Abstract

Samples feces were collected from three heads of agile gibbon and three heads of siamang using direct smear, flotation, sedimentation, and McMaster methods. Identification is achieved by using faecal cultures to obtain larvae of parasitic worm. Identification result indicated that male agile gibbon (W/I) infected by two types of parasitic worms (Trichostrongylus and Strongyloides). In contrast, female agile gibbon (W/IIa and W/IIb), placed in the same cage as a male agile gibbon are uninfected by a parasitic worm. Male siamang (S/IA) put in a different cage with others is uninfected. Male siamang (S/IB) ia infected by three types of parasitic worms (Trichostrongylus, Strongyloides, and Cooperia) while the female siamang (S/IIB) that placed in the same cage with S/IB infected with one type of parasitic worm (Trichuris). Each egg account results showed no amount exceeding 300 eggs per gram of feces. This led to the degree of infection in agile gibbon and siamang at Serulingmas Zoological Garden, belonging to a common disease. It can be concluded that the type of parasitic worms found in the agile gibbon at Serulingmas Zoological Garden namely Trichostrongylus and Strongyloides while the variety of parasitic worms found in the siamang namely Trichuris, Trichostrongylus, Strongyloides, and Cooperia.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to ascertain how the concentration of the ethyl acetate component of calabash fruit (Crescentia cujete L.) affected the in vitro mortality of the Haemonchus contortus worm. This study employed a post-test only control group design as its methodology. There were five treatments, with a total of four repetitions. Twenty H. contortus worms were utilized as samples in each treatment throughout all replications. Observation and recording of H. contortus mortality was carried out at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60 minutes, and when all worms in the petri dish died. Worm mortality was observed by examining whether there was a movement reaction from the worms when given a touch or water droplets at 50°C. Linear regression test was used to assess the data. The resulting linear equation, y = 2.417 + 5.875x, demonstrated that the ethyl acetate component of calabash fruit had an impact on worm mortality. The conclusion of this study is that the increase in the concentration of the ethyl acetate fraction is directly proportional to the mortality of the worm Haemonchus contortus in vitro with an effect value of 93.4%.

Abstract

A total of 100 fresh vegetable samples consisting of yardlong bean, cabbage, lettuce, and lemon basil were purchased from five traditional markets in Surabaya. Each sample was washed with tap water, water washing examined using flotation method to find soil-transmitted helminths. The overall prevalence of soil-transmitted helminths contamination was 41% (41/100). The most predominant parasite was hookworms (20%), followed by Strongyloides stercoralis larvae (14%) and Ascaris lumbricoides eggs (7%). The highest prevalence of contamination was found in lettuce, with a prevalence rate of 56% (14/25), while the lowest prevalence of contamination was found in yardlong bean, with a prevalence rate of 24% (6/25). Sequentially, the prevalence of soil-transmitted helminths contamination of fresh vegetable samples from Pabean traditional market (55%), Keputran traditional market (50%), Wonokromo traditional market (50%), Lakarsantri traditional market (35%) and Mulyosari traditional market (15%), respectively. The present study demonstrated that consumption of vegetables with parasite contamination in this area represents a potential route for the transmission of soil-transmitted helminths infection.

Abstract

Intestinal helminthiasis is a public health issue in developing nations particularly those which have insufficient access to clean water, sanitary infrastructures, and lacks public health education. Due to the zoonotic potential of some intestinal helminths, cats, and other mammalian species with direct contact to humans may act as reservoir hosts and provide a medium for the transmission of zoonotic infections. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of intestinal helminths among domesticated cats in Malate, Manila, Philippines. A total of 25 cat stools were collected, processed using Formol-Ether Concentration Technique (FECT) and were microscopically examined. The overall prevalence of intestinal helminths was 76% (19/25). The intestinal helminths identified include roundworms of phylum Nematoda: Toxocara cati (44%) and Ascaris spp. (20%), whipworm: Trichuris spp. (24%), and hookworm (12%). All of the identified intestinal parasites have zoonotic potential and domestic cats are significant reservoirs of zoonotic intestinal parasites that can facilitate the transmission of infection to humans. Therefore, an innovative one-health approach strategy which includes constant monitoring and control of stray and feral cats, access to potable water, public health education, and more sanitary infrastructures, can help resolve intestinal helminthiasis crisis in the Philippines.
