metastisize and spread through lymph.
Spread by inhalation
ingestion
What disease is associated with Pasteurella multocida in cows? Shipping Fever: fibrous pleuropneumonia and/or septicemia. Result of lowered resistence due to overcrowding
exhaustion
What are the common virulence factors associated with P. multocida? "Capsule (hyaluronic
capsular type A
What disease is associated with P. multocida in poultry? Fowl cholera: fulminating bacteremia
depression
Sheep: pneumonia
septicemia"
A or T
refer to fermenting ability"
What are the characteristics of Actinobacillus? "Gram -
urease +
What disease is caused by actinobacillus equuli equuli? "Septicemia (w/o gross lesions)
severe enteritis
What disease is caused by Actinobacillus equuli hemolytica? "Suppurative pneumonia in adult horses
typically due to over training.
What are the characteristics of hemophilus? "Gram -
facultative anaerobes
Some indole +
some can use N2 instead of O2"
"The species of hemophilus are ______
meaning they require ________ for growth. (multiple answeres for 2nd blank)
2. Require X factor (heme
for transport) and V factor (NAD).
Why has histophilus somnus been renamed? It previously belonged to the genus hemophilus
but does not require an X or V factor. So it has been moved to a "catch all" genus
Atrophic rhinitis in pigs - sneezing
coughing
Bordetella bronchiseptica is obligate parasite of _____________. URT of dogs
pigs
What are the associated virulence factors?" "Intestinal adenomatosis: necrotic enteritis
proliferative ileitis. Obligate intracellular parasite.
What are the characteristics of spirochaetales? "Thin
but long and flexible
Coiled
corkscrew motility by axial filaments
What is a common disease characteristic in Borrelia species? Relapsing fever: initial outgrowth of infecting population causes emergence of variety of antigenically distinct clones during out growth
causing a relapse at a later time.
What disease is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi? Lyme Disease (dogs
humans); transmitted by ticks. Antigenically stable in blood (produces no varients). Present with lameness in 1+ joint and large round rash
What disease is caused by Borrelia anserina? Fowl Spirochetosis: systemic infection. Depression
profuse diarrhea. Death within 1-2 days.
What are the characteristics of leptospirosis? "Long
thing
How many species of leptospirosis are medically important? 1. L. interrogtans
but it has MANY serovars
Animals infected with a serovar from another host is typically resistant
but if it does develop disease it is typically more virulent. "
Reproduce in large numbers in interstitial and parenchymatous regions of the liver
spleen
Immune cells typically engluf most of these organisms
but fail to get bacteria with little antigenic protection (eye = uveitis
Acute infection: icterus
uremia
What is the lepto serovar that has a pig host? "Lepto. pomona: typically causes fever
anorexia.
Accidental in horses
but causes uveitis. "
The cow is the host of what lepto serovar? Lepto Hardjo: causes fever
anorexia
Hypersecretion of water/electrolytes. Dehydration leads to acidosis and death. Colonic diarrhea by invasion/inflammation of colonic epithelium
but inflammation limits infection. "
What are the characteristics of brucella? "Nonmotile
gram -
What is erythritol? Four carbon polyhydric alcohol factor that enhances infecting organisms of brucella
but is only present in hosts prone to abortion.
What disease is caused by Brucella abortus? Brucellosis: cauases abortion and epididymitis. Generalized infection of reticuloendothelial system
but generalized in placenta and male genetalia.
Differentiated by A/M antigens
growth on dye
Why can brucella be a particularly difficult infection to clear? It lives intracellularly within macrophages
the phagocytic cells of the immune system that are suppose to kill the bacteria.
Gram -
rods
What disease (symtoms) are caused by anaplasma marginale and centrale? Anemia
severe cases can cause icterus. Enlarged spleen
What disease is associated with Neorickettsia risticii? Potomac fever in horses: fever
profuse diarrhea
What disease is associated with chlamydophila psittaci? "Avian Chlamydosis: occular
respiratory or systemic. Profuse diarrhea and general wasting. Respiratory transmission is most common.
