Demodex Sp

Demodekosis adalah penyakit kulit yang disebabkan oleh perkembangbiakan tungau Demodex sp. secara berlebihan. Demodekosis diklasifikasikan berdasarkan distribusi lesi yaitu demodekosis lokal dan demodekosis general/umum. Demodekosis terjadi pada hewan yang mengalami penurunan sistem imun, hewan tua, dan anak anjing yang berumur kurang dari satu tahun. Seekor anjing lokal berumur satu tahun dengan bobot badan 5,6 kg datang ke Rumah Sakit Hewan Pendidikan, Fakultas Kedokteran Hewan, Universitas Udayana dengan keadaan anjing tidak mau makan, lemas, dan kerontokan rambut pada wajah, sekitar mata, telinga, bagian punggung, serta pada bagian ekstremitas. Pada pemeriksaan fisik ditemukan eritema dan pustula pada bagian kaki belakang dan perut. Anjing menunjukkan rasa gatal. Pemeriksaan hematologi rutin menunjukkan hewan kasus mengalami anemia dan peningkatan limfosit. Diagnosis demodekosis diteguhkan berdasarkan pemeriksaan kerokan yang dalam pada kulit ataudeep skin scraping ditemukan tungau Demodex sp. Prognosis anjing kasus adalah fausta. Anjing kasus diterapi dengan ivermectin (0,4 mg/kg BB) dan amitraz. Anjing kasus juga diobati dengan cefalexin (22 mg/kg BB, q12h) dan cyproheptadine HCl (1.5 mg/kg BB, dua kali seminggu) selama seminggu.

Demodicosis is a parasitic disease caused by the imbalance in the number of mites of the genus Demodex sp. The skin scraping is the gold standard method for diagnosis, but other methods can be used. Based on this, the aim of this work is to report cases in which cytology served as an auxiliary diagnosis for demodectic mange. Two dogs went to a private clinic with skin lesion of different aspects and in which both dogs the cytology was performed by skin imprint, being possible to observe the presence of Demodex canis. Thus, cytology could be used as an auxiliary diagnostic method this disease.

Abstract Cryptocaryon irritans is an obligate parasitic ciliate protozoan of wild and cultured marine fish. It causes white spot disease, and infections with this pathogen can cause significant losses for aquarists and commercial marine cultures worldwide. This study reports the occurrence of C. irritans parasitizing the ornamental reef fish, yellowtail tang, Zebrasoma xanthurum. Six days after being introduced to a new environment, 11 yellowtail tangs had white spots scattered across their bodies and fins. Suspicion of infection with C. irritans was evaluated by scraping the skin to confirm clinical diagnosis. After confirmation, the yellowtail tangs were transferred to a hospital aquarium and treated with the therapeutic agent Seachem Cupramine® for 15 days. During the treatment period, the copper concentration was monitored daily. At the end of the treatment, none of the yellowtail tangs showed clinical signs of white spots on their bodies, and skin scraping confirmed the yellowtail tangs were no longer infected. Subsequently, the yellowtail tangs were released for sale.

Background. The aim of this study was to assess the antibiotic resistance of S. aureus isolated from the skin of atopic dermatitis (AD) children. Materials and methods. 256 AD children were included in the study in 2014-2016. Microbiological examination of skin scraping and determination of antibiotics sensitivity were performed. Results. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated in 173 (67,6%) of 256 patients. Resistance to erythromycin was established in 64,6 and 74,6%, respectively. Retrospective analyses showed that S. aureus became more sensitive to ampicillin, ceftriaxone, ciprofloxacin but more resistant to erythromycin. Conclusion. Ceftriaxone and cefoxitin but not erythromycin and ampicillin are the drugs of choice for the treatment of atopic dermatitis complicated by secondary infection in children.

