Serum liver enzyme profile in Timor deer (Cervus timorensis) with fascioliasis in Indonesia

Abstract: Timor deer (Cervus timorensis) at Surabaya zoo, Indonesia, that were found to be naturally infected with Fasciola, showed elevated level of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Of a total of 75 deer examined, 12 (25%) of the 47 adult deer and 8 (29%) of the 28 juvenile deer were found to be infected with fascioliasis, as evidenced by the shedding of the parasite eggs. The level of ALT, AST and ALP were significantly elevated (p<0.05) in all the… Show more

“…Once the oocyst is outside the host's body, it will experience sporulation. The presence of oxygen, temperature, humidity, and lack of direct contact with ultraviolet radiation, supports oocyst survival and sporulation (Purnama et al, 2021). This life cycle phase of Eimeria spp.…”

“…The high calcium and vitamin D content in cow's milk is essential for growth from toddlerhood to adolescence. Several studies have shown that cow's milk stimulates Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), which mediates growth hormone (Grenov et al, 2021;Purnama et al, 2021). These crucial benefits are to be considered because toddlers are vulnerable to infection with Cryptosporidium sp.…”
