Abstract

Cystoisosporiasis infection is caused by Cystoisospora spp. or Isospora spp. in dogs. Cystoisospora spp. are protozoa ordo Eucoccidiorida. Cystoisosporiasis is considered more risky in puppies. Clinical manifestations of cystoisosporiasis tend to be watery diarrhea to melena in puppies which can also be concurrent with vomiting, and tenesmus, whereas in adult dogs known as symptomatic. A female domestic dog, aged >1 yo was kept indoors and had not been vaccinated or anthelmintic drugs. The dog has changed in the consistency of slightly soft feces with a frequency of defecation 1–2 times a day. Diagnose performed using microscopic fecal examination with the floating method found the presence of Cystoisospora spp. oocysts, followed by the calculation of oocysts per gram (OPG) using a two-chamber McMaster to determine the degree of Cystoisospora spp. infection. Blood examination showed leukocytosis, granulocytosis, and hypochromic anemia. The treatment was administered of 15 mg/kg BW sulfadiazine orally every 12 hours for 7 days, 14 mg/kg BW metronidazole every 12 hours for 7 days, and 300 mg Hemafort® every 24 hours for 7 days. After 7 days of treatment, we reported normal fecal consistency and negative parasitic manifestation. Prevention was done by paying attention to treatment, immediately identifying the presence of oocysts, educating owners to avoid animal distress, and maintaining a good hygiene environment.

Abstract

Murine Trypanosomiasis is a disease caused by the blood protozoan Trypanosoma lewisi in rats, with the transmission process mediated by the flea species Xenopsylla cheopis and Nosopsyllus fasciatus. Cases of trypanosomiasis have been documented due to Trypanosoma lewisi infecting rats and humans in various countries. Diagnosis of T. lewisi is typically conducted using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which amplifies target DNA using specific primers. One such target gene for detection is the Internal Transcribed Spacer-1 (ITS1). Subsequent sequencing of PCR products enables analysis of genetic variation employing parameters such as nucleotide composition, genetic distance, and phylogenetic analysis with MEGA software. Test results based on percent identity values indicated a 98.51% homology of blood samples with the Chinese strain of T. lewisi (FJ011094.1), demonstrating genetic variation. Phylogram reconstruction revealed that samples 18, 19, and 37 of T. lewisi exhibit very close intraspecies relationships with T. lewisi from NCBI genebank with genetic distance ranging from 0.007 to 0.01. While the closest interspecies relationship was found with T. cruzi (KT305857.1) with a genetic distance of (d = 0.61).

Abstract

Program pengabdian masyarakat bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman siswa terkait pentingnya kebersihan tangan dan sistem kekebalan tubuh sebagai langkah pencegahan penyakit. Program ini dilaksanakan melalui metode partisipatif yang melibatkan siswa dan guru dalam setiap tahapannya, termasuk edukasi berbasis ceramah, pemutaran video edukatif, serta demonstrasi langsung mengenaiteknik mencuci tangan yang benar. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan pre-test dan post-test untuk menilai peningkatan pengetahuan siswa. Hasil dari program ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar siswa sudah memiliki pemahaman yang cukup baik mengenai kebersihan tangan dan kesehatan, dengan skor pre-testrata-rata 98%. Meskipun peningkatan pengetahuan pasca intervensi tidak terlalu signifikan (dengan ratarata post-test 99,5%), kesadaran siswa tentang pentingnya kebersihan, terutama dalam mencuci tangan, meningkat secara substansial. Beberapa konsep, seperti peran sistem kekebalan tubuh dan dampak mikroorganisme patogen, memerlukan penguatan lebih lanjut. Selain itu, pemberian hand sanitizer sebagai bentuk penghargaan bagi siswa yang aktif berpartisipasi terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan keterlibatan siswa dalam pembelajaran. Kesimpulannya, program edukasi ini berhasil meningkatkan kesadaran siswa tentang pentingnya kebersihan dan kesehatan, meskipun peningkatan pengetahuan bersifat moderat. Rekomendasi pengembangan program meliputi penekanan lebih besar pada konsepkonsep yang kompleks dan pelibatan orang tua serta guru dalam upaya menjaga keberlanjutan praktik kebersihan di rumah dan sekolah.

Abstract

Nyamuk merupakan vektor utama penyakit seperti DBD, Chikungunya, dan Malaria, terutama mengancam anak-anak di Desa Karang Kembang, Kecamatan Babat, Kabupaten Lamongan, pada musim hujan pasca El Niño. Pengendalian nyamuk masih bergantung pada fogging yang kurang efektif dan merusak lingkungan. Program ini memperkenalkan perangkap nyamuk berbasis sinar UV (qiUT) dan biolarvasida dari limbah gadung (Dioscorea hispida) sebagai solusi praktis dan ramah lingkungan. Kader PKK diberdayakan untuk membuat qiUT dari botol bekas dan memproduksi biolarvasida melalui maserasi. Kegiatan ini meningkatkan kapasitas 35 kader PKK dalam pengendalian nyamuk, dengan monitoring mingguan dan identifikasi jenis nyamuk, seperti Culex sp. dan Aedes sp. Program ini juga meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat dalam kegiatan monitoring jentik. Kombinasi qiUT dan biolarvasida terbukti efektif sebagai metode alternatif yang aplikatif dan ramah lingkungan untuk pengendalian nyamuk di skala rumah tangga.