To study the parasitism in goats in relation to different feeding systems, 1110 goats from different areas of Jaypurhat, Tangail, Netrakona and Mymensingh districts were examined. By fecal sample examination, 76.5% goats were found to be infected with one or more species of endoparasites. In this study, 9 types of helminths’ ova were identified such as Fasciola gigantica (14.8%), Paramphistomum sp. (28.5%), Schistosoma indicum (3.2%), strongyles (35%), Strongyloides sp. (17.4%), Toxocara spp. (1.5%), Trichuris sp. (4.6%), Capillaria sp. (1.2%) and Moniezia sp. (3.7%). Two types of protozoa were also detected, namely, Eimeria sp. (7.1%) and Balantidium coli (5.5%). Along with these, five species of ectoparasites were found: two species were lice such as Damilinia caprae (13.9 %) and Linognathus vitulli (4.2%), and two species were ticks namely, Haemophysalis bispinosa (21.2%), Rhipicaphalus (Boophilus) microplus (3.6%) and one species was mite, namely, Demodex sp. (2.9%). Mean parasitic burden of Paramphistomum sp. (259.81 ± 3.35) was the highest followed by Eimeria sp. (224.1 ± 16.9) and Moniezia sp. (204.9 ± 19.7). Prevalence of helminths and protozoa was significantly (P<0.01) highest in extensive system (86.1%) followed by semi-intensive (76.3%) and intensive system (57.5%). Ova of Schistosoma indicum was absent in the fecal sample of goats of intensive system. Goats of extensive and semi-intensive systems were 4.6 and 2.4 times more susceptible to helminth infection than those of intensive system. Ectoparasitic infestation was the highest in semi-intensive system (59.7%) followed by extensive system (33.5%) and intensive system (8.2%). In conclusion, the present study suggests that feeding system has a great impact on the prevalence of parasites in Black Bengal goats. Further study can be carried out to determine the effect of parasitism in the production performance of Black Bengal goats.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v22i1-2.16470 Progress.

Pathological manifestations occasioned by mites of the genus Demodex are reported from Antechinus stuartii, a marsupial mouse. Derangements from single mite invasion of a hair follicle to massive nodule formation are detailed. In heavy infestations mites are found well distributed in the skin of the body with nodules limited, however, to the head, hind legs, around the base of the tail, the cloacal regions and, in females, just anterior to the pouch area.Mites invade the hair follicle, where increase in their numbers leads to hypertrophy of the follicular epithelium which forms marked lobules surrounded by heavily vascularized connective tissue. It is thought that destruction of the lobule cells and penetration of the blood vessels due to increased mite numbers and activity leads to leucocytic infiltration with destruction of the mites and nodule deflation. In two instances of nodule deterioration a thickened skin plaque with markedly reduced mite populations remained in place of the nodule.Gross symptoms of demodicidosis are occasionally marked in animals maintained in the laboratory but have not been found in specimens from the field. This suggests that environmental or dietary factors may be important in the onset of gross symptoms of demodicidosis.This investigation was supported in part by a National Science Foundation (U.S.A.) grant (G-23321) and by a Commonwealth Scientific and an Industrial Research Organization (Australia) grant for marsupial research to the Zoology Department, A.N.U.Dr Herman Beerman, Professor and Chairman, Department of Dermatology, Graduate School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, very kindly read and criticized our interpretation of the pathology. We are grateful for his help.We would like to thank Margaret Dahlquist, Research Assistant, for her excellent technical assistance in the preparation of material for this report.

AbstractTwo female South American coatis (Nasua nasua) kept in a zoo in Southern Germany presented with pruritus and moderate hair loss at the dorsal trunk, thigh areas and alongside the tail. Otherwise the animals showed no clinical signs. While the clinical general examination as well as cytology of dermatologic samples showed no pathologic changes, Chorioptes sp. mites could be identified in a superficial skin scraping. Two consecutive topical applications of a selamectin/sarolaner spot-on formulation 4 weeks apart lead to a complete resolution. No side effects were observed.
