Uji Aktifitas Ekstrak Daun Binahong (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) steenis) terhadap Telur Cacing Ostertagia sp. pada Kambing Peranakan Etawa secara in Vivo

Abstract

Gastrointestinal (GI) nematodes are widely recognized as a significant impediment to the achievement of optimal sheep production outcomes. The management of these parasites is predominantly dependent on the utilization of chemical anthelmintics. In recent decades, there has been a growing concern regarding the emergence of anthelmintic resistance across different categories of anthelmintics, as well as the issue of drug residues in animal products. Consequently, there has been a renewed interest in exploring medicinal plants as a potential alternative source of anthelmintics. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the anthelmintic effectiveness of Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) steenis uses scientifically established in vivo on PE goats. The treatments applied in this study were made up of binahong leaf extract at concentrations of 0mg/ml, 5mg/ml, 10mg/ml, and 15mg/ml. The variable subject study was the efficacy of binahong leaf extract on Ostertagia sp. eggs. The findings of the investigation on the extract derived from binahong leaves exhibited a significant impact on diminishing the quantity of Ostertagia sp. eggs. The binahong leaf extract concentration of 15mg/ml exhibited the highest efficacy in reducing worm eggs, resulting in a reduction rate of 97.5%.
