Trypanosoma evansi is reportedly divided into two genotypes: types A and B. The type B is uncommon and reportedly limited to Africa: Kenya Sudan, and Ethiopia. In contrast, type A has been widely reported in Africa, South America, and Asia.

Background: One of the constrain in proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) conservation is gastrointestinal helminth (GH) infection. Here, we conducted a study to determine the prevalence of GHs in captive proboscis monkeys in Surabaya Zoo, Indonesia.

Methods: Twenty fecal samples were collected from three groups (i.

Four strains (SB-PR, SB-RS, SB-RD, and SB-RM) of Trypanosoma evansi (T. evansi) were used in this study. SB-PR is known to be trypanocide-sensitive, while the others are trypanocide-resistant to suramin, diminazene diaceturate, and melarsomine hydrochloride, respectively.

Background And Aim: There are numerous reports of subclinical mastitis cases in Blitar, which is consistent with the region's high milk production and dairy cattle population. , which is often the cause of mastitis cases, is widely known because of its multidrug-resistant properties and resistance to β-lactam antibiotic class, especially the methicillin-resistant (MRSA) strains. This study aimed to molecular detection and sequence analysis of the gene in milk and farmer's hand swabs to show that dairy cattle are reservoirs of MRSA strains.

Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) is a strain of pathogenic bacteria that is a major problem in the world's health. Due to their frequent interaction with humans, pets are one of the main risk factors for the spread of MRSA. The possibility for zoonotic transmission exists since frequently kept dogs and cats are prone to contract MRSA and act as reservoirs for spreading MRSA.

Background And Aim: In several countries, two porcine species, and (subtype 1 and 3), have been detected using molecular methods and identified pathogenicity associated with enteritis. However, globally, infection prevalence in pigs is extremely limited. This study aimed to coprologically and genetically examine pig parasites to estimate prevalence of in three pig farms in East Java, Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the identification of protozoan species found in Madura cattle, which are important for enhancing meat self-sufficiency in Indonesia.
  • Researchers collected and analyzed fecal samples from 100 Madura cattle using both morphological techniques and molecular methods, specifically PCR for DNA amplification.
  • The findings revealed the presence of four different protozoan species, indicating a 21% occurrence rate, and suggested the need for further research on the diseases these protozoans may cause in the cattle to improve livestock management practices in the region.

Madura cattle, which are native to Indonesia and mainly kept on Madura Island, East Java, are expected to contribute to improving the regional meat self-sufficiency. Eimeria spp. are the most pathogenic protozoans among gastrointestinal parasites in livestock but no molecular surveys of Eimeria spp.
