Abstract

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact of MELATONIN on SCROTAL CIRCUMFERENCE and semen parameters using 8 SHALL RAMs in April until June 2004 (out of season). In the April, the rams were randomly allocated in two groups. Four animal received 3 implants of MELATONIN tablets (totally 54 mg/ram) at the base of ear and the other 4 rams were considered as control group and kept at the identical circumstances. The SCROTAL CIRCUMFERENCE and semen parameters were weekly recorded over of a period of 14 weeks and the data on each variable were compared base on t-test. There was no significant differences between treatment and control group for SCROTAL CIRCUMFERENCE (32.8±.83 vs 32.89±0.21 cm), semen volume (0.98±0.31 vs 0.9±.12 ml/ejaculation), mass motility (3.64±0.46 vs 3.1±0.31), individual motility (70 vs 71percent), sperm concentration (2.23±0.39 vs 1.72±0.31 bilion/ml) and live sperm per cent (79 vs 82 percent) (p>0.05). It was concluded that to use of MELATONIN would not improve the semen parameters in OUT OF SEASON reproduction assessment of SHALL RAMs. Key words: SHALL RAM, MELATONIN, OUT OF SEASON, SEMEN EVALUATION, SCROTAL CIRCUMFERENCE.