Abstract

Infeksi Helminthiasis atau cacingan pada kucing sangat umum terjadi. Kelompok nematoda seperti Toxocara cati paling umum ditemukan menginfeksi saluran pencernaan kucing. Disamping itu, potensi zoonosis dari beberapa jenis cacing menjadi alasan utama program deworming penting dilakukan. Tingginya prevalensi infeksi dapat berbahaya sehingga menimbulkan kondisi diare, lethargy, anemia, dan enteritis. Kondisi fatal dapat berakibat kematian pada kucing. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat adalah meningkatkan peran Komunitas Pecinta Kucing dalam menekan kasus cacingan melalui optimalisasi program deworming di Kabupaten Lamongan. Kegiatan dilakukan dengan metode Sosialisasi dan Edukasi pada pemilik kucing terkait bahaya cacingan, gejala klinis, patogenesa, dan management pengobatan yang tepat. Pelayanan kesehatan dan pemberian obat cacing pada kucing dilakukan untuk mengetahui status Kesehatan kucing yang optimalisasi. Sebanyak 100 peserta hadir dan total 150 kucing memperoleh pengobatan gratis. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan peserta sebesar 44.5 % terkait program deworming yang tepat, pemilihan obat cacing spectrum luas dan waktu pemberian obat cacing setelah dilakukan sosialisasi. Peningkatan kesadaran dan pengetahuan masyarakat khususnya pecinta kucing akan pengobatan secara optimal dapat meminimalisir risiko infeksi helminthiasis pada kucing peliharaan.Helminthiasis or worm infections in cats are prevalent. Groups of nematodes, such as Toxocara cati, are most commonly found infecting the digestive tract of cats. Apart from that, the zoonotic potential of several types of worms is the main reason a worm eradication program is essential. The high prevalence of infection can be dangerous, leading to conditions such as diarrhea, lethargy, anemia, and enteritis, which, if fatal, can lead to the death of cats. Community service activities aim to increase the role of the Cat Lovers Community in suppressing cases of worms by optimizing the worm eradication program, specifically in the Lamongan Regency. Activities are carried out using socialization and education methods for cat owners regarding the dangers of worms, clinical symptoms, pathogenesis, and appropriate treatment management. Health services and deworming of cats are conducted to determine the cats' optimal health status. A total of 100 participants attended the event, where 150 cats received free treatment. The activity results showed an increase in participants' knowledge by 44.5% regarding appropriate worm eradication programs, the selection of broad-spectrum worm medicine, and the timing of worming after socialization. Increasing public awareness and knowledge regarding optimal treatment, especially among cat lovers, can minimize the risk of helminthiasis infection in pet cats.

Abstract

The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is among the most commonly kept pet lizards, yet helminth infections remain a frequent health concern in captivity, often exacerbated by stress, inadequate husbandry, and immunosuppression. Untreated infections compromise animal welfare and contribute to physiological stress. Regular anthelmintic treatment is essential for reducing the parasitic burden and improving reptile health. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the anthelmintic therapy, fenbendazole and praziquantel + emodepside combination, on the degree of Oxyurid infection in Iguana iguana. Treatment efficacy was assessed based on the interpretation of FECRT outcomes in both the treated and control groups. The 27 infected Iguana iguana were randomly separated into three equal groups. Nine infected iguanas received one of the following treatments: placebo (P0 Control) and fenbendazole at a dose of 25 mg/kg body weight (BW) orally for three days (P1). Praziquantel + emodepside anthelmintic will be administered topically (spot-on) at a dose of 1.12 ml/kg body weight (BW) (P2). The efficacy of the therapies was evaluated on the 30th day after treatment. A fecal examination was carried out utilizing the flotation and McMaster methods. The average FECRT findings revealed that fenbendazole was 100% effective at 25 mg/kg body weight (BW). Subsequently, praziquantel + emodepside combined at 1.12ml/kg body weight (BW) was 90% effective in Iguana iguana infected with Oxyurid. This study found that fenbendazole was more effective dewormer than praziquantel + emodepside in green iguana against Oxyurid.

