Quality Of Pe Buck Sperm Stored In Different Packaging
oai:ojs.animalproduction.net:article/4AI for cattle has been develop in Indonesia in contrast, AI for small ruminants (sheep and goat) are less developed. Its due to the lack of facilities, processing and packaging during storage. This research aims to compare the effectivity and efficiency of two different packaging technique (test tube and straw). Test tube and 0.25 ml mini straw were tested . Semen was obtained from adult PE buck (3 yr) after collection by using artificial vagina. The fresh semen was then evaluated and diluted 5 folds with 2.9 percent Na-citrate. Diluted semen then packed in test tube and mini straw, and stored in refrigerator (100C) for 7 days. Observations were done everyday on sperm motility, abnormality and percentage of live sperm. Observation were made at 370C. Observation on fresh ejaculate showed that semen has 6x 109/ml concentration, 90 percent motility, 8 percent abnormality and 95 percent live sperm. Five folds dilution reduced sperm concentration to 1.2 x 109/ml, but did not change sperm motility, abnormality and percent of live sperm. Sperm was then packed according to the treatments. Storage in both packaging did significantly reduce (P<0.01) sperm motility and percent live sperm, but not for sperm abnormality. All sperm stored in test tube were classified death at day 5 storage. However, sperm in the straw were remain live eventhough the percentages was low. It can be concluded that straw has a better result than test tube. Eventhough sperm motility was extremely low, it remains valuable for cervical insemination. (Animal Production 1(1) : 24-29 (1999).  Key Words : Sperm, PE Buck, Straw, Test Tub
The Effect of Phyto-Lecithin on Preservation and Cryopreservation of Semen: A Review
Artificial insemination represents one of technologies in livestock reproduction that can be applied to cattle, sheep, goats and other livestock. Application of livestock reproduction technology includes artificial insemination to increase reproductive efficiency. Semen processing is one critical phase in an artificial insemination program. The use of animal origin ingredient for semen extenders, such as egg yolk and milk, presents a risk of microbial contamination, which lead to the search for alternatives. To increase standard of quality, researchers exploits phyto-lesitin for semen extender and the results showed no significant differences in motility, viability, and acrosomal status of spermatozoa with phyto-lesitin extender when compared to tris-egg yolk-containing extenders.

Estrous of Goats Undergone Superovulation Induction with Anti-inhibin
Estrous performance of goats underlying superovulation induction with anti-inhibin was done using anti-inhibin induction on rabbit. Twenty four goats used in this research that divided four groups namely P0 (control), P1 (immunization at days of 4 cycle), P2 (immunization at days of 9 cycle) and P3 (immunization at days of 13 cycle). Immunization on groups was done with injection of 500 μg antibody against inhibin after synchronize before that. Estrous synchronization using injection 0.5 ml cloprostenol (EstronTM, Bioveta) two times with interval 10 days. Twenty four hours after immunization, all of goats injection of cloprostenol with same doses. Estrous observation was done after injection of cloprostenol later three times a days. Collection of blood was done at estrous (to analyze of estradiol concentration) and at days of 7 cycle (to analyze of progesterone concentration). All f goats after treatment showed estrous behavior as swelling around the vulva and redness, a thin mucous discharge from vulva, social behaviors, and showed mounted. Awal of estrous on P0, P1, P2, and P3 groups were 35.00+7.01; 28.67+4,50; 27.67+4.76; and 29.67+5.86 hours, respectively and revealed no significant difference between control and treatment groups. Duration of estrous on P0, P1, P2, and P3 were 36.67+3.27; 49.33+3.20; 50.33+10.23; and 53.67+11.96 hours, respectively and revealed significant difference (P<0.05) between P2 and P3 with P0 and P1. Length of cycle on P0, P1, P2, and P3 groups were 20.33+1.75; 19.33+0.82; 19.33+2.50; and 20.83+2.56, respectively and revealed no significant difference between control and treatment groups.

