Abstract

Coccidiosis caused by Eimeria sp. is an important disease in poultry industry. In Indonesia, the morbidity due to this disease in poultry reaches up to 90%. The clinical symptoms of coccidiosis vary depending on the age of poultry and the species of Eimeria. If coccidiostat is not properly used in control and eradication program, it will cause resistance and residue in meat and egg. This paper aims to describe the optimal control of coccidiosis without chemical substances by using natural herbs. Resistance cases to Eimeria sp. cause the anti-coccidia ineffective therefore a safe and effective coccidiostat is needed. Currently, coccidiosis control using natural medicines from herbs was reported to be effective, safe, free of side effects and cheaper. An integrated coccidiosis control program can be applied along with biosecurity, vaccination, prebiotics and coccidiostat from herbs. Control of coccidiosis in chickens with herbal medicines can increase immunity, appetite and reduce stress so that it can suppress Eimeria sp. infestation.

Abstract

Zoonotic Arbovirus diseases which are caused by the genus of Flavivirus, Alphavirus, and Bunyavirus, are transmitted through potential vectors. These diseases are commonly occurred, especially in tropical countries, including Indonesia. They can affect the economic development because of the high morbidity and mortality. This paper describes the incidence of zoonotic Arbovirus in Indonesia and the strategy to control its vector. Factors that support the occurrence of zoonotic Arbovirus diseases are environmental, demographic and behavioral changes, as well as advanced technology, transportation and global trade. These diseases would not occur without the role of vectors. Vector control can be carried out effectively through longitudinal surveillance to identify types of potential vectors in the area. Therefore to prevent the increased incidence of the diseases, controlling the vector is necessary.

Abstract

Leishmaniasis is a zoonosis, neglected and poorly reported disease, caused by the protozoan Leishmania spp, genus Leishmania, transmitted through several vector species including the sand fly (gnat) genus Phlebotomus. This disease has complex ecology and epidemiology. This paper presents about Leishmaniasis disease from epidemiological aspects and risk factors; parasites, vectors and reservoirs; diseases transmission and control. Leishmania spp. is an obligate intramacrophage protozoan, characterized by its kinetoplast, a unique form of mitochondrial DNA. Clinical manifestations of Leishmaniasis depend on interactions between the characteristics of Leishmania species and the human host immune response, resulting in a diseases spectrum ranging from local lesions on the skin to diffuse involvement of the reticuloendothelial system. There are four forms of Leishmaniasis in humans with various clinical manifestations, namely visceral Leishmaniasis (VL), also known as kala-azar (KA), Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL), Mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis (MCL) and Diffuse Cutaneous Leshmaniasis (DCL). Leishmaniasis caused by Leismania infantum is the most dangerous disease, but is never found in Indonesia. Leishmaniasis needs to be aware in Indonesia as tropical country that is suitable for the habitat of sand flies (Phlebotomus). The best method for controlling this disease is effective vector control and reduced contact between humans and vectors.

Abstract

Coccidiosis is a parasitic disease caused by the protozoan of the order Coccidia, the family Eimeriidae of the genus Eimeria which breeds rapidly in the digestive tract and is the most difficult disease to be controlled on cattle farms. Eimeria spp. in cattle can cause high economic losses and increase susceptibility against infectious diseases. Therefore, coccidiosis in cattle needs attention from the government. This paper reviews a number of diagnostic methods that can be used in the detection of Eimeria spp. in cattle based on the goals and objectives of the examination. The coccidiosis cases often do not show any clinical symptoms but can cause sudden death in livestock. The diagnostic method that still used at present is based on its morphology that should not be used in identifying Eimeria species because the morphological characteristics Eimeria spp. have similar shape and size structures between species (resembling morphology). An appropriate diagnostic method for Eimeria is needed in the context of controlling coccidiosis strategically.

Abstract

Abattoir (RPH) is very necessary as a place for monitoring and surveillance of animal diseases. RPH routinely monitors and inspects animal health. Diseases in livestock due to endoparasitic infections can be economically detrimental by affecting the health of livestock. This situation resulted in a decrease in production related to the quality of the carcass produced. Parasitic diseases rarely receive attention (neglected diseases) so that it is rarely examined for endoparasitic infections. It is necessary to examine beef cattle at the Tangerang abattoir for the presence of endoparasitic infections, both blood parasites and gastrointestinal parasites. From the results of this study, it is expected to improve the quality of livestock health maintenance and supervision services. Blood and feces samples from 25 Brahman Cross cows from Tangerang City abattoir were identified for endoparasitic infections in the blood and digestive tract. The examination carried out based on the observation of parasite morphology showed 48% blood parasite infection and 72% gastrointestinal parasite including mixed infection. The endemicity of these parasites in Indonesian abattoirs must be considered to carry out early control of pathogenic endoparasitic infections.

Abstract

Nyamuk Aedes aegypti merupakan vektor utama berbagai penyakit arbovirus, termasuk Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD), yang masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat di daerah tropis. Pengendalian vektor secara kimiawi konvensional melawan resistensi resistensi dan dampak lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menuangkan potensi sabun cair yang diformulasikan dengan ekstrak daun kecombrang ( Etlingera elatior ) sebagai pengusir Ae. aegypti . Metode eksperimental menggunakan lima kelompok perlakuan (kontrol negatif, kontrol positif, serta konsentrasi ekstrak 5%, 10%, dan 15%) dengan tiga kali pengulangan dan pengamatan selama 6 jam. Hasil uji fitokimia menunjukkan ekstrak daun kecombrang mengandung steroid, terpenoid, flavonoid, fenolik, dan tanin. Uji efektivitas menunjukkan bahwa sabun cair ekstrak daun kecombrang konsentrasi 15% memberikan daya proteksi terbaik, mencapai 84% pada jam pertama pengamatan. Analisis One-Way ANOVA menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan (P

Abstract

Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas ekstrak daun kecombrang (Etlingera elatior) sebagai insektisida alami terhadap nyamuk Aedes aegypti dengan metode difuser elektrik. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksperimental dengan lima perlakuan dan tiga ulangan, yaitu konsentrasi 1,73%, 1,92%, 2,12%, kontrol negatif (akuades), dan kontrol positif (dimeflutrin). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mortalitas nyamuk meningkat seiring dengan peningkatan konsentrasi ekstrak. Konsentrasi 2,12% menyebabkan kematian nyamuk sebesar 87% dengan rata-rata 8,66 ekor dalam 4 jam paparan, sementara kontrol positif mencapai 100% dan kontrol negatif 0%. Uji Anova menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan antarperlakuan (p < 0,05). Senyawa aktif seperti flavonoid, terpenoid, steroid, tanin, dan fenolik dalam ekstrak daun kecombrang berperan dalam kematian nyamuk melalui mekanisme gangguan pernapasan dan sistem saraf. Hasil ini membuktikan bahwa ekstrak daun kecombrang konsentrasi 2,12% efektif sebagai insektisida alami dengan metode difuser elektrik.
