Abstract

Salmonellosis is a significant global public health concern caused by the bacterium Salmonella spp. As a zoonotic disease, it can be transmitted between animals and humans, leading to various clinical symptoms in humans, including gastroenteritis, diarrhea, vomiting, enteric fever, and septicemia. This study examines the presence of Salmonella spp. in house geckos (Hemidactylus frenatus and Cosymbotus platyurus), which may act as zoonotic reservoirs. A total of 50 house geckos were collected from residential areas across five districts in Makassar City—Biringkanaya, Tamalanrea, Tallo, Manggala, and Rappocini—from March to September 2024. Skin, oral, and fecal samples from the geckos were cultured on nutrient agar, brain heart infusion broth, and selective Salmonella-Shigella agar, with bacterial identification confirmed using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Findings revealed the presence of Salmonella enterica ssp. enterica in geckos from the Manggala district, highlighting a potential pathway for environmental contamination and zoonotic disease transmission. This study underscores the need for public awareness regarding the health risks associated with household reptiles and emphasizes preventive sanitation measures to reduce potential pathogen exposure. These findings serve as a foundation for future research on zoonotic reservoirs in urban environments.

Abstract

Leptospirosis is a disease caused by Leptospira spp., zoonotic Gram-negative bacteria. This study aimed to determine the handling of a leptospirosis case in a dog at the Pet Vet Clinic, Jakarta. Handling began with anamnesis and continued by examining the patient's physical condition, followed by serological, microscopic, and polymerase chain reaction examinations. An examination revealed that the dog had Leptospirosis. The therapy given was the administration of crystalline procaine and penicillin-G antibiotics. Supportive treatment was given with hepatoprotective, lipotropic, and diuretic supplements. Ringer's lactate was used as fluid therapy. The treatment administered showed positive, progressive results in the patient.

Abstract

The practice of wild animal captivity serves to augment their populations and preserve their genetic integrity. The spotted deer (Axis axis) captive area at Hasanuddin University’s Faculty of Animal Science not only serves these conservation objectives but also provides an interactive experience for visitors. The welfare of these captive deer is influenced by feed management strategies, the adequacy of facilities, and the impact of visitor interactions. This study employs a semi-quantitative approach to assess the welfare practices for spotted deer at the university’s breeding center. The assessment is structured around the questionnaire provided in the Regulation of the Director General of Forest Protection and Nature Conservation No. P.6/IV-SET/2011 concerning Guidelines for Assessment of Conservation Institutions, which utilizes the five freedoms of animal welfare as its assessment framework. Observations and interviews reveal that the welfare provision for the spotted deer is rated at 66.8%, qualifying it as adequate. The assessment highlights areas where improvements can be made to enhance the overall well-being of the deer, such as customized feeding and handling of pregnant and lactating deer as well as visitor interaction management.

Abstract

Myasis is a disease that commonly occurs in ruminants with the incidence of myasis increasing from year to year in Indonesia, especially in rural areas, with an incidence rate of 70% and a recurrence rate of up to 40% in cattle, buffalo, horses and goats. This disease is characterized by the presence of wounds and maggots. The presence of secondary infections will make the disease worse. Therefore, it is necessary to handle miasis cases so that they do not cause losses to farmers. A 7 year old of bali cattle in the North Sinjai district experienced miasis on the head. Treatment for myasis includes washing the wound, removing maggots and administering medication. Treatment uses the antibiotic oxytetracycline, anti-inflammatories, and vitamins as well as turmeric powder as a topical treatment. With the handling and treatment given, the cow showed recovery within 2 weeks. There is a need to improve election management so that this miasis incident does not happen again. As well as the need for socialization from related departments regarding livestock diseases and livestock rearing management.

Abstract

Cryptocaryon irritans, known as cryptocaryonosis disease infection in fish, is a significant problem for aquarists because they not only cause the disease but also lead to high mortality in the aquarium population. This case report aims to identify  Cryptocaryon irritans infection in four Indian Ocean oriental sweetlips at the Jakarta Aquarium and Safari. Before they died, a total of four fish showed signs of weakness, scratching, excessive mucus, and pale gills. The diagnosis was confirmed through clinical assessment, physical examination, and microscopic analysis of skin scrape and gill clip samples, which revealed the presence of numerous trophonts (the young immature stages) of C. irritans. These findings underscore the importance of vigilant monitoring and prompt intervention to mitigate the impact of C. irritans, especially on marine aquarium fish populations.
