Infeksi Cacing Nematoda Usus Pada Anak Kelas 1 dan 2 Sekolah Dasar

Worm disease is still one of the health problems in Indonesia. Personal hygiene such as playing in the school ditch, on the ground, playing dirty and some children do not use footwear, long nails and the habit of not washing their hands with soap before and after playing, thereby increasing the risk of intestinal worms in children. This study aims to determine the percentage and types of intestinal nematode worm eggs that infect elementary school children grades 1 and 2 Raudathul Jannah Foundation, Penraujan Private Elementary School, Sunggal District, Deli Serdang Regency. The method used in this study was direct stool examination. Based on the results of the examination of 48 samples of elementary school students in grades 1 and 2, it was found that 3 samples were positively infected with intestinal nematode worm eggs with a percentage of 6.25% and there were 2 types of worm eggs that infect, namely Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura. Where sample (S 12) was infected with Trichuris trichiura worm eggs, sample (S 37) was infected with Ascaris lumbricoides worm eggs and sample (S 46) was infected with both types of worm eggs, namely Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura.

The Prevalence and Identification of Gastrointestinal Helminthiasis in Beef Cattle in Lamongan District

This study aimed to determine the prevalence and identification of gastrointestinal helminthiasis in beef cattle in Lamongan Regency. The subjects in this study were 100 cow feces divided per district as many as 20 cow feces, saturated sugar solution, PAM water, Aquadest, and 10% formalin. The stool examination was carried out using three methods as native, sedimentation, and floatation techniques. The result was positive if the analysis on the microscope shows worm eggs in beef cattle feces. The data in this study was presented in quantitative descriptive by calculating the numbers of prevalence. The results showed that the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthiasis in beef cattle in Lamongan Regency was 24%. In Kedungpring District, it was 25%, and Paciran District was 15%, Sukodadi District was 20%, Mantup District by 20%, and Tikung District by 40%. This study concluded that the prevalence rate in Lamongan Regency was 24%. This figure tended to be high because taking the feces was done in the rainy season with high humidity, which was a factor in the high incidence of helminthiasis. Treatment of worms has not been carried out routinely by breeders, and the drums' hygiene was still not right; it was still traditional.Â

A desired gains approach for the prediction of genetic gain in resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes in a multi-trait breeding objective in Uruguayan Merino sheep.

Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) constitute a problem in many sheep production systems, including those in Uruguay, causing reduced productivity and increased expenses. The main strategy to control GIN has consisted of the use of anthelmintics. However, GINs have developed resistance to anthelmintics, reducing their effectiveness. Genetic resistance to GINs has been found in flocks of different breeds. To date, there have been no reports about GINs breaking down genetic resistance in sheep. Heritability estimates of resistance to GIN within breeds are generally moderate, so that achieving genetic gain within a flock is possible. In this study, we predicted genetic gain in worm egg count (WEC), an indirect (and generally preferred) criterion of resistance to GIN, following different strategies. A multi-trait breeding objective including wool and meat traits was assumed and genetic gain over 10years of selection in a Merino flock was estimated. We used a desired gains approach, examining situations in which the economic contribution of genetic gain in resistance to GIN in percentage terms was 0, 25, 50, 75 or 100. Except when the level of infestation with GIN was low, a considerable amount of emphasis had to be placed on selection for low WEC in order to reach the threshold below which the administration of anthelmintics is not required. High emphasis on reducing WEC lead to a reduction in genetic gain in wool and meat traits, or to their deterioration in the extreme case of 100 per cent emphasis on WEC. Given this finding, coupled with the difficulties encountered in accurately recording and selecting for WEC, we concluded that in addition to embarking upon a programme of within flock selection, sheep breeders interested in improving genetic resistance to GIN should also consider using breeding stock identified as superior for both resistance and production traits in across flock genetic evaluations.

TINGKAT KEJADIAN TREMATODIASIS PADA TERNAK KAMBING

This study aims to determine the prevalence of trematodiasis in goats in Paguat and Randangan sub-districts, Pohuwato district in October-November 2019. Sampling was carried out proportionally randomly with a 90% confidence level of a population of 2966 tails at the village level. Faecal samples are collected through the rectum by rectal palpation and some are taken shortly after the defecation goat. Inspection of samples using native, depositional and floating methods. The results of the study were obtained from 93 goat faecal samples taken in Paguat District, 17 samples were found Trematoda worm eggs, while in Randangan District from 94 goat faecal samples were taken, as many as 14 samples were found Trematoda worm eggs. Thus the prevalence of trematodiasis in goats in Paguat District was 18% and Randangan District was 15%. The prevalence of Trematodiasis in Paguat District was obtained through negative examination of 4%, deposition of 9%, and floatation of 5%, while the prevalence of Trematodiasis in Randangan District was obtained through native examination of 5%, deposition of 7%, and floatation of 3%.

