Abstract

Sarcoptes scabiei (Dee Geer) adalah tungau penyebab penyakit skabies atau kudis. Tungau hidup di lapisan kulit manusia dan hewan mamalia. Saat ini taksonomi spesies S. scabiei dibedakan berdasarkan hospes/inang sehingga S. scabiei yang hidup di manusia disebut S. scabiei var. hominis. Upaya pengendalian dan pemberantasan skabies di manusia terutama ditingkat komunitas memerlukan pemahaman mengenai S. scabiei sebagai agen penyebab penyakit dan interaksi dengan manusia sebagai tempat hidupnya. Artikel ini membahas S. scabiei var. hominis ditinjau dari biologi tungau dan interaksi antara tungau dengan manusia.Sarcoptes scabiei (Dee Geer) is the mite that causes scabies or mange. The mites live in the skin layers of humans and mammals. Nowadays, S. scabiei is classified according to their hospes and S. scabiei that lives in human is called Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. Controlling and eradicating human scabies, especially at the community level, requires understanding scabies as a pathogen and its interaction with humans. This paper discusses the biology of S. scabiei var. hominis and the interactions between mites and humans as hosts.
