Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the effect of folic acid as supportive therapy of spiramycine on weight of foetus to Toxoplasma gondii-infected pregnant mice (Mus musculus). Twenty pregnant female mice were divided into four groups as C -, C +, T1 and T2. C +, T1 and T2 were infected by Toxoplasma gondii. C – and C + administered orally 0.5 ml aquadest, T1 administered orally 130 mg/kg BW spiramycine and 0.052 µg/g BW folic acid and T2 administered orally 0.052 µg/g BW folic acid. Experimental groups received the treatments for 5 days, then animals of each groups were sacrified. Foetuses were dissected out for observation. The weight of fetuses were measured using an analytical balance. The data weight of foetuses was presented descriptively and analyzed by ANOVA test and continued by Tukey HSD. From this study, the weight of foetuses from the pregnant mice of T1 and T2 have difference compared with the controls. The result of this research is folic acid affects the weight of foetuses to Toxoplasma gondii-infected pregnant mice.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the endoparasites of Spotted Bawean Deer (Axis kuhlii) and Deer (Axis axis ) at Surabaya Flora Park. The research was conducted in December 2018 - January 2019 used total 60 specimen of sample faeces, consist of 30 sample of bawean deers faeces and 30 sample of spoted deers faeces, the samples analyzed at the Department of Parasitology Veterinary, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Universitas Airlangga. The results of the study found positive endoparasites on examination, samples of Bawean deer faeces (Axis kuhlii) and Spotted deer faeces(Axis axis) in Baratang Flora Park Surabaya found that 26 positive samples from 60 samples were obtained. Positive endoparasitic samples are protozoa at the stage of oocyst, namely Eimeria sp. 6 (10%) samples, worm eggs from the Nematoda class, Haemonchus sp. 20 (33.33%) and whereas endoparasites from other stages and classes were not found. The results of the analysis used Chi-Square test and showed no significantly differences degree of gastrointestinal endoparasite infection of Bawean deer (Axis kuhlii) and Spotted deer (Axis axis) (p>0.05).
