Abstrak

Moringa oleifera is a clump plant that many of them could be found in Indonesia as a plant that used for fence and has many benefit like vegetables and substance of traditional medicine. This research was intended to know commercial feed substituted with Moringa oleifera leaf meal effect towards sperm membrane integrity and Malondialdehide (MDA) level of male rabbit blood. There were used 24 male rabbit on four months years in weight average of 1200 gram. There were four treatments on this study i.e. 05 (KO), 15% (K1), 30% (K2), and 45% (K3) Moringa oleifera leaf meal in commercial feed, the each treatment included of 6 repetition. The treatment was conducted for 2 months. The blood that was used for measuring MDA level was taken from vena which found in ears. Referring to membrane integrity, it was used caudal epididymal sperm. The result saw that there was significantly (P<0,05) between controlling within way of treating toward sperm membrane integrity and MDA level of rabbit blood. Commercial feed substituted by Moringa oleifera leaf meal up to 45% was able to increase sperm membrane integrity and decrease rabbit MDA level in real. It was concluded that Moringa oleifera leaf meal up to 45% was able to be used as commercial feed substituted to the rabbit.x
