Abstract An investigation on the infestation by endoparasites in the fecal samples of Indian Muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak) captived at Citra Pesona Ladangku Animal Park, North Sumatera, Indonesia had been conducted from October to November 2020. The study aimed to determine the endoparasite species, prevalence, and intensity of the infestation. Fecal samples were prepared for microscopical examination using glass bead sedimentation method. Based the observation on 9 deers, three species of endoparasites were found namely Ascaris sp, Haemonchus sp and Paramphistomum sp. Observations in the first week revealed the prevalence of each species from often (Ascaris sp, Haemonchus sp) to common (Paramphistomum sp) with light (Haemonchus sp, Paramphistomum sp) to moderate (Ascaris sp). Observations in the second week only revealed the presence of Paramphistomum with often prevalency and light intensity of infection.

INTRODUCTION: Spontaneous sedimentation is an important procedure for stool examination. A modification of this technique using conical tubes was performed and evaluated. METHODS: Fifty fecal samples were processed in sedimentation glass and in polypropylene conical tubes. Another 50 samples were used for quantitative evaluation of protozoan cysts. RESULTS: Although no significant differences occurred in the frequency of protozoa and helminths detected, significant differences in protozoan cyst counts did occur. CONCLUSIONS: The use of tube predicts a shorter path in the sedimentation of the sample, increases concentration of parasites for microscopy analysis, minimizes the risks of contamination, reduces the odor, and optimizes the workspace.

Abstract Feed composition has a substantial impact on the persistence of gastrointestinal endoparasite infection in sheep. This study aimed to compare the prevalence of gastrointestinal endoparasites in Waringin sheep (Ovis aries) fed with complete forage and feed concentrate in Sidomulyo Village, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. The study has been conducted from June to August 2020 with a total of 20 sheep for each type of feed. Fecal samples from each sheep were prepared for microscopical examination using sedimentation technique (glass beads). Gastrointestinal endoparasites was identifiedmorphologically. The results documented 3 genera of endoparasites namely Haemonchus (Nematoda), Fasciola (Trematoda) and Paramphistomum (Trematoda). Based on the type of forages, sheep fed with forage-concentrate showed a lower number of helminth eggs than the complete forage group. Haemonchus sp was identified as the most frequent parasite in both type of feeds. The intensity was categorized from mild-to-moderate level of infection. Provision of forage-concentrate was then proven to prevent a high rate of infection in Waringin sheep.

Constriction Region

A karyotype of a female Indian muntjac, Muntiacus muntjak vaginalis, was described. The karyotype was unique in that No. 1 and No. 3 homologous pairs were heteromorphic with respect to the size of their secondary constrictions. In these pairs, one of the homologs always had a longer secondary constriction than that on the corresponding homolog. Heterochromatin in the secondary constriction region was visualized with difficulty by a C-banding technique, but was demonstrated clearly by a DNase treatment followed by Giemsa staining, which also revealed the size difference of the secondary constriction. Centromeric constitutive heterochromatin of No. 1 chromosome was also found to differ in size between the homologs. On the basis of the heteromorphic character of No. 3 chromosome, or an X-autosome complex, it was possible to confirm autoradiographically that X-inactivation had occurred at random.