Ginger (Zingiber Officinale)-derived nanoparticles in Schistosoma mansoni infected mice: Hepatoprotective and enhancer of etiological treatment.

BackgroundNanotechnology has been manufactured from medicinal plants to develop safe, and effective antischistosmal alternatives to replace today’s therapies. The aim of the study is to evaluate the prophylactic effect of ginger-derived nanoparticles (GNPs), and the therapeutic effect of ginger aqueous extract, and GNPs on Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni) infected mice compared to praziquantel (PZQ), and mefloquine (MFQ).Methodology/principal findingsEighty four mice, divided into nine different groups, were sacrificed at 6th, 8th, and 10th week post-infection (PI), with assessment of parasitological, histopathological, and oxidative stress parameters, and scanning the worms by electron microscope. As a prophylactic drug, GNPs showed slight reduction in worm burden, egg density, and granuloma size and number. As a therapeutic drug, GNPs significantly reduced worm burden (59.9%), tissue egg load (64.9%), granuloma size, and number at 10th week PI, and altered adult worm tegumental architecture, added to antioxidant effect. Interestingly, combination of GNPs with PZQ or MFQ gave almost similar or sometimes better curative effects as obtained with each drug separately. The highest therapeutic effect was obtained when ½ dose GNPs combined with ½ dose MFQ which achieved 100% reduction in both the total worm burden, and ova tissue density as early as the 6th week PI, with absence of detected eggs or tissue granuloma, and preservation of liver architecture.Conclusions/significanceGNPs have a schistosomicidal, antioxidant, and hepatoprotective role. GNPs have a strong synergistic effect when combined with etiological treatments (PZQ or MFQ), and significantly reduced therapeutic doses by 50%, which may mitigate side effects and resistance to etiological drugs, a hypothesis requiring further research. We recommend extending this study to humans.

Modifikasi Larutan Buah Bit (Beta vulgaris l.) sebagai Alternatif Pengganti Zat Warna Eosin 2% pada Pemeriksaan Telur Cacing STH (Soil Transmitted Helminths)

Helminthiasis is one of the infections caused by parasites. World Health Organization (WHO) data in 2018 reported 24% of the world's population was infected by Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH). Worms of this group need soil to be in their infective stage. Eosin 2% is a stain used in the examination of worm eggs. Beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) is one of the plants widely used as a natural dye. Beetroot contains betacyanin which produces red pigment. This study aimed to identify the feasibility of beetroot as a substitute for eosin to stain worm eggs. This research was true experimental with a static group comparison design. The results showed that the concentration of beetroot solution proportional to the quality of 2% eosin is with a concentration of 95%. Beetroot solution produces color quality with a contrasting background so that the morphology of eggs can be clearly observed. Beetroot extract lasts for 7-day storage at cold temperature.

Identification of "Soil Transmitted Helminth" Contamination on The Raw Vegetables in Warung Pecel Lele in Kebon Jeruk District, Jakarta

The prevalence of intestinal helminth infections in several provinces in Indonesia including Jakarta reaches 80% (or is still high). Helminth transmission may occur via food/drinks or through the skin. In particular, consumption of raw vegetables allows for the transmission of helminth eggs to happen. The purpose of this study was to identify intestinal worm eggs in raw vegetables sold in warung pecel lele. Raw vegetables were usually served together with the pecel lele menu which is a very popular dish among the Jakartans. The present study is a descriptive study with a cross sectional approach. Seventy-five samples of raw vegetables were included in this study, which were obtained from 25 warung pecel lele in Kebon Jeruk District, Jakarta. Samples were examined for helminth egg contamination based on a sedimentation method by lugol staining. Of all the raw vegetables samples, 20 samples (26.7%) was contaminated by soil transmitted helminths eggs. Ascaris lumbricoides worm eggs were identified in 17 samples (22.7%), whereas hookworm eggs were found in 3 samples (4%). The study suggests that the number of helminth egg contamination identified in raw vegetables are still high among warung pecel lele in West Jakarta.

New evidence fortamoxifen as an antischistosomal agent: in vitro, in vivo and target fishing studies.

