Cryptosporidium sp. merupakan protozoa gastrointestinal yang bersifat zoonosis pada ternak terutama sapi yang menyebabkan diare. penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi ada atau tidaknya protozoa cryptosporidium sp. pada sapi aceh yang berada di kecamatan kuta cot glie kabupaten aceh besar. sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 54 sampel feses sapi aceh yang diambil dari 4 desa dengan lokasi yang berbeda diantaranya desa ie alang keureumeh sebanyak 16 sampel, ie alang lamghui sebanyak 12 sampel, ie alang masjid sebanyak 17 sampel dan ie alang dayah sebanyak 9 sampel. sampel diperiksa dengan menggunakan metode modified ziehl-neelsen. hasil penelitian menunjukkan dari 54 sampel yang diperiksa ditemukan dua spesies cryptosporidium sp. di masing-masing desa yaitu yaitu cryptosporidium parvum dan cryptosporidium andersoni. pada desa ie alang keureumeh ditemukan angka prevalensi cryptosporidium parvum 31,2% sedangkan cryptosporidium andersoni 12,5%, pada desa ie alang lamghui ditemukan angka prevalensi cryptosporidium parvum 25% sedangkan cryptosporidium andersoni 0%, pada desa ie alang masjid ditemukan angka prevalensi cryptosporidium parvum 52,9% sedangkan cryptosporidium andersoni 17% dan pada desa ie alang dayah tidak ditemukan cryptosporidium parvum maupun cryptosporidium andersoni. pada penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa sapi aceh yang berada di kecamatan kuta cot glie kabupaten aceh besar terinfeksi cryptosporidium parvum dengan prevalensi 31,4% dan cryptosporidium andersoni dengan prevalensi 9,2%. berdasarkan uji analisis chi-square antara prevalensi cryptosporidium parvum dibandingkan cryptosporidium andersoni tidak adanya perbedaan yang nyata (p > 0,05). kata kunci: sapi aceh, cryptosporidium sp., modified ziehl-neelsen

Cryptosporidium sp. is a gastrointestinal protozoa that is zoonotic in livestock, especially cattle, which causes diarrhea. This study aims to identify the presence or absence of the protozoan Cryptosporidium sp. on aceh cattle in the sub-district of Kuta Cot Glie, Aceh Besar regency. The samples used were 54 samples of aceh cattle feces taken from 4 villages with different locations including 16 samples of Ie Alang Keureumeh village, 12 samples of Ie Alang Lamghui, 17 samples of Ie Alang Masjid and 9 samples of Ie Alang Dayah. Samples were examined using the modified Ziehl-Neelsen method. The results showed that from 54 samples examined, two species of Cryptosporidium sp. in each village, namely Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium andersoni. In the village of Ie Alang Keureumeh found the prevalence rate of Cryptosporidium parvum 31.2% while Cryptosporidium andersoni 12.5%, in the village of Ie Alang Lamghui the prevalence rate of Cryptosporidium parvum was 25% while Cryptosporidium andersoni 0%, in the village of Ie Alang Masjid found the prevalence rate of Cryptosporidium parvum 52.9% while Cryptosporidium andersoni was 17% and in Ie Alang Dayah village neither Cryptosporidium parvum nor Cryptosporidium andersoni were found. In this study, it can be concluded that aceh cattle in the Kuta Cot Glie sub-district, Aceh Besar regency, were infected with Cryptosporidium parvum with a prevalence of 31.4% and Cryptosporidium andersoni with a prevalence of 9.2%. Based on the chi-square analysis test between the prevalence of Cryptosporidium parvum versus Cryptosporidium andersoni there was no significant difference (P > 0.05).
