Abstract

Pasak bumi as a rare plant with eroded status is benefit as aphrodisiac for  Borneo men. This study investigate the effect of pasak bumi (Eurycoma longifolia) on spermatozoon cell stages development. The research was conducted by giving pasak bumi steeping doses of 18 mg/200 g (=90 mg/kg) of bodyweight (bw) for three days to 15 white male rats as the experiment group, and 15 white male rats also given with distilled water as the control group. Micromorphological analysis was carried out  using histological staining of  Hematoxylin Eosin (HE)  in the seminiferous tubule tissue. The result showed that pasak bumi  treatment until day-3 is: 1) clearly the amount of mature spermatids was increased, 2) maintaining the amount of spermatogonia, 3) meanwhile the amount of primary spermatocyte was decreased, in term of related to primary spermatocyte formation. It is concluded that pasak bumi increased mature spermatids formation.
