Abstract

Background: Parasitic infections in wild animals housed in captivity pose a threat to the success of animal conservation endeavors. Factors such as environmental contamination, abrupt alterations in ecological circumstances, and spatial constraints render captive animals vulnerable to stress, consequently compromising their immune systems. These infections have a notable impact on the host. Furthermore, not only captive animals but also personnel, visitors, and the public at large can be at risk of contracting parasites that have the potential to infect various species. Purpose:  This study seeks to ascertain the occurrence of gastrointestinal endoparasitic infections in lions housed at the Gurun Putih Lestari Safari Park in Jantho, district of Aceh Besar. Method: Samples were collected from five lions housed at Gurun Putih Lestari Safari Park in Jantho, district of Aceh Besar. The sampling procedure involved direct collection of lion feces, which were then placed in containers with 10% formalin and labelled accordingly. Sampling was conducted three times at 15-day intervals. The fecal samples were analyzed using four methods: flotation, sedimentation, formol ether, and modified Ziehl-Neelsen method. Results:  The analysis of fecal samples revealed that three adult lions were found to be infected with Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina, Ancylostoma spp., and Cystoisospora rivolta, while two lion cubs were solely infected with Toxocara cati and Ancylostoma spp. Notably, the modified Ziehl-Neelsen technique did not detect any gastrointestinal endoparasites. Conclusion: The findings suggest that lions housed at Gurun Putih Lestari Safari Park in Jantho, district of Aceh Besar are infected by gastrointestinal parasites. It is recommended to administer deworming treatment to lions as a preventive measure against a surge in parasitic infection among the lion population.

Abstract

Background: Mosquito coil smoke is one of the exogenous free radicals. Exposure to mosquito coil smoke is associated with lung inflammation, oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation. Compounds that can inhibit the oxidation reaction by binding free radicals are known as antioxidants. Purpose:  This study aims to determine the effectiveness of basil leaf extract (Ocimum basilicum L.) as an antioxidant on damage to the histological structure of the lung of white rats (Rattus norvegicus) exposed to mosquito coil smoke. Method: Rats were divided into five groups;  group without treatment as negative control C(-) was given 0.5% CMC Na, group as positive control C(+) was given 0.5% CMC Na before mosquito coil smoke exposure, and three groups that treated with 150 T(1), 300 T(2), and 600mg/kgBW T(3) of basil leaves extract before mosquito coil smoke exposure. Exposure to mosquito coil smoke was given for 8 hours a day for 52 days. All rats were terminated after 52 days of treatment; the histopathology of the lungs was observed under the microscope at 400× magnification within five visual different fields. The analysis was done by observing the severity. Statistical analysis in this study used Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney test.  Results: The result showed that the control group and treatment group had significantly different lung damage (p<0.05). Conclusion:  All doses of basil leaf extract reduce lung damage in infiltration of inflammation of  cells, thickening of alveolar wall, and enlarge alveolar in rats. The effective dose of basil leaf extract is 600 mg/kgBW in reducing the lung damage.

Abstract

Background: Ectoparasites play a significant role in facilitating the transmission of disease pathogens and parasites that affect animals and humans. Purpose:  This study aims to assess the prevalence of ectoparasites and hemoparasites in rodents from the Kilwa district, Tanzania. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted to trap 138 rodents using Sherman and wire cage traps. Ectoparasites were removed from rodents by using fine brushes and identified based on morphological features using a Stereo microscope with the assistance of dichotomous taxonomic keys. Blood samples were collected from supraorbital veins in captured rodents, and thick and thin smears were made, stained and examined using a Compound Microscope for screening hemoparasite. Results: The overall prevalence of ectoparasites in rodents was 57.87 % with a high infestation of rodents by Echinolaelaps (Laelaps) echidninus (44.20%) than Laelaps nuttalli (10.87%), Xenopsylla cheopis (12.32%), and Rhipicephalus appendiculatus (2.90%). Most ectoparasites were found in M. natalensis 76.40% followed by R. rattus 25.81%, and G. leucogaster 36.36%. Adult rodents recorded 63.41% of ectoparasites prevalence higher than juveniles 13.33% (p< 0.05). The overall prevalence of hemoparasites in rodents was 18.12%. The identified hemoparasites were Anaplasma sp. (13.04%), Babesia sp. (3.62%), and Trypanosoma sp. (1.45%) observed only in adult rodents. Conclusion: The study recommends engaging and encouraging the community to use integrated pest management practices for rodents and ectoparasite control and prevention to safeguard both human and animal health.

