The Potensi Penyakit Tular Vektor Di Kabupaten Pangkajene Dan Kepulauan Propinsi Sulawesi Selatan

Abstract

Pangkajene and Kepulauan Islands is one of the potential districts of vector-borne diseases because it is found variation species of mosquito previously known as disease vectors. The purpose of this research is to know the potential of transmission of malaria, dengue fever, chikungunya, filarisis and japanese encephalitis in Pangkajene and Kepulauan. Catching of mosquitoes is done in forest, non forest and coastal ecosystems. Methods colection of mosquito and larva refer to WHO Standart . The methods used were human landing collection, animal baited trap net, livestock feed, morning resting. The larva survey was conducted at the mosquito breeding place. Mosquitoes in pathogen detection in the laboratory using PCR. Based on the results of pathogen species inspection of a positive plasmodium are Anopheles vagus in a residential ecosystem near settlement, Anopheles subpictus in forest ecosystems near settlement and non forest remote settlement, Anopheles barbirostris in near and remote forest ecosystems, Anopheles indifinitus in nearby forest ecosystems and non-forest close settlement. Culex tritaeniorhynchus positive japanese encephalitis virus in non-forested residential ecosystem. No positive samples were found for dengue fever virus, chikungunya and filariasis, but found mosquitoes based on previous studies into dengue fever vector, chikungunya, and filariasis.
