Abstract

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.

Conclusion

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.

印度尼西亚泗水动物园圈养长鼻猴（Nasalis larvatus）的胃肠蠕虫。

背景：保护长鼻猴（Nasalis larvatus）的一个制约因素是胃肠道蠕虫（GH）感染。在此，我们进行了一项研究，以确定印度尼西亚泗水动物园圈养长鼻猴的胃肠蠕虫感染率：从三个组别（即育儿笼[NC] [n = 1]、公共表演笼[SC] [n = 8]和自由放养群[FC] [n = 11]）收集了 20 份粪便样本。粪便样本通过麦克马斯特和糖浮技术进行检验：结果：GH 感染率为 85.00%（17/20）。我们确认毛滴虫、蛔虫、强线虫和带毛滴虫卵的海门螺杆菌是主要感染源。虽然感染率很高，但每克虫卵数（epg）却很低：印度尼西亚泗水动物园圈养长鼻猴的 GH 感染率很高。这些结果对今后的研究、控制和预防人畜共患病的有效性很有帮助。
