Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The objective of this research was to assess the impact of curcuma extract on enhancing the quality of buck sperm. Observations were carried out microscopically, namely by observing membrane and acrosome integrity of spermatozoa in buck fresh semen. The materials that will be used in this research are buck fresh semen and curcuma extract. The research employed a non-factorial experimental design. Completely Randomized Design with five treatments and five replications. The treatment given was the addition of 0ml, 25 ml, 50ml, 75ml and 100ml curcuma extract. The results of the study showed that administration of curcuma extract had a significant effect on membrane and acrosomal integrity in buck spermatozoa. It can be concluded that administration of curcuma extract can increase the percentage of membranes and acrosome integrity of spermatozoa in buck fresh semen.
