The widespread occurrence of coccidiostat resistance in chicken farms has prompted the search for alternatives to treat coccidiosis caused by Eimeria tenella. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of standard artemisinin and Artemisia annua (A. annua) leaf ether extract when administered at 3–2–3...

Several studies have demonstrated that ruminant-fed forages containing bioactive anthelmintics (tannins, alkaloids, and flavonoids) can be used to suppress nematode worms. The objective of this study was to examine any potential direct anthelmintic effects of G.sepium leaves containing Plant Secondary...

Mastitis is a disease in dairy cattle that causes economic losses to farmers around the world. Mastitis is caused by microbes with Streptococcus agalactiae being the main cause of subclinical mastitis. The prevention and control of mastitis is through sanitation management, drug administration and vaccination...

Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) is a common global helminth infection. Children have a high risk of infection with STH. Indonesia is particularly vulnerable to STH infections due to ideal environmental and socioeconomic conditions in many areas. Nearly, 200 million people across 31 provinces are estimated...

Japanese encephalitis (JE) is a zoonotic vector-borne disease in humans and animals in the Asia Pacific. This RNA virus is transmitted to humans through mosquito bites from viral amplifiers, such as pigs, poultry, bats, and other vertebrates. In the spread of JEV, herons are considered the reservoir,...

Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) is a chronic infectious disease caused by worms from the nematode group. Mass drug administration (MDA) for LF is carried out in endemic communities to eliminate lymphatic filariasis. Previous analysis shows that one of the factors associated with community compliance with taking...

Schistosomiasis in Indonesia is caused by the trematode worm, Schistosoma japonicum, with the snail Oncomelania hupensis lindoensis as its intermediate host. In Indonesia, it spreads in three endemic areas only: Napu and Bada Highlands of Poso Regency and Lindu Highland of Sigi Regency, Sulawesi Tengah...

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by bacteria from the genus Leptospira. Leptospira bacteria can infect rats, dogs, cats, raccoons, cattle, horses, and other mammals. The main reservoir of leptospirosis in Indonesia is rats. Indonesia is a country with a high risk of developing leptospirosis,...

Leptospirosis is a neglected zoonotic disease with global health implications. A significant impact of Leptospirosis happens in tropical regions, including Indonesia. Rodents play an essential role in the spread of Leptospirosis due to their rapid population growth and proximity to humans. This study...

The covid-19 pandemic that occurred in the beginning of 2020 has affected all sectors, particularly in health and economic sectors. The Avian Influenza Virus (AIV), a zoonotic virus that have been reported endemic in Indonesia since 2003, might be affected by this condition. There is very limited information...