Abstract

Background: Rodents and shrews serve as a reservoirs and final hosts of various parasitic agents. Different factors are known to affect the diversity and distribution of the parasites harbored by them. Little is known on the factors affecting the diversity and distribution of parasites in rodents and shrews found at different elevations in Iringa District. Understanding these factors is crucial to comprehending how parasitic populations among small mammals spread. Purpose:  This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with the diversity and distribution of ectoparasites and hemoparasites in rodents and shrews in Iringa. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted in selected sites between March and June 2023. Rodents and shrews were captured using Sherman and wire traps, euthanized, and then their sex and species were identified. After that, ectoparasites, blood and tissue sample were collected and processed. The diversity and distribution of parasites at different sites were calculated using the Shannon-Wiener Index formula. Results:  The overall prevalence of hemoparasites infection was 24.2 % (50/207), dominated by Anaplasma centrale (17.4%:36/207) followed by Plasmodium spp. (8.7%:18/207) and Anaplasma marginale (4.4%:9/207).  A total of 713 ectoparasites belonging to five taxa were recovered from small mammals with an overall prevalence of 55.1% (114/207), dominated by mites; Echinolaelaps echidninus 46.4% (96/207), followed by lice; Polyplax spinulosa 16.9% (35/207), tick Hemaphysalis spp. 7.3% (15/207), and two flea taxa; Dinopsylla lypusus 2.9% (6/207) and Xenopsylla cheopis 1% (2/207). Conclusion: The high occurrence of Anaplasma centrale and Echinolaelaps echidninus suggests potential ecological and public health significance.

Abstract

Background: Trypanosomiasis is a disease mainly encountered in tropical regions and is significant to both humans and animals. Rodents and their fleas have been found to play a major role in the transmission of trypanosomiasis to humans. Purpose:  This study aimed to examine the seasonal variation and molecular characterization of Trypanosoma species from rodents in Kilombero. Method: The study employed a cross-sectional design. A total of 387 rodents were captured, and anesthetized with Diethyl Ether to collect blood, spleen, and liver. Rodent tissues were tested with conventional PCR and sequencing to target the 18S rRNA and ITS1 genes. Results:  The most prevalent species was Mastomys natalensis 82.43% (319/387), followed by Rattus rattus 16.79% (65/387), Gramomys spp. 0.52% (2/387), and the least captured species Lemnscomys spp. 0.26% (1/387). Overall microscopic prevalence was 38.76% (n=150/387), and PCR indicated prevalence of Trypanosoma spp. to be 6.28% (n=10/159). Male rodents had a higher molecular prevalence of Trypanosoma spp., and a higher molecular prevalence of Trypanosoma spp. was observed in the dry season. Conclusion: Detection of T. lewisi from the rodents shows the public health significance in the study area. As a result, it is critical to use prevention and control measures in rodents to minimize potential human exposure within the area.

Abstract

Background: Colibacillosis, caused by Escherichia coli infection, is a major health issue in pig farming, leading to high morbidity and mortality rates. This report describes a case that occurred on a conventional pig farm in Puhu Village, Gianyar District, Bali. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the cause of death in a 43 day old Landrace pig exhibiting clinical signs including brown watery diarrhea, dehydration, and weight loss. Case(s): A necropsy was conducted at the Veterinary Pathology Laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Udayana University. Bacteriological examination was performed by culturing organ samples on Nutrient Agar and Eosin Methylene Blue Agar, followed by biochemical testing using Triple Sugar Iron Agar and Sulfide Indole Motility media, among others. Parasitological examination was carried out using the fecal float concentration method. Case Management: Epidemiological assessment revealed morbidity, mortality, and case fatality rates of 1.89%, 0.63%, and 33.33%, respectively. Gross pathological findings included intestinal and gastric dilation and hemorrhage, intestinal edema, and lesions in the brain, trachea, lungs, heart, liver, and kidneys. Histopathological examination revealed localized intestinal congestion, generalized cardiac congestion, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the intestinal mucosa. Bacteriological analysis confirmed Escherichia coli with alpha-hemolytic activity on blood agar. Eimeria spp. oocysts were not detected in the fecal samples. Conclusion:  The pig’s death was attributed to colibacillosis caused by Escherichia coli infection. This case highlights the importance of early detection, strict biosecurity measures, and proper sanitation practices to prevent disease outbreaks in conventional pig farming.

Abstract

Background: Cigarettes are tobacco products processed with or without additives and are known to contain addictive substances that pose serious health risks to individuals and the public. Inhaled cigarette smoke directly stimulates the activation of macrophage cells in the respiratory tract. Among the affected cells, type II alveolar cells which produce pulmonary surfactant to reduce alveolar surface tension are particularly vulnerable to smoke-induced damage. Purpose:  This study aimed to compare the effects of conventional cigarette smoke and e-cigarette vapor exposure on the number of alveolar macrophages and type II alveolar cells in male mice (Mus musculus). Method: A total of 28 male mice were randomly divided into seven groups. The control group (C) was exposed to ambient air only. Groups A1, A2, and A3 were exposed to 1, 2, and 3 conventional cigarettes per day, respectively, while groups B1, B2, and B3 were exposed to 0.7 mL, 1.3 mL, and 2 mL of e-liquid vapor per day, respectively. All exposures were conducted for 36 consecutive days. Results: A significant difference (p<0.05) was observed in the number of alveolar macrophages among groups C, A1, A2 , A3 , B2 , and B3 , whereas no significant difference was found between A1 and B1. The number of type II alveolar cells significantly differed (p < 0.05) across all groups: C, A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, and B3. Conclusion: Both conventional cigarette smoke and e-cigarette vapor increase alveolar macrophage counts and reduce type II alveolar cell numbers compared to controls. Although both exposures pose health risks, e-cigarette vapor appears to cause milder pulmonary effects than conventional cigarette smoke.

