Abstract
Infertility is an important health and social problem. There are 15% of couples are infertile and 40% are infertile due to male infertility in the world. Temperature ex-posure is one of the determine factor in the normal percentage of spermatozoa morphology. This study generally aims to determine the effect of temperature ex-posure on spermatozoa morphology. Laboratory experimental research method was conducted by a post-test only control group design, carried out on 12 mice (Mus musculus). Mice were divided into 2 groups randomly, the control and treatment group with less and more than 35 0C (KK) temperature exposure con-secutively in the UD Grinding Mill Berkah Tani (KP) rice mill for 35 days. The samples were terminated, spermatozoa were taken and preparations were made using gymsa painting on the 36th day. The results showed there was a significant difference of spermatozoa morphology between control and treatment group (p <0.05).
