WIRZAL KESATRIA. Profile of Dairy Cattle Erythrocytes which Chronical Infected
by Babesia sp. Supervised by AGUS WIJAYA and LENI MAYLINA.
Babesiosis
is an endoparasite disease which is infected by Babesia sp. This genus
parasite is classified as an intracellular obligate parasite. Babesia sp.
can cause the disease which clinical symptoms such as anemia, fatigue, and
weakness in animal. This research aim is to obtain the profile erythrocytes of
dairy cattle which is chronically infected by Babesia sp. Information
obtained can be used as a basis for performing a treatment action and
prevention of Babesiosis on dairy cattle. Blood sample was taken at Kunak dairy
cattle Cibungbulang, Bogor, West Java. Blood samples were collected from the
coccygea vein or jugularis veins. Twenty one dairy cattles used in this
research where divided into 2 groups, namely 6 tails as a control while 15
tails were chronical by infected Babesia sp. The result showed that the
average number of erythrocytes (5.17 ± 0.97 x106/μL), the concentration of
hemoglobin (9.39 ± 1.58 g/dL) and level of hematocrit (28.07 ± 4.67 %). Based
on erythrocytes index dairy cattles that suffer from Babesiosis showed the
decreasing of erythrocytes, concentration of hemoglobin and hematocrit values
where leads to anemia normocytic normochromic.
