Vaccines and Vaccination
This type of immunization administers antigens. It induces an immune response and immunological memory. Some examples are Infection (Natural) and vaccination (Artificial).
What is Active Immunization
This protein is for the viral capsid
What is VP2
Inadequate samples equals this
What are inadequate results
This is the study of antigen-antibody interactions in vitro
What is serology
This tests the dose of the virus required to cause death in 50% of animals
What is Lethal Dose 50%
Some advantages of this type of vaccine include: No reversion to virulence or toxicity, no mutations or recombination, stable on storage, no residual virulence, and fewer regulatory cells
What is a killed vaccine
This strain of PARVO is found in the Caribbean
What is CPV-2a
This measures the capacity of a test to correctly identify the negative individuals; ((TN)/(TN+FP))x100
What is specificity
This detects the presence of antibodies or other products of the immune response in a sample. Positive results means exposure.
What is indirect
These cells detect MHC I and will kill on site
What are natural killer cells
Substances that facilitates or enhances immune response to an antigen with which it is combined
What are Adjuvants
If your animal is _____, the animal can still catch the disease
What is unvaccinated/partially vaccinated
This phase of testing involves reporting results and interpretation
What is post-analytical
This expresses concentration of antibodies/antigens, correlates with the highest dilution at which antibodies/antigens are still detectable, and has serial dilutions
What are titers
These types of cells are found in active immunity
What are T and B cells
This type of adjuvant enhances antigen presentation and results in cell-mediated immunity
What is particulate adjuvant
This test should be used over a SNAP test because it is more sensitive
What is a PCR test
This refers to the number of new cases of a disease in a time interval
What is incidence
This result is used when the cutoff are unclear
What is inconclusive
These types of parasites are hermaphroditic and and flat bodied
What are cestodes
This type of vaccine Clones the gene that codes the immunogenic protein, inserts it into a vector, causing the vaccinated host to be infected with the vector and inducing an immune response.
What is a recombinant organism vaccine
PARVO evolved from this virus found in felines
What is Feline Panleukopenia
This is determined by type of pathogen, type of sample needed, test characteristics, phase of the disease, availability, and cost
What is test selection
This uses enzyme labeled antibodies or antigens to, upon addition of a substrate, detect and/or measure the concentration of an analyte.
What is ELISA
These are in a Cryptobiotic state of dormancy and most durable type of cell found in nature, produce gram positive bacteria, and its function is to ensure survival during adverse environmental conditions.
What are endospores