Background: Praziquantel is the only drug available to treat schistosomiasis, and there is an urgent demand for new anthelmintic agents. Methodology & results: We conducted in-depth in vitro and in vivostudies and report a target fishing investigation. In vitro, tamoxifen was active against adult and immature worms at low concentrations (<5μM). Tamoxifen at a single dose (400mg/kg) or once daily for five consecutive days (100mg/kg/day) in mice harboring either adult (patent infection) or juvenile (prepatent infection) significantly reduced worm burden (30-70%) and egg production (70-90%). Target fishing studies revealed propionyl-CoA carboxylase as a potential target for tamoxifen in Schistosomamansoni and glucose uptake by S. mansoni was also significantly reduced. Conclusion: Our results provide news evidence of antiparasitic effect of tamoxifen and reveal propionyl-CoA carboxylase as a potential target.

Kangaroos at maximum capacity: health assessment of free-ranging eastern grey kangaroos on a coastal headland

Sprawling urban development is fragmenting the landscape and native wildlife habitats on the Australian east coast. The impact of this rapid urbanization on wildlife health is largely unknown. This study surveyed the health of a high-density (5.4 individuals per ha) population of eastern grey kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) affected by urban encroachment and prolonged drought. Blood parameters (hematological and serum protein), trace element and heavy metal concentrations, and parasite counts (fecal worm egg counts, ticks, and mites) are reported for a sample of ≤ 54 kangaroos at Look at Me Now Headland, New South Wales, Australia. These parameters were compared to lower density kangaroo populations from other sites in New South Wales. We found the health and welfare of this population to be severely compromised, with nonregenerative anemia and nutritional deficiencies evident. Our results indicate that high-density kangaroo populations isolated by urban encroachment are at significant health risk. To prevent further decline in this population’s health, we discuss management strategies that could be employed, concurrent with ongoing health and disease monitoring, to mitigate the poor health outcomes in this population. We conclude that it is essential to retain habitat connectivity when altering land use in areas with resident kangaroo populations if managers are to maintain healthy populations.

Incidence Model of Intestinal Helminthiasis Infections in Toddler with Nutritional Problems in Central Kupang District, Kupang Regency

The prevalence of nutritional problems for infants under 5 years of age (toddlers) in East Nusa Tenggara reaches 40.3%, the highest compared to other provinces in Indonesia. This figure is above the national nutritional problem prevalence of 29.6%. One of the factors that causes the nutritional status of children under five is an intestinal worm infection. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence model of intestinal worm infection in children under five with nutritional problems in Central Kupang District, Kupang Regency. Quantitative research method with cross sectional study design. The sample size of this study is a total population of 80 children under five and the independent variables are environmental sanitation and personal hygiene and the dependent variable is malnutrition and low nutrition status. The data collection technique was carried out by weighing to determine the nutritional status and followed by fecal examination to identify worm eggs and analyzed by multiple logistic regression. The results showed that the incidence of intestinal worm infections was 42% of children under five with nutritional problems. The results of statistical tests showed that there was an effect of snacking habits p value = 0.024 and food storage p value = 0.033. The conclusion is that the incidence of intestinal worm infections in children under five with nutritional problems is influenced by eating habits and opened food storage.

Veterinary and Sanitary Assessment and Commodity Characteristics of Hare Meat (Lepus Timidus) in the Central Zone of Yakutia

In the modern world, providing the population with high-quality food is a step of paramount importance which aims to protect the interests of consumers at the current stage of development of society. One of the main provisions of the concept of state policy in the field of healthy nutrition of Russia is providing the population with high-quality nutritient products. One of the promising sectors of the livestock section is wild animal business. Hare meat is a product with good gastronomic qualities, which, in addition, has medical property. It has great biological value, high absorption, energy-restricted and hypoallergenic this is ground for recommending hare meat to elderly people, children, pregnant and lactating mothers. To determine the organoleptic, physico-chemical, microbiological, chemical-toxicological parameters, microscopy of smear-fingerprints, determine the parasitic purity, we conducted laboratory studies of hare meat samples obtained in the Central zone of Yakutia for compliance with regulatory requirements.The objective of the study is to give the veterinary and sanitary assessment and commodity characteristics of hare meat in the conditions of the Central zone of Yakutia. To achieve the goal were established the following tasks: to study the organoleptic and physico-chemical parameters of hare meat (Lepus timidus) of the Central zone of Yakutia on conformity with the requirements; to conduct a microbiological study in accordance with safety requirements: determining the number of KMAFAnM, the presence of BGKP, the detection of pathogenic microorganisms including salmonella; to conduct a parasitological study of hare carcasses for the presence of maggots and worm eggs; to determine the content of toxic elements in hare meat. The study has established organoleptic, physico-chemical, microbiological, bacterioscopic, chemical-toxicological and parasitological indicators of the quality of hare meat and determined its safety.

A Survey of Coccidia and Nematodes in Pastured Poultry in the State of Georgia.

The aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify the parasitological challenge in pastured poultry production in the state of Georgia. Over the course of 1 yr, fecal samples from six turkey flocks, 10 broiler flocks, and 13 layer flocks were collected on a pastured farm in 2-wk intervals to determine counts of Eimeria oocysts and nematode eggs. Average coccidia counts were 10,198 oocysts per gram of feces (OPG) in broiler flocks, 1470 OPG in layer flocks, and 695 OPG in turkey flocks. The means in broiler and turkey flocks were higher at their first week on pasture. Counts in broilers and layers were significantly higher in spring than in winter and summer. Coccidia counts in broilers were lower than published numbers in conventionally reared poultry, indicating the rotation system of the pastures might effectively reduce the infection pressure. Next-generation sequencing of PCR products showed the presence of most described Eimeria spp. in broilers, layers, and turkeys. In addition, operational taxonomic units (OTUs) x, y, and z were found. The frequency of species was similar for broilers and layers, with the exception that Eimeria praecox and OTU z were more common in layers. In layer flocks, the average count of roundworm eggs per gram of feces (EPG) was 509 EPG with 80% of the samples being positive. The mean counts had no clear pattern related to age. There was an increase of EPG with the increase of temperatures during spring and summer with the peak at midfall. Worm eggs from laying hens were identified as Ascaridia galli. The seasonal differences suggest that higher temperatures might result in an increase of egg survival and sporulation in the environment.

Herbal anthelmintic: the effectiveness of worm infections control in sheep using urea molasses block containing tobacco (nicotiana tabacum) waste

The purpose of this study was to determine the ideal composition of tobacco waste (Nicotiana tabacum) as a herbal anthelmintic element from local ingredients added to UMB (Urea Molasses Block) and to determine effectiveness for controlling worm infection in sheep. The method used is to make UMB with the addition of tobacco waste. The calculation of EPG (eggs per gram) of worm eggs was used as an evaluation for the degree of infection using Whitlock chamber tools. The degree of infection will be evaluated as the basis for assessing the effectiveness of UMB from tobacco waste in experimental animals. The experimental animals were 10 sheep aged 1 - 2 years (ethical clearance number: 0019/EC-FKH/Eks./2020) infected with worms naturally divided into 4 groups, each group was given UMB containing tobacco waste 0%, 1%, 3%, and 5%. The results of the study concluded that UMB with the addition of 5% of tobacco waste had the potential to control helminthiasis in sheep. Other results of this study also presented a prototype of UMB products containing herbal anthelmintics (tobacco waste) which could be further developed as an alternative solution before being produced as one of the livestock products that have added value.

Identification of helminth parasites diversity on laying chicken in jember district (East Java – Indonesia)

One of several factors that can decrease productivity of laying chicken is health problems caused by worm parasite (helminthiasis). The aim of this research is to identify the diversity of worm parasites in laying chicken in Jember District. Obtained information on worm parasite species can be used as a database for prevention and treatment strategies of helminthiasis in laying chicken in Jember District. One-hundred-and fifty laying chicken excreta samples were randomly collected in the Jember area which was started from July to August 2020. Identification of worm species diversity was carried out by examining worm eggs found in excreta samples using the sedimentation method and the Whitlock method performed at Balai Besar Veteriner (BBVet) Wates. Based on the results of chicken excreta examination in Jember, worm parasite eggs were found from the nematode class consisting of Strongyloides sp.; Heterakis sp., and Ascaridia sp.

Protective efficacy of Barbervax® in Merino weaner sheep trickle infected with five doses of Haemonchus contortus infective larvae

Barbervax® protects sheep against H. contortus infection; however, the level of protection afforded by the vaccine at different levels of larval challenge under field conditions has not been reported. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate the protective efficacy of Barbervax® at increasing doses of trickle infection with H. contortus third stage larvae (L3). Merino lambs (220) were randomly allocated to challenge treatment groups and received Barbervax® vaccinations at approximately 8, 11, 15 and 22 weeks of age or not vaccinated (control group). Animals within each treatment group were subjected to one of five levels of H. contortus L3 trickle infection (0, 300, 600, 1200 and 2400 L3/week in two split doses). Trickle infections started two weeks after the third vaccination (week 0). Worm egg count (WEC), packed cell volume (PCV), antibody titre and bodyweight were measured at week 2 (start of trickle infection), week 5 and then every two weeks for 11 weeks. Vaccinated weaners had a significantly (P < 0.0001) lower faecal WEC than unvaccinated control animals. Vaccination induced significant specific antibody responses that were not influenced by level of trickle infection. Vaccination significantly reduced the number of weaners requiring salvage anthelmintic treatment (9.4% vaccinated weaners versus 33.6% unvaccinated). Vaccine protective index based on WEC was similar at all challenge levels (overall mean> 60%) and at the higher challenge levels did not reduce H. contortus infection to levels that would not require anthelmintic treatment. Therefore, it is suggested that under conditions of high larval challenge the use of Barbervax® should be integrated with other control methods.

