“…Observations in dairy cattle and buffaloes have shown an increasing trend in the occurrence of silent heat, corpus luteum dysfunction, repeated insemination, and embryonic loss, leading to reproductive failure after exposure to heat stress ( Sigdel et al, 2020 ). Heat stress also affects the reproductive performance of males because it can decrease libido, semen quality, and testes function ( El-Desoky et al, 2017 , Wafa et al, 2017 ).…”

The reproductive performance of ruminants is economically significant, and its improvement is a primary goal of the livestock industry to ensure its sustainability. Several approaches have been developed to use phytogenics as feed additives for several proposes, such as reducing methane emissions, and as an alternative to antibiotics. Phytogenics have potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and metabolism-regulatory properties, and they are present at high levels in animal feeds. This current review considers the potential use of medicinal herbs on the reproductive performance of animals. The influence of diet on the fertility complications commonly noted in ruminants is of global interest. Although the effects of phytogenics on ruminant digestion and absorption are well-explored, their impact on reproductive performance remains poorly investigated. This review focuses on the influence of phytogenics on semen quality, hormonal profiles, and hematobiochemical indices in male ruminants. Based on available data, phytogenics are perceived to improve oocyte quality, reproductive performance, and pregnancy. However, further more comprehensive research on the benefits and potential hazards of the use of phytogenics is required to improve reproductive performance in ruminants.

“…For instance, the seeds of MO are used by traditional healers in India as an aphrodisiac (Lalas & Tsaknis, 2002). Several studies have confirmed the anti-oxidative activity of MO leaves in improving reproductive, sexual and seminal functions in rat models (Aprioku & Onyenaturuchi, 2018;Awodele et al, 2012;Cajuday & Pocsidio, 2010;Wafa et al, 2017). This study sought to investigate the effects of aqueous leaf extracts of M. oleifera on human sperm functions in vitro.…”

The effects of aqueous leaf extract of Moringa oleifera (MO) on human sperm functions and integrity was studied in vitro. Semen was obtained by masturbation after 3-5 days' abstinence from 34 healthy donors in Western Cape, South Africa. Liquefied semen was washed in human tubular fluid supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin (HTF-BSA;1:5) with 10 min centrifugation at 300 g. Sperm suspensions were subsequently incubated with MO extract (0.625, 6.25, 62.5 and 625 µg/ ml) for 1 hr, where HTF-BSA served as control. Sperm motility, vitality, DNA fragmentation, reactive oxygen species production, mitochondrial membrane potential, capacitation and acrosome reaction were assessed. Sperm motility, vitality, mitochondrial membrane potential and capacitation remained unchanged (p > .05). A dose-dependent decrease in sperm reactive oxygen species production (p < .0001), DNA fragmentation (p < .0001) and acrosome reaction (p < .001) was observed. An increase in the percentage of non-capacitated sperm (p < .01) was noted at 625 µg/ ml. The antioxidant properties of MO actively maintained basic sperm functions, inhibited excess sperm free superoxide production and preserved acrosome reaction and DNA integrity. Further studies are needed to confirm the effect of aqueous MO leaf extract on fertility potential.

“…Suplemen herbal yang bisa digunakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas semen dan libido pada ternak diantaranya campuran temu lawak, temu ireng, lengkuas, sambiloto, cabe jawa dan pasak bumi dalam bentuk segar dan fermentasi (Ratnawati et al, 2012;Affandhy et al, 2017), penambahaan kayu manis (Cinnamomum zeylanicumon) bisa membantu proses spermatogenesis (Khaki, 2015), dan ekstrak daun MO yang mengandung flavonoid dapat berpotensi sebagai antioksidan (I-Kumala et al, 2016), MO juga sebagai alternatif yang baik untuk tanaman pakan ternak karena mengandung protein kasar dan mineral yang lebih tinggi (Nouman et al, 2013); sehingga berpotensi sebagai suplemen penambah libido dan kualitas sperma pada sapi Bali (Toleng et al, 2017) yang diberikan melalui suplemen pakan meningkatkan kadar hormon testosteron, libido, dan motilitas sperma pejantan sapi Bali (Syarifuddin et al, 2017) serta dapat meningkatkan kualitas dan produksi semen tanpa efek buruk pada kesehatan (Wafa et al, 2017); demikian pula pemberian bubuk MO bisa juga berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan konsentrasi dan motiltas spermatozoa serta berat testis pada tikus (Priyadarshani & Varma, 2014), oleh karena itu diperlukan suatu penelitian pemberian suplemen herbal pada sapi pejantan dalam bentuk yang lebih efektif berupa penambahan bubuk daun MO untuk sapi pejantan sebagai acuan dalam pengobatan alternatif untuk meningkatkan fertilitas sapi pejantan. Hasil ini sama yang dilaporkan oleh Zade et al (2013) melaporkan bahwa ekstrak MO dengan dosis 100, 200 dan 500 mg/kg secara signifikan meningkatkan konsentrasi sperma pada testis dan epididimis.…”

