Description Not Available
Genital organs of 10 healthy, adult Mithun bulls (6-8 years old) that were slaughtered at the dwellings of tribal
people for meat were collected. Immediately after collection, spermatozoa from 3 different regions of the
epididymis, i.e. the head, body and tail, were obtained to study morphological changes of the spermatozoa during
passage through these regions. The prevalence of proximal cytoplasmic droplets significantly decreased from the
head to the tail of the epididymis. Conversely, the percentage of distal cytoplasmic droplets increased significantly
from the head to the tail region. The incidence of tailless heads rose significantly from head to body and then
reduced significantly in the tail region. The percentage of total head abnormalities did, however, not change
markedly, but total mid-piece and tail abnormalities differed significantly between the three epididymal regions.
