Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the value of endogenous purine derivatives (PD) excreted in the urine Garut sheep. The endogenous PD excretion of male and female Garut sheep was compared using an independent student t-test. In this experiment, six males and six females Garut sheep of similar age and body weight (10 months and 25 kg, respectively) were used. The sheep are fed ad libitum with elephant grass and bran pollard in a 60:40 ratio during the adaptation period. The feed then was gradually reduced, starting at 90%, 60%, and 30% from initial amount, and then the sheep were fasted. The sheep were fasted for five days before the urine collection period began. Urine samples will be measured for endogenous PD excretion. The results showed that the excretion of allantoin, xanthine-hypoxanthine, and uric acid in fasted male Garut sheep were 0.040±0.005, 0.004±0.001, 0.014±0.001 mmol/W^0.75/day, respectively, while in fasted female Garut sheep were 0.035±0.005, 0.004±0.001, 0.013±0.001mmol/W^0.75/day, respectively. Endogenous PD excretion in male Garut sheep was 0.057±0.006 mmol/W^0.75/day, while it was 0.052±0.006 mmol/W^0.75/day in female Garut sheep. Based on the endogenous PD data, we obtained modified equations, which were Y = 0.84X + (0.057W^0.75e-^0.25x) for male Garut sheep and Y = 0.84X + (0.052W^0.75e^-0.25x) for female Garut sheep. In conclusion, sex differences in Garut sheep had no effect on the excretion of endogenous PD, but endogenous PD in male Garut sheep tended to be higher than in females.
