg, but normally is produced in highest concentration in mature females undergoing oogenesis. Synthesis of Vtg may also be induced by oestogen treatment ( Estradiol ) of immature females and males Female have low levels of plasma Vtg, their eggs likely will be of lower quality
Vitellogenin as biomarkers
NRC (1987) defined biomarkers as indicators of
events in biological systems or samples Biomarker is: "a characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biologic processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention. Classified into Biomarkers of exposure, which is the identification of an exogenous substances (Vtg) within the biological system, the interactive between a compound substances and the endogenous components, or other events in the biological system related to exposure.

METHODOLOGY
Series of experiments
1. Induction of Vitellogenin by used Estradiol
categories Categorize: 1. Induced males by Estradiol 2. Female naturally(+ve control) 3. Male naturally (-ve control)
Blood Sampling

Protein characterization
Hormone preparation
Hormone injection
Mix the sample with sample buffer (2:1) & boil 5 min
Remove the gels and stain with coomasive brilliant blue overnight
that depend upon their net charge, size, and shape Gel Electrophoresis; separation by charge (separation of in a media as gels) in a media as porous gel (polyacrylamide) : gels & staining SDS-PAGE: Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; proteins treated with ionic detergent that separates according to size SDS binds to protein @ 1 SDS/2 amino acid thus proportional to a protein's Molecular Weight

will choose for this experiment. Giant grouper (body weight 35.045 kg) used in this study were reared separately in 150 ton indoor tank. At first , dose of Estradiol was 10 mg/kg for High Dose and 1 mg/kg for Low dose . Results shows, High Dose ; 100% mortality and Low dose 75% mortality. Finally; High dose = 0.5 mg/kg and Low dose 0.05 mg/kg was use in this experiment (3 pcs/ treatment)
hormone pellet with using cholesterol powder + Estradiol (Source Syndell). 9 fish reared in normal condition will implant with hormone E2 Estradiol Every month; Implant with pellet hormone and blood will sampling Keep in -20oC prior analysis. Implant will follow in every month until the sixth month. All sample are subjected for same analysis above.

Conclusion
Vtg has confirm found in female , not in male Vtg has marked at 187 molecular weight kDa Vtg has confirm found in induced unknown female by Estradiol AND slowly can produced at High dose of 0.05 mg/kg (4 months) and low dose of 0.5 mg/kg (2 months) Can be use as biomarker reproductive in Giant Grouper Tiger grouper also shows same pattern on vtg in response to testing on sex reversal and induction of vtg.
