Abstract
The present study was conducted to evaluate the supplementation of Moringa leaves extract in CEP-2 Egg Yolk extender on post-thawed semen quality of Senduro goat semen. Ejaculates were collected once a week for ten weeks from one mature buck using an artificial vagina. CEP-2 egg yolk extender containing a various concentration of Moringa leaves extract (1,3,5,7 %) was prepared in mini French straw (0.25 mL). Semen quality was assessed based on post-thawed sperm motility, viability, abnormality and plasma membrane integrity. The result showed that supplementation of different concentration of Moringa leaves extract in CEP-2 Egg Yolk extender have a significant effect (P<0.05) on the percentage of sperm motility, viability, and membrane integrity, but there was no significant effect on the percentage of abnormality (P>0.05). In conclusion, the addition of Moringa oleifera leaves extract 5 % to semen extender could improve post-thawed semen quality.
