Abstract

Background. Identifying bat species based on morphological characteristics often faces challenges due to character overlap among species, especially within cryptic species groups. Cynopterus brachyotis is one of the fruit bats with high genetic diversity but relatively uniform morphology. Aims. Therefore, a molecular approach is needed to support accurate species confirmation. Under the HETI Research Grant of Innovation and Collaboration Batch 3- II Year 2025, this study aims to obtain genomic DNA from C. brachyotis bats caught at the Lampung Disease Investigation Center as the initial step of molecular species confirmation. Methods. Samples were obtained by taking oral swabs on bat individuals caught using mist nets. DNA extraction is performed using silica membrane-based methods with commercial kits. Quantitative evaluation of DNA was performed using a Qubit Fluorometer, while qualitative evaluation was performed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Conclusion. The results showed that the DNA concentration was in the low range (0.1–0.7 ng/μL), with a DNA band appearing very thin on electrophoresis. Implementation. Nevertheless, the quantification results confirm that DNA was successfully extracted and remains suitable for advanced molecular analysis, with optimization at the DNA amplification stage.

Abstract

Background. Bats (Chiroptera) are true flying mammals and nocturnal. Ecologically, bats play important roles as pollinators, seed dispersers, guano producers, biocontrol, and hosts a range of viruses. Cynopterus brachyotis belongs to fruit-eating bats and is considered morphologically cryptic with C. sphinx. Aims. To support morphological identification, molecular species confirmation needed to be conducted. DNA extraction, as an initial step, plays a crucial role in molecular analysis. Methods. The quality and quantity of extracted DNA determine the success rate of sequencing for species confirmation in bats. In this study, oropharyngeal samples were used. Result. The research procedures included bat capture and DNA oropharyngeal swab sample collection, sample preparation, DNA extraction using a silica column-based commercial kit, DNA concentration measurement using a Qubit assay, and electrophoresis. Conclusion. The Qubit assay showed DNA concentrations of >1 ng/µL, while electrophoresis did not reveal bright DNA bands.
