In the work presented here we used saponins extracted from Quillaja saponaria and Trigonella foenum graecum (fenugreek) and commercially available Quillaja saponins (Sigma, 52104). The different saponin fractions and concentrations were fed to 7 days post hatch mixed sex Nile tilapia larvae to test for their effect on the sex ratio.
