Abstract

Antibiotic Growth Promoters (AGP) have been used in the broiler industry to improve growth performance. The use of AGPs over a long period of time has led to antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Therefore, the Indonesian government has banned the use of AGPs. This has led to the search for alternative strategies to maintain productivity and the health of broiler chickens. This review aims to examine the productivity and health of broiler chickens following the AGP ban and explore potential alternatives. The ban on AGPs has resulted in decreased productivity and increased mortality in broiler chickens. Several alternatives to AGPs have been proposed, including the use of natural growth promoters and the implementation of strict biosecurity measures. Natural growth promoters, such as plant extracts have shown promising results in improving growth performance and gut health in broiler chickens. The implementation of biosecurity measures can help to prevent and control diseases, thus reducing the need for antibiotics. In conclusion, the ban on AGPs has created challenges for the broiler industry in Indonesia. However, the use of natural growth promoters and the implementation of biosecurity measures offer potential solutions to maintain productivity and the health of broiler chickens.

Abstract

found in both animals and humans. Long-tailed monkeys have the potential to be a reservoir for the spread of zoonotic diseases. This study aims to molecularly identify Blastocystis sp. The 18S SSU rRNA gene can be used to determine the diversity of subtypes, homology, and phylogenetic analysis of Blastocystis sp. 85 fecal samples of long-tailed monkeys from Alas Purwo National Park, East Java were identified and molecularly confirmed using PCR with the primers BhRDr (5'- GAG CTT TTT AAC TCC AAC AAA CG-3') and RD5 (5'-ATC TGG TTG ATC CTG CCA GT-3'). The PCR results showed three positive samples with amplified bands with a length of 600bp, then DNA sequencing was carried out to analyze the phylogenetics of Blastocystis sp. The sequencing results for sample codes MB7, MB22, and MB9 have the closest level of homology to subtype 1 found in human samples and long-tailed monkeys in several countries. The third isolate from this study was still identical, and considered a local strain species because the third sample was grouped in a separate branch from another country.

Abstract

Enucleation is a procedure for removing the eye in cats due to pathological conditions that cannot be treated with medical therapy, such as uncontrolled glaucoma or intraocular tumors. Prolapse of the bulbus oculi in cats is generally caused by glaucoma (increased intraocular pressure), bacterial or viral infections, trauma from being hit by a vehicle, scratches or fights with other animals, and eye tumors. The subject of this case was a male cat named Chiko, approximately 1 year old, weighing 2.5 kg, who was brought to the She Wee Veterinary Clinic in Palembang with the complaint of a protruding eye. Based on the anamnesis, physical examination, and clinical symptoms, Chiko was diagnosed with bulbus oculi prolapse and underwent medical treatment in the form of an enucleation surgery. The treatment administered included antibiotics, vitamins, analgesics, and ointments. The use of an Elizabethan collar was also recommended to prevent the wound from being scratched. Recovery showed good wound healing within approximately 7 days without serious complications. It was concluded that the enucleation procedure performed on Chiko, using the transpalpebral technique, had a fausta prognosis. Keywords: Prolapse, Bulbus Oculi, Enucleation, Eye and Cat.

Abstract

Cutaneous lipoma is a benign tumor of fatty tissue, whose presence is generally not dangerous but can cause discomfort or be aesthetically disturbing. The purpose of this case report is to outline how to diagnose and treat cases of cutaneous lipoma in dogs. The case presented involves an 8-month-old female local dog with predominantly black fur and white markings, which was diagnosed with a cutaneous lipoma. The chosen treatment method was surgery to remove the fatty mass from the cutaneous tissue of the caudal abdominal region. Before surgery, the dog received premedication with atropine sulfate subcutaneously, and anesthesia was administered using xylazine and ketamine intramuscularly, given separately. The operation to remove the tumor involved making incisions through the skin and subcutaneous tissue. The wound was closed using a continuous suture pattern with absorbable PGA 3.0 sutures for both the subcutaneous layer and the skin. Post-operative treatment included regular cleaning of the wound area with 0.9% NaCl, application of antibiotic powder, and oral administration of cefixime trihydrate and meloxicam for five days. A week after surgery, the dog showed signs of recovery based on physical and clinical evaluations.

Abstract

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different intervals of administering a mixture of Lactobacillus plantarum and turmeric in drinking water on carcass weight and abdominal fat of broiler chickens. The research was conducted for 35 days at the Animal Production and Forage Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Science, University of Jambi, using 200 Lohmann Platinum (MB 202) day-old chicks of mixed sex. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was applied, consisting of four treatments and five replications, with 10 birds per replicate. The treatments were: P0 = drinking water without additives; P1 = 2% mixture of L. plantarum and turmeric administered daily; P2 = every two days; P3 = every three days. The mixture ratio of L. plantarum to turmeric was 3:1, given at 2% per liter of water. Observed parameters included feed and water intake, slaughter weight, carcass weight (absolute and relative), and abdominal fat (absolute and relative). Data were analyzed using ANOVA. Results showed no significant differences (P>0.05) among treatments for all parameters. However, the two-day interval treatment (P2) tended to improve slaughter and carcass weights while reducing abdominal fat compared to other treatments.

Abstract

Abstract Tanah Laut Regency in South Kalimantan holds strong potential in the beef cattle sector. However, Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) has negatively impacted livestock productivity and farmers’ incomes in Indonesia. This study aims to assess the impact of FMD on beef cattle farming and identify sustainable development strategies. A descriptive survey approach was used, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Data were collected through field observations, farmer interviews, and secondary sources from the Department of Livestock and Animal Health in Tanah Laut. Analysis showed a high morbidity rate (60–75%) and low mortality (<5%). FMD reduced feed intake, weight gain, and caused marketing disruptions due to movement restrictions. Most farmers use traditional or semi-intensive systems with low biosecurity, increasing disease transmission risk. Control efforts like vaccination, quarantine, and biosecurity campaigns are ongoing but hindered by vaccine distribution and limited awareness. Sustainable strategies are urgently needed, including optimized vaccination, feed diversification, farmer group institutional strengthening, and adoption of modern livestock technologies. In conclusion, FMD presents a major challenge to beef cattle development in Tanah Laut Regency. Strong collaboration among government, academia, and farmers is crucial to build resilience and enhance the sector’s competitiveness amid disease threats.