Sheep’s gastrointestinal helminth infection at several districts in North Sumatra

High adaptability to the environment is an important reason for the farmer to raise sheep, one of which is the adaptation of sheep to parasite attack infections. Infection of nematode parasite is commonly found in the digestive tracts of sheep. The purpose of this activity is to investigate the gastrointestinal helminth infection in sheep in five districts in North Sumatra. This research was conducted in December 2019 to February 2020 by collecting sheep feces in the districts of Batu Bara, Labuhan Batu Utara, Asahan, Serdang Bedagai and Deli Serdang, North Sumatra. The number of eggs in stool were examined (eggs g−1) as a method of Fecal Egg Count Reduction Test (FECRT). The results showed that there was no difference in number eggs g−1 of stool in sheep that were kept with intensive and semi-intensive systems. The effect of sex, body weight and age of the sheep also showed no difference in the number of eggs g−1 of their faeces. However, the results showed that the number of sheep’s worm eggs g−1 of stool from Labuhan Batu Utara district was higher (P <0.05) when compared to other areas, which was 73.33 eggs g−1 of feces. Whereas the sheep in Deli Serdang showed the lowest number of worm eggs (P <0.05) which was 23.33 eggs g−1 of feces. In all study locations, Haemonchus contortus eggs were found in sheep feces indicates gastrointestinal heminth parasite infected sheep in those areas.

Stability Test of Colouring Agent from Pericarpium of Red Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus Polyrhizus) Extract in Laboratory Diagnostic of Intestinal Nematode Eggs Preparation

The red dragon fruit pericarpium contais anthocyanin as a natural red dye agent that can be extracted from plant cells. Anthocianin can be used as a colouring agent in intestinal nematode worm eggs. The aim of reseach is to determinate a stability test of natural red dye produced from 3% red dragon fruit pericarpium extract after storing for 27, 28, 29 weeks using a spectrophotometer at 504 nm wavelength and also to determine a stability test in diagnostic application in colouring of intestinal nematode worm eggs preparation. The result of the reseach indicated the longer the storage time, the lower the absorbance value obtained. Likewise with preparations, the longer the storage of these dyes the less the quality of the dye. The processing data used Anova test. From the result of the statistical test can be concluded that stability of the dye agent will be decrease according to lengh of time required. The suggestion for next result is to do resistance test for a long time accurately.

Prevalence and Intensity of Parasitic Worms on Free-Range Chickens and Egg-Laying Chickens in Muara Badak sub-District, Kutai Kartanegara

One of the diseases often threatens the health of free-range chickens and egg-laying chickens are worm parasites (endoparasites). Parasites can be transmitted through food, drinks and the cage environment. Sanitation is one of the preventive steps carry out by farmers to protect livestock against infection from the environment. The objective of study was to determine the prevalence and intensity of parasitic worm eggs that infect the digestive tracts of free-range chickens and egg- laying hens in Muara Badak District. Research was done by observing worm eggs in fecal samples. A total of 60 samples consisting of 30 samples of egg-laying hens in Tanjung Village and 30 samples of free-range chickens in Badak Baru Village, Muara Badak. For the sample analysis technique used 2 methods are namely the floating method and the sedimentation method. The results has showed the type of worm eggs are infected the digestive tract found in free-range chickens and egg-laying chickens had consisted of Echinostoma revolutum, Raillietina echinobothrida, Raillietina tetragona, Davainea proglotina, Amoebotaenia sphenoides, Ascaridia galli, Capillaria annulata and Trichostrongylus tenuis. The highest prevalence in free- range chickens and egg-laying chickens were found in Ascaridia galli was 53.33% and 40%. While the lowest prevalence in free-range chickens against Raillietina echinobothrida and Amoebotaenia sphenoides 3.33%. egg-laying chickens are against Echinostoma revolutum, Raillietina tetragona and Trichostrongylus tenuis 6.67%. The highest intensity in free-range chickens and against Ascaridia galli was 141 eggs/individual and in egg-laying chickens was 139 eggs/individuals. The lowest intensity in this research was found in free-range chickens against Amoebotaenia sphenoides and Raillietina echinobothrida 3 eggs/individuals and egg-laying chickens against Echinostoma revolutum 5 eggs/individuals.
