Efficacy of soursop juice extender on rooster semen quality, oxidative activity and spermatozoa kinematics
TRANSLATIONAL ANIMAL SCIENCE(2022)
摘要
African medicinal plant like soursop (Annona muricate L.) within annonaceae are known for their biological, therapeutic, and pharmacological properties with little or no toxicity. The use of such plant requires good knowledge of the toxicity dosage, purity, suitable extraction solvent and adverse effects. The leaves, seeds, fruits, barks, and roots of African medicinal plants have been used for various nutraceuticals and functional effects according to African folk medicine. The aim of this study is to evaluate the semen quality, oxidative activity and spermatozoa kinematics of rooster semen in soursop juice extender. About 30 roosters were used for the in vitro analysis. Semen was collected twice a week for 2 weeks through dorsal-abdominal massage technique. The evaluation was done hourly until semen quality declined at the 5th-hour. The pooled semen was allotted to seven treatments of semen extenders as undiluted semen, dextrose saline, 10% soursop juice extender, 20% soursop juice extender, 30% soursop juice extender, 40% soursop juice extender, and 50% soursop juice extender for the study. The percentage motility, progressive motility, nonprogressive motility, curvilinear velocity, average path velocity, straight line velocity, linearity, straightness, amplitude of lateral head, beat cross frequency and wobble were analyzed using computer aided sperm analysis. Oxidative status (antioxidant activity and lipid peroxidation) was determined by assay. Result of rooster semen at room temperature and after 1-hour dilution showed that percentage motility, nonprogressive motility, and average path velocity were significantly (P < 0.05) reduced by different soursop juice extenders compared to undiluted semen. After 2-hour dilution of rooster semen, nonprogressive motility, average path velocity, curvilinear velocity, straight line velocity, wobble, liveability and amplitude of lateral head parameters were significantly (P < 0.05) increased by different soursop juice extenders compared to undiluted semen. Antioxidant activity and lipid peroxidation in both room temperature and after 5-hour dilution were affected by different soursop juice extenders in rooster semen. In conclusion, supplementation of soursop juices as an extender to rooster undiluted semen played an improvement role on spermatozoa fertility and oxidative status during processing or preserving ejaculates for insemination.
