Penggunaan Minyak Zaitun Ekstra Virgin ke dalam Bahan Pengencer Semen terhadap Kualitas Spermatozoa Ayam Lokal
Abstract: The aim ofthis study
was to examine the preservability of local chicken semen in extender added with
various level extra virgin olive oil (EVOO).Semen was collected from three
roosters using massage method. Immediately after collection the semen evaluated
macro and microscopically. Semen demonstrated motility, individually divided into five
tubes. Each of them diluted with ringer fructose that supplemented with 0%, 4%,
6%, 8% or 10% EVOO. Semen was stored in
refrigerator (5 oC) for sixty hours and evaluated every twelve hours for
spermatozoa motility and viability. Results revealed that supplementing the
diluent of roosters semen with EVOO and then storing it for different storage
periods (, , , or hours) resulted in significant (p .)
improvement in spermatooa motility and viabilityin comparison with the control
group.Moreover, used of 8% EVOO surpassed other treatments afterin vitro
storage for up to 60 hoursand resulted fertilizing ability up to 73.81%.This
research conclude that 8% EVOO can be used as antioxidant source for roosters
semen during preservation.
