“…Another study by Abd-Elmegeed et al ( 2020) showed higher infection rates in male animals as compared to female animals (Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020). Many studies reported cattle infection with T. verrucosum in the Asian countries, including Iraq (Hussein et al 1989; AL-Samarrae 2009), Iran (Shams et al 2009;Shokri and Khosravi 2016), Turkey (Ozkanlar and Kirecci 2009), Saudi Arabia (Khaled et al 2015) and Egypt (Abou-Gabal et al 1976;Bagy et al 1986;Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020). The prevalence of fungal infection were also found significant in European countries, including United Kingdom (Oldenkamp 1979), Norway (Stenwig 1985), Germany (Berlin et al 2020), and Italy (Atzori et al 2012).…”

“…According to studies conducted by Pascoe (1979) and Shams et al (2009) the prevalence rate was higher in the young animals. Another study by Abd-Elmegeed et al ( 2020) showed higher infection rates in male animals as compared to female animals (Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020). Many studies reported cattle infection with T. verrucosum in the Asian countries, including Iraq (Hussein et al 1989; AL-Samarrae 2009), Iran (Shams et al 2009;Shokri and Khosravi 2016), Turkey (Ozkanlar and Kirecci 2009), Saudi Arabia (Khaled et al 2015) and Egypt (Abou-Gabal et al 1976;Bagy et al 1986;Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020).…”

“…Direct microscopic examination, culture, Wood's lamp examination, histopathology, PCR assay are mostly used for diagnosis of the infection (OIE 2013). However, molecular test along with culture results showed as gold standard approaches for detection of the infection (Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020). In this chapter, we highlighted the etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment and control of the infection among cattle.…”

“…Dermatofitosis dapat menyebabkan penurunan kualitas ternak akibat penurunan kualitas kulit dan berat badan yang berdampak terhadap penurunan harga jual ternak yang menimbulkan kerugian ekonomi peternak. Selain itu juga dapat menyebabkan terjadinya peningkatan biaya pengobatan ternak sehingga peternak mengalami kerugian (Abd-Elmegeed et al, 2020). Tanda klinis yang umumnya ditemukan pada hewan yang terinfeksi adalah adanya kebotakan (alopesia), berkerak, atau lesi kemerahan.…”

Penyakit kulit menjadi salah satu isu penting pada peternakan karena dapat menyebabkan kerugian ekonomi akibat dampak zoonosis, penurunan kualitas dan harga jual ternak domba. Penyebab penyakit kulit seperti dermatofit dan infestasi ektoparasit menjadi perhatian serius. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendapatkan informasi penyebab penyakit kulit pada ternak domba yang baru didatangkan ke peternakan guna membantu peternak agar tidak terjadi kesalahan dalam mengenali jenis penyakit kulit sehingga dapat membantu dokter hewan dalam penentuan penanggulangan yang tepat. Penelitian dilakukan pada 10 ekor domba yang baru hadir pada lokasi peternakan Kandangku, Bubulak Bogor yang dilaksanakan pada tanggal 13 dan 23 September 2022. Teknik koleksi data primer diperoleh dari hasil pemeriksaan klinis dan pencatatan body condition score (BCS), hasil evaluasi mikroskopik dari sampel rambut dan kulit menggunakan metode kerokan kulit dan trichogram. Jika hasil mikroskopik menemukan spora jamur, selanjutnya dilakukan kultur dermatofit menggunakan Kruse Dermatophyte Test  serta pemeriksaan sitologi kultur. Gejala klinis pada kedua penyebab penyakit kulit sangat serupa yakni alopesia, rambut rapuh, berketombe dan keropeng sedangkan rata-rata BCS sekitar 1.3. Hasil pemeriksaan kerokan kulit ditemukan ektoparasit Bovicola ovis pada dua ekor domba, hasil pemeriksaan trichogram berupa temuan spora jamur dermatofit ditemukan pada seluruh domba yang diteliti, sedangkan pemeriksaan lanjut kultur dermatofit menunjukkan hasil mikroskopik adanya bentuk hifa dan jenis konidia jamur non dermatofit yaitu Aspergillus sp. Pencegahan dan penanggulangan dini terhadap kedua penyebab penyakit kulit memerlukan perhatian untuk mencegah kerugian peternak diantaranya dengan peningkatan BCS melalui pemenuhan nutrisi hewan didukung dengan sanitasi.

“…These fungi have a worldwide distribution (Begum et al 2020) In animals, they only produce tinea, while in humans they can cause onychomycosis, as well as different types of tinea, depending on the anatomic site of the lesion (Bonifaz et al 2010). In equines, the most commonly isolated species correspond to Trichophyton equinum, Trichophyton verrucosum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Nannizzia gypsea (Microsporum gypseum) and Microsporum canis (Salem et al 2018;Grob et al 2018;Abd-Elmegeed et al 2020;Dukik et al 2020).…”

Development and standardize of PCR for diagnose of most common equine dermatophytes was carried out. We used one reference strain and four isolates characterized by routinely methods from clinical samples. Sabouraud broth was used to obtain the fungal mass by long 8 days incubation. Once the mass was dried, it was pulverized with liquid nitrogen in a mortar and deposited in tubes to obtained DNA by phenolic extraction. NCBI GenBank data were used for the primer design, the sequences were aligned manually and once the initiators were selected, they were placed in the DNAMAN program, in order to differentiate the five species involved. We diagnosed successfully common dermatophytes in Equidae by standardized PCR test. A total of 50 samples were used for the challenge test, 22 have been declared positive by conventional diagnostic methods, and the remaining samples were selected randomly the obtained results were similar compared with conventional test. M. canis primers were highly sensitive. For the others species we need more samples to corroborate the usefulness of the test.
