Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of palmyra fruit water–egg yolk diluents supplemented with moringa (Moringa oleifera L.) leaf extract on the intact plasma membrane, intact acrosomal membrane, and motility of boar spermatozoa during liquid storage. A completely randomized design was used, with seven diluent formulations varying in concentrations of egg yolk and moringa leaf extract. Each treatment was replicated four times and stored at 15-18°C for up to 72 hours. Semen quality was evaluated at 0, 24, 48, and 72 hours of storage. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. Both diluent formulation and storage duration significantly influenced all semen quality parameters (p < 0.05). The diluent containing palmyra fruit water supplemented with 20% egg yolk and 15% moringa leaf extract produced the highest membrane integrity, motility, and viability with the lowest abnormality rate. The semen maintained acceptable quality for artificial insemination for up to 48 hours of storage. The superior performance of this formulation is biologically associated with the synergistic interaction between carbohydrate-derived energy from palmyra fruit water, phospholipid-mediated membrane stabilization from egg yolk, and antioxidant protection from moringa leaf extract against oxidative stress.

Abstract

Berkshire pigs are a popular choice for small and large scale pig farming enterprises worldwide, including in Bali. Berkshire pigs are well known for their superior meat quality and relatively fast growth rate. This study aimed to determine the effect of storage duration on the quality of Berkshire boar spermatozoa diluted with Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS®) supplemented with melatonin. Semen from Berkshire boars was diluted using BTS® supplemented with melatonin at a concentration of 1.0 mM and stored at a temperature of 15 –20°C. Semen quality was evaluated at different storage intervals: (P1) 48 hours, (P2) 60 hours, and (P3) 72 hours. The observed semen quality parameters included sperm motility, sperm abnormalities, sperm viability, and plasma membrane integrity of spermatozoa, which were examined using smear preparations observed under a microscope. In addition, sperm malondialdehyde (MDA) levels as an indicator of oxidative stress were measured using the Porcine MDA ELISA Kit. Duncan’s multiple range test analysis showed that the storage duration of Berkshire boar semen diluted with BTS® supplemented with melatonin was able to maintain sperm motility, abnormality, viability, plasma membrane integrity, and malondialdehyde levels up to 72 hours of storage, with sperm motility of 40.66%, sperm viability of 53.00%, and sperm abnormalities of 6.33%. These values met the minimum standards set by the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 8034:2023) for liquid boar semen. These results indicate that melatonin acts as an antioxidant capable of neutralizing free radicals, thereby inhibiting the occurrence of oxidative stress in spermatozoa cells.