Effects of Feed Restriction and Exercise on Glucose Tolerance in Sheep
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kecepatan penggunaan glukosa dalam darah pada ternak domba yang diberi pakan terbatas dan berjalan diatas treadmill. Delapan belas ekor domba merino kastrasi berumur 8-9 bulan dikelompokkan berdasarkan bobot badan yang selanjutnya secara random dialokasikan ke dalam tiga perlakuan. Selama Periode I (45 hari) domba dalam Perlakuan I mengalami pembatasan pakan dan jalan di atas treadmill selama 2,5 jam sehari. Domba dalam Perlakuan II mengalami pembatasan pakan tetapi tidak berjalan (not-exercise). Domba dalam Perlakuan III diberi pakan ad libitum dan tidak berjalan di atas treadmill. Selama Periode II semua ternak diberi pakan ad libitum dan tidak berjalan di atas treadmill. Analisis ragam menunjukkan bahwa exercise meningkatkan kecepatan penggunaan glukosa darah pada ternak yang mengalami pembatasan pakan. Namun demikian pembatasan pakan baik disertai dengan exercise maupun tidak, menurunkan toleransi terhadap glukosa. Pemberian pakan kembali secara ad libitum menormalkan toleransi terhadap glukosa. Disimpulkan bahwa pembatasan pakan dapat menurunkan kecepatan penggunaan glukosa dalam darah sehingga kadar glukosa darah tidak terus mengalami penurunan dan homeostasis dipertahankan.

Feed Restriction Does Not Impair Insulin Sensitivity, but Exercise and Resumption of Full Feeding Increase Insulin Sensitivity and Blood Flow Across the Hind-Limb Muscles
Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui kepekaan terhadap insulin dan pemanfaatan glukosa oleh kaki belakang domba yang mendapatkan perlakuan pembatasan pakan dan excersise serta pada domba yang diberi pakan penuh dan tidak excesise. Domba sebanyak 18 ekor berumur 8-9 bulan dikelompokan berdasarkan bobot badan dalam rancangan acak kelompok terdiri dari tiga perlakuan dengan enam ulangan. Terdapat dua periode dalam penelitian ini, pada peride I (45 hari) domba dalm perlakuan I dibatasi pemberian pakannya dan excersise selama 2,5 jam perhari, 6 hari seminggu dengan kecepatan 1,1 m per detik. Domba dalam perlakuan II hanya mengalami pembatasan pakan saja, sedangkan domba dalam perlakuan III diberi pakan ad libitum dan tidak excersise. Pada periode II (30 hari), semua domba dalam perlakuan I, II dan III diberi pakan ad libitum dan berhenti excersise. Kepekaan terhadap insulin ditandai oleh ektraksi glukosa selama hiperisulim pada kaki belakang tidak berbeda nyata (P>0.05) antar perlakuan pada akhir periode I. Ekstraksi glukosa (rataan ± salah baku) masing-masing perlakuan adalah 4,71 ± 0,9; 3,70 ± 0,72; 3.49 ± 0.54 %/kg otot. Pada minggu kedua periode II, kepekaan terhadap insulin cenderung lebih tinggi (P=0.064) dengan nilai ektraksi glukosa (rataan ± salah baku) untuk perlakuan I, II dan III masing-masing adalah 3,79 ± 0,26; 3,88 ± 0,39; 2.99 ± 0.41 %/kg otot. Pada akhir periode I, laju aliran darah yang melalui kaki belakang untuk perlakuan I dan II masing-masing lebih rendah 19 dan 24% dibandingkan dengan perlakuan III sehingga berakibat pemanfaatan glukosa lebih rendah (P0,05) antara ketiga perlakuan. Disimpulkan bahwa pembatasan pakan tidak menurunkan kepekaan terhadap insulin. Excersise dan pemberian pakan secara ad libitum setelah sebelumnya mengalami pembatasan pakan akan meningkatkan kepekaan terhadap insulin.