ABSTRAK Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian bubuk daun Moringa oleifera (MO) terhadap kuantitas dan kualitas semen sapi peranakan ongole (PO). Metode penelitian menggunakan percobaan lapang dengan rancangan acak lengkap dengan tiga perlakuan pemberian MO sebesar 0 kg/ekor/hari (P1); 0,05 kg/ekor/hari (P2) dan 0,1 kg/ekor/hari (P3). Analsis data menggunakan one way analysis of variance. Masing-masing perlakuan terdiri atas empat ekor dengan tiga periode pengamatan sebagai ulangan, yaitu periode pertama dan ketiga tanpa MO, dan periode kedua diberikan MO pada P2 dan P3. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa volume dan pH semen perlakuan P1, P2 dan P3 tidak berbeda semua periode pengamatan. Motilitas massa spermatozoa P2 dan P3 periode kedua dan ketiga menunjukan nilai +++ berbeda nyata (P<0,05) dibandingkan dengan P1 (++); motilitas individu perlakuan P1 menunjukkan nilai terendah 60,56±2,94 % (P<0,05) dibandingkan P2 dan P3 pada periode kedua dan ketiga (75,50±2,29 dan 72,50±2,34%). Konsentrasi spermatozoa P2 dan P3 periode kedua dan ketiga menunjukkan rata-rata >1.350 juta/ml berbeda nyata (P<0,05) daripada P1 (876±152juta/ml), sedangkan total spermatozoa motil menunjukkan nilai tertinggi 5.647±829 juta/ml pada P3 periode kedua.Viabilitas spermatozoa P2 dan P3 menunjukkan nilai >88-89 % beda nyata (P<0,05) daripada P1 (<84 %) pada periode kedua dan ketiga, sedangkan nilai abnormalitas spermatozoa yang terbaik adalah P2 sebesar 4,30% pada periode kedua dan P3 sebesar 5,33% pada periode ketiga. Disimpulkan pemberian bubuk daun MO dengan dosis 0,1 kg/ekor/hari dapat memperbaiki kuantitas dan kualitas semen (viabilitas dan total spermatozoa motil) sapi pejantan PO.Kata kunci: kuantitas dan kualitas semen, Moringa oleifera, sapi pejantan ABSTRACTThe research aimed to determine the effect of Moringa oleifera (MO) leaf powder on the quantity and quality of semen of ongole crossbreed. The research method used was a field experiment with a completely randomized design with three treatments giving MO of 0 kg/head/day (P1); 0.05 kg/head/day (P2) and 0.1 kg/head/day (P3). Each treatment consisted of four heads with three periods of observation as replications, namely the first and third periods without MO, and the second period was given MO on P2 and P3. Data analysis used a one-way analysis of variance. The results showed that the volume and pH of semen treated P1, P2, and P3 didn’t different in all observation periods. The second and third period spermatozoa mass motility of P2 and P3 showed that the value of +++ was significantly different (P<0.05) compared to P1 (++); Individual motility of P1 treatment showed the lowest value 60,56±2,94 % (P<0.05) compared to P2 and P3 in the second and third periods (75,50±2,29 and 72,50±2,34%). The second and third periods of P2 and P3 spermatozoa concentrations showed an average of >1,350 million/cc significantly different (P<0.05) than P1 (876±152 million/cc), while the total motile spermatozoa showed the highest value of 5,647±829 million/cc in the second period P3. The spermatozoa viability of P2 and P3 showed values >88-89% significantly different (P<0.05) than P1 (<84%) in the second and third periods, while the best spermatozoa abnormalities were P2 at 4.30% in the second period and P3 at 5.33% in the third period. It was concluded that the giving of MO leaf powder at a dose of 0,1 kg/head/day could improve the quantity and quality of semen (viability and total motile spermatozoa) of Ongole Crossbreed bulls.
