| Summary: | Leptospirosis is a disease which widely spread in the world. Leptospirosis
is caused by pathogenic bacteria of leptospira genus and it is a zoonotic.
Leptospirosis infect farm animals, wild animals, domestic animals, and humans.
Leptospira attack organs such as the kidneys, liver, lungs, and reproductive
organs. The aims of this research was to determine the profile of SGOT and SGPT
in bovine leptospirosis in Seyegan, Moyudan, and Minggir Subdistrict Sleman
Regency.
A hundred and fourty seven cattles were used as a sampel. Ten milliliters
blood were collected from the jugular vein using venoject. Serum was separated,
for Microscopic Agglutination Test (MAT) were conducted in Bbalitvet Bogor.
The MAT result is positive if agglutination between antibodies and antigens
occurs in 50% dilution of 1:100 or more. If MAT was positive, liver function test
was done to determine the content of Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase
(SGOT) and Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT). If the levels of
SGOT or SGPT was found above normal, the measurement in the same sampel
size would be done to use as a comparation. This test was performed at Pramita
Laboratory, Yogyakarta. The results were analyzed using T-Test and
descriptively.
The MAT results showed that 27 from 147 samples (18,37%) were
positive. A total of 7 from 26 samples (27%) showed elevated levels of SGPT. TTest
results showed that there were very significant difference of SGPT levels
between samples from positif MAT group (leptospirosis) and negative MAT
groups (healthy). The levels of SGOT showed no increase from the normal value.
From the research can be concluded that: (1) 18,37% cattles in the subdistrict
Seyegan, Moyudan, Minggir Sleman Regency were diagnosed with leptospirosis.
(2) A total of 27% cattles that were infected by leptospira showed elevated levels
of SGPT significantly. (3) The cattles that have elevated levels of SGPT were
infected by leptospira hardjo and ichterohaemorrhagiae serovar.
