背景:长鼻猴(Nasalislarvatus)保守性的限制之一是胃肠蠕虫(GH)感染。这里,我们进行了一项研究,以确定在泗水动物园圈养的长鼻猴中GHs的患病率,印度尼西亚。
方法:从三组中收集20个粪便样本(即育苗笼[NC][n=1],公共表演笼[SC][n=8],和自由放养菌落[FC][n=11])。粪便样品已通过McMaster和糖浮选技术进行了检查。
结果:GH感染率为85.00%(17/20)。我们确认了鞭毛虫的感染。,蛔虫sp.,类圆线虫sp.,以毛虫卵为主。尽管感染率很高,每克的鸡蛋数量(epg)很低。
结论:泗水动物园圈养长鼻猴的GH感染,印度尼西亚,非常普遍。这些结果对未来的研究很有用,control,和预防人畜共患效力的目的。
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.e., nursery cage [NC] [n = 1], communal show cage [SC] [n = 8], and free-ranging colonies [FC] [n = 11]). The fecal samples have been examined through McMaster and sugar floatation techniques.
RESULTS: The total prevalence of GH infection was 85.00% (17/20). We confirmed infection of Trichuris sp., Ascaris sp., Strongyloides sp., and Hymenolepis nana with Trichuris eggs was dominant. Although the prevalence of infection was high, the number of eggs per gram (epg) was low.
CONCLUSIONS: GH infection in captive proboscis monkeys in Surabaya Zoo, Indonesia, is highly prevalent. These results were useful for future research, control, and prevention of zoonotic potency purposes.
