“…Knowing that farmers are very close to this kind of environment then the preventive effort is required as well as the socialization to the preventive behavior of Leptospirosis. 20 Open access under CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 International License Age factor in this research has no relationship to the preventive behavior. The result is different to Hasanah, Nugraheni and Wahyuni's.…”

Public Health is the resultant from an balance of individual, agent, and environment problems. Individual knowledge and the ability to adapt to the environment vary greatly. The individual awareness and sensibility towards surroundings will contribute to the public health status. Environmental factor in the raining season with high intensity of rainfall cause some risks such as flood. It can be a disaster and destroy the facilities in the area. This can be a transmission media, a new habitat of insects for certain disease, one of them is Leptospirosis. The condition after flood with low level of clean water facilities can make these bacteria live and reproduce, with warm temperatures, neutral pH of water, humidity and also high rainfall. Leptospirosis cases in Indonesia are sufficiently high which in 2019, there are 845 cases with mortality rate for 16.26%. Some factors may affect the number of the case. This research is aimed to know the factors related to the preventive behavior of leptospirosis. It was held in Public Health Center Berbah Yogyakarta. The method of research is quantitative research with design survey method, quasi experiment. The population is the clients visiting to Public Health Center Berbah, with the average number of clients coming are 200 clients/day. The sample is taken by accidental sampling to the clients with the number of daily visits (50 persons). The result shows, that of five analyzed factors, knowledge is the factor related to the preventive behavior of leptospirosis.

“…The test for leptospirosis in the laboratory showed that the most vulnerable species to be exposed to leptospirosis was R. tanezumi or domestic rats. Several studies have also shown that cases of leptospirosis were found in rats near residential areas (Ardanto et al, 2018;Farida et al, 2006;Ikawati et al, 2013b). Human activities in the forest, such as collecting woods, hunting, and ecotourism activities could increase the risk of the transmission of leptospirosis to humans.…”

BACKGROUND: Small mammals such as rats and bats are important animal reservoirs of various zoonotic diseases of public health importance. The potential of rats and bats as a reservoir of leptospirosis and Japanese Encephalitis (JE) in Muna Regency remains unknown. This study aimed to determine the presence of Leptospira spp and JE virus (JEV) in rats and bats in Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in three districts, namely Kabawo, Batalaiworu, and Katobu. Bats and rats were caught in six ecosystems spread across the three districts. Serological (Microscopic Agglutination Test, MAT) and molecular examinations (Polymerase Chain Reactions, PCR) were performed to detect Leptospira spp. and JEV in rats and bats, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 137 rats from seven species were successfully caught, namely Mus sp., Rattus argentiventer, R. nitidus, R. exulans, R. hoffmanni, R. norvegicus, and R. tanezumi. Of which, six species were confirmed positive for Leptospira spp by PCR, with the highest prevalence was found in R. argentiventer (50%) and R. tanezumi (36.4%). Meanwhile, a total of 86 bats were also successfully captured. The JEV antibody was detected in D. viridis, R. celebensis and S. wallacei. CONCLUSION: Rats and bats are the potential reservoirs of leptospirosis and JE in Muna Regency. Most importantly, the study provides the first evidence of JE reservoirs (R. celebensis and S. wallacei) in Sulawesi. Surveillance of leptospirosis and JE are recommended.

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by bacteria from the genus Leptospira. Leptospira bacteria can infect rats, dogs, cats, raccoons, cattle, horses, and other mammals. The main reservoir of leptospirosis in Indonesia is rats. Indonesia is a country with a high risk of developing leptospirosis, considering the occurrence of flooding and the presence of stagnant water, and poor drainage and sanitation conditions in several residential areas. This study aims to detect Leptospira spp. bacteria in kidney tissues of rats in the Ciomas Sub-district, Bogor District, West Java. This study was a descriptive-analytic study with a crosssectional design. Its survey was conducted in Batu City Village, Mekarjaya, and Parakan, Ciomas Sub-district. The rats caught were counted for density, identified the species, and taken kidney samples to be examined for the presence of Leptospira using the Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) method. The density of rats in this study, which was based on the success of catching rats in Parakan Village, was 26%, Mekarjaya 17.3%, and Kota Batu 15.3%. The total number of rats caught was 88. The rat species caught were Rattus tanezumi (54.5%), Bandicota indica (21.6%), Rattus norvegicus (20.5%) and Mus musculus (3.4%). The results of the PCR test found that 22 out of 88 rat samples were positive for Leptospira. All species caught were positive for Leptospira with the following percentages, Bandicota indica (50%), Rattus norvegicus (27.3%), Rattus tanezumi (18.2%), and Mus musculus (4.5%). Leptospira bacteria were successfully detected in rat kidneys using the RT-PCR method. The public can increase their awareness by keeping the environment clean in an effort to prevent leptospirosis transmission.