Abstract

Background: Infectious coryza, caused by Avibacterium paragallinarum, is an acute and highly contagious respiratory disease in chickens that results in high morbidity, growth retardation, and decreased egg production, leading to economic losses in poultry industries. Vaccination is considered the most effective preventive measure, and inactivated vaccines are widely used due to their safety and ability to stimulate protective immunity. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and potency of a commercially produced inactivated coryza vaccine using Specific Pathogen-Free (SPF) chickens at the National Quality Testing and Certification Center for Veterinary Drugs (BPMSPH), Indonesia. Method: A descriptive observational approach was used to assess safety and potency in vaccinated SPF chickens. A total of 40 SPF chickens four weeks old were used and divided into a vaccinated group and a control group. The vaccinated group received the inactivated coryza vaccine according to standard test procedures, while the control group remained unvaccinated. Clinical observations and local reaction assessments were conducted to evaluate safety, and antibody titers against coryza serotype A were measured to determine potency. Results: Observations showed that 100% of both control and vaccinated chickens exhibited no abnormal clinical signs or coryza reactions. In addition, the vaccine potency test showed that 100% of vaccinated chickens had coryza serotype A antibody titers ≥10. Conclusion: This test confirms that the registered inactivated coryza vaccine formulation meets safety test criteria: 100% of control and vaccinated chickens remained clinically normal, and no abnormal local reactions were observed at the inoculation site. Potency testing demonstrated that all vaccinated chickens developed serotype A antibodies, which are expected to provide protection against coryza infection in the field and improve poultry survival.

Abstract

Background: Veterinary research on abattoirs and animal slaughter published in Indonesian journals requires comprehensive evaluation due to its close relevance to animal-derived food production and public health. Purpose: This systematic review analyzes studies on abattoirs and slaughter practices published from 2014 to 2024 in 20 Indonesian veterinary journals, including 13 SINTA-accredited and 7 non-accredited journals. Review: A total of 37 articles were examined to identify research themes, methodological approaches, study designs, analytical techniques, and disciplinary focuses. Result: Publication trends over the decade fluctuated, with no significant correlation between publication year and article count (r = 0.43; p > 0.05). Cattle were the most frequently examined species (13 studies), showing a significant difference in the distribution of research subjects (χ² = 79.50; p = 6.15 × 10-14). Quantitative and mixed-method approaches were the most commonly used (17 and 19 studies), and their adoption differed significantly (χ² = 11.80; p = 0.0027). The descriptive survey design dominated the literature (32 studies), with a significant difference from other designs (χ² = 21.85; p = 0.000018). Differences in analytical techniques were not significant (χ² = 94.49; p = 1.47 × 10-19), although descriptive analysis was most frequently applied. Veterinary public health was the primary disciplinary focus (15 studies), but the overall disciplinary distribution was not significantly different (χ² = 1.121; p = 0.993). Conclusion:  This review provides a concise overview of research priorities and methodological patterns in Indonesian veterinary literature on abattoirs and animal slaughter. The findings highlight the dominance of descriptive and mixed-method studies, the strong focus on public health, and the need for more diverse methodological and disciplinary approaches in future research.

Abstract

Background: Long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) frequently share their habitat with humans, leading to conflicts, especially when habitat disturbances force them to exploit human food sources. In response, humans sometimes use air rifles to deter these animals. Preventive measures such as sterilization programs, habitat restoration, and public education about responsible interactions with macaques are essential to reduce the occurrence of such incidents and promote coexistence. Purpose: This report describes the anesthesia and surgical management of gunshot wounds in long-tailed macaques. Case(s): Two adult free-ranging male long-tailed macaques in the Ubud Monkey Forest, Bali, Indonesia, were presented with gunshot wounds on the inguinal region and right caudal pelvic area, respectively. These macaques were captured and anesthetized for a scheduled vasectomy. A detailed clinical examination indicated that the projectiles were lodged in the subcutaneous tissue. Based on their shape and size, the projectiles were suspected to be 0.177 caliber (4.5 mm) air rifle pellets. Case Management: Surgical removal was performed to extract the air rifle pellets. Preoperatively, the macaques received amoxicillin (15 mg/kg BW, IM), ketorolac (2.5 mg/kg BW, IM), and Visine® eye lubricant. Propofol was used for anesthetic maintenance (1 mg/kg BW, IV). Following pellet removal, the wound was sutured with monofilament absorbable poliglecaprone 25, and the planned vasectomy was conducted using the bilateral incision method. Postoperatively, the macaques were administered atipamezole (0.02 mg/kg BW, IM) for anesthesia reversal, placed in recovery cages in lateral recumbency, and closely monitored. Conclusion: Once the macaques showed clear signs of recovery from anesthesia, they were transported back to the capture site and released into their original group.
