Abstract

In this study, three sheep aged two years old with a bodyweight of 20-25 kg were used. The treatments consisted of R1 (10% palm kernel cake and ammoniated citronella waste), R2 (20% oil palm kernel cake and ammoniated citronella waste) and R3 (30% oil palm kernel cake and ammoniated citronella waste). Research design used was Latin Square Design with three treatments and three replications. The parameters of semen observed were macroscopic and microscopic quality which included color, odor, volume, consistency, pH, concentration, mass movement and individual motility. The results showed that the administration of palm kernel cake with concentrations of 10%, 20%, and 30% and ammoniated citronella waste had no significant effect (P0.05) on the quality of fresh thin-tailed sheep's semen both macroscopically and microscopically. The semen had an average volume of 0.62 ml, creamy in color, had a characteristic as semen odor, thick in consistency and has a normal pH of 6.89. Microscopically, it had average concentration of 1809x106/ml, average mass movement of ++, and  average individual motility of 57.57%. Based on the results, the administration of palm kernel cake and ammoniated citronella waste does not affect the quality of the fresh semen of thin-tailed sheep, both macroscopically and microscopically.

Abstract

Many people favor quail eggs because they contain good nutrients, and are easy to obtain at an affordable price. This research was conducted to study the effect of temperature and storage time on the quality of quail eggs. The samples in this study were 66 quail eggs which were divided into two groups, the first group (33 eggs) was stored at 27oC, and the second group (33 eggs) was kept at 5oC. This study used a completely randomized design with two factors, temperature and storage time. The observation was carried out on days 1, 7, 13, 19, 25, and 31 with triplicates. The parameters used in this study were air sac height, egg yolk index, white egg index, and Haugh Unit (HU). This study showed that temperature and storage time affected the quality of quail eggs. Eggs stored at 27oC showed a quality decrease indicated by higher air sac position, and lower egg yolk index and egg white index. Eggs kept at 5oC showed no significant degradation. The HU for both groups ranged between 76-81 which implied that the eggs had AA quality even after 31 days of storage.
