ABSTRACT
The present study was conducted to measure various biometric parameters of intact/normal acrosomes (AC) collected respectively from caput, corpus and cauda epididymis and vas deferens of Black Bengal buck. Giemsa stained acrosomes were measured after camera lucida drawings. Observations revealed dimensional characters of the acrosomal cap diminished gradually and significantly (p<0.01, p<0.05) during spermatozoa maturation phases in the different regions of the excurrent duct. Shape and size of the AC were also found to be influenced significantly (p<0.01, p<0.05) by the age and body weight of the animals. The structural modification along with decrease in the morphology of the AC reflected one of the maturational indexes of the male gametes in Black Bengal buck.
RESUMEN
El presente estudio se realizó para medir diversos parámetros biométricos del acrosoma (AC) intacto/normal recogido desde la cabeza, cuerpo y cola del epidídimo y vas deferens de la Cabra Black Bengal. Los AC teñidos con Giemsa fueron medidos después de la captura con cámara lúcida. Las observaciones revelaron caracteres dimensionales del capuchón acrosomal que disminuyeron gradualmente y de manera significativa (p <0,01, p <0,05) durante fases de maduración espermatática en las diferentes regiones del conducto. La forma y tamaño del AC también fueron influenciados de manera significativa (p <0,01, p <0,05) por la edad y el peso corporal de los animales. La modificación estructural junto con los cambios morfológicos del AC refleja uno de los índices de maduración de los gametos masculinos de la Cabra Black Bengal.