Abstract

Toxocara cati is an obligate extracellular parasite within the phylum Nematoda. This species is responsible for toxocariasis, a zoonotic disease. The disease transmission occurs via infective eggs, earthworms, cockroaches, birds, and rodents that contain larvae in their tissues. In cats, infection with this parasite can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, hypoalbuminemia, anorexia, and a distended abdomen. This research aimed to identify an optimal candidate primer design through in silico analysis using BLAST primers from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). This study targeted the mitochondrial genes COX1 and ND5 for the molecular identification of T. cati. Using in silico methods, primer candidates were designed and evaluated based on key parameters, including primer length, melting temperature (Tm), GC content, potential for secondary structure formation, and specificity. Candidate primers were screened using the NCBI primer-BLAST tool and validated through BLAST analysis to ensure sequence specificity. The primer pair that met all the criteria for an optimal candidate primer design comprised the forward primer TCND5F (5′-ACTGCTGGCCTTGTATTGGT-3′) and the reverse primer TCND5R (5′-ACACAGAACGCCTAAACCTCA-3′), both targeting the ND5 gene region.

Abstract

Cats are common companion animals that are susceptible to various parasitic infections, particularly under unsanitary environmental conditions. Apart from transmitting zoonotic infections, infected cats may also suffer from metabolic disorders, malnutrition, anemia, and even death. Fecal, hair, and ectoparasite samples from 170 cats (stray and domestic) were collected from 12 districts in Malang. Statistical tests (Chi-square, OR, and RR) and QGIS-based spatial mapping were employed for data analysis. The findings revealed that 46.4% (79/170) of gastrointestinal endoparasite cases involved Ancylostoma spp. (20.6%), Toxocara cati (19.4%), Toxascaris leonina (7.6%), Strongyloides spp. (2.9%), Dipylidium caninum (4.1%), Cystoisospora felis (5.8%), Cystoisospora rivolta (3.5%), and Toxoplasma gondii-like oocysts (1.1%). Ectoparasite infestations accounted for 52.9% (90/170), with Ctenocephalides felis (50.5%), Sarcoptes scabiei (3.5%), Felicola subrostratus (1.1%), and Rhipicephalus sanguineus (0.5%) being recorded. Risk factor analysis revealed a significant correlation (p < 0.05) between lifestyle and the prevalence rates of cat gastrointestinal endoparasite infections and ectoparasite infestations, while sex and altitude showed no significant correlation (p > 0.05) with either. The findings of the study bear significance for both human and animal health, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration among preventive medicine, veterinary science, and public health, and providing a valuable evidence base to support policy development and targeted intervention programs aimed at controlling zoonotic parasites in companion animals, particularly in urban and peri-urban areas.

Abstract

Cases of intestinal worms or often referred to as neglected tropical diseases are a global problem that occurs in society. Groups of school-age children are more susceptible to being infected by parasitic worms transmitted through the soil (Soil-Transmitted Helminth). The dangers of STH infection in children are impaired nutrient absorption, malnutrition, weight loss, and cognitive decline. The problem at SDN Karangkembang is that student activities are closely related to the risk factors of STH transmission, namely, playing sand without footwear, not washing hands, hawker vendors around the school who are less hygienic. Also, there are no adequate handwashing facilities in schools. Based on these problems, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, UB initiated a community service program namely worm socialization and prevention efforts through the application of personal hygiene. The results obtained during this community service activity are that 83% of students have carried out the practice of cleanliness very well, then 9% of students have carried out well, 4% of students carry out adequately and 4% of students are still lacking. This community service activity can coordinate all students, teachers, and parents to commit to always apply personal hygiene to improve the quality of life both at school and at home.

Abstract

Tikus adalah urban animal sekaligus sumber patogen dan reservoir berbagai penyakit yang berbahaya bagi Kesehatan masyarakat. Bentuk penularan penyakit melalui tikus dapat terjadi secara direct maupun indirect. Masyarakat desa Pucakwangi Kabupaten Lamongan umumnya memiliki mata pencaharian sebagai petani dan peternak. Berdasarkan hasil survei permasalahan yang terjadi di desa tersebut adalah intensitas masyarakat untuk bertemu tikus sangat tinggi yaitu 65% khususnya di sawah dan rumah. Disisi lain, tingkat pengetahuan masyarakat terhadap penyakit zoonosis dan Rodent-borne disease masih rendah. Oleh karena itu, pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat penting untuk dilakukan berfokus terhadap pengetahuan dan sikap masyarakat dalam menghadapi potensi dan resiko bahaya yang ditimbulkan oleh Tikus. Hasil dari kegiatan ini antara lain mampu meningkatkan pemahaman masyarakat sebesar 100%. Kegiatan ini juga dapat mengetahui upaya yang dilakukan masyarakat selama ini dalam menghadapi tikus diantaranya dengan penggunaan racun tikus, lem tikus, jebakan tikus, dipukul dan ditembak. Kegiatan ini merupakan bagian dari pendekatan sistem One health demi terwujudnya Kesehatan masyarakat yang lebih baik. Lebih lanjut, perlu peningkatan partisipasi aktif masyarakat dengan kegiatan pendampingan agar terbentuk sikap kepedulian terhadap penyakit zoonosis.
