Resumoy of different extenders on the semen from common marmoset to improve the quality of physical and morphological characteristics. Three adult specimens were used and nine ejaculates were collected from each one, using electroejaculation. To break up the seminal clot, nine variations of three different extenders were tested. TALP, Ca+2 free, with 0.5% tripsin, during 45 minutes at 37oC, was the best extender, dissolving partially the semen clot. The electroejaculation is a viable semen collection method for common marmoset, obtaining success in all animals, but the semen quality was relatively poor. KEY WORDS: Callithrix jacchus, electroejaculation, primates, semen.
