Atotal of 24 ejaculate samples from eight sexually mature garut ram were collected using artificial vagina.After macroscopic evaluation, 10 μL undiluted semen was gently mixed in each of the 2 mL hypoosmoticsolution and incubated at 37oC for 1 hour. Two hundred of coil and non-coiled sperm wereobserved from five different fields every 15 minutes.
