Parasites
Infective Stage of Nematodes
L3
Exudate grossly described as yellow, sheet like/ stringy
Fibrinous
Treats Sarcocystis Neurona that causes EPM
Causes disease only in situations that compromise the host’s defenses
Opportunistic pathogens
Which type of virus is more sensitve to disinfectants and less resistant in the environment?
Enveloped
What group is flat, bilaterally symmetrical, acoelomate, incomplete digestive tract
Trematodes
Pathogenesis: bacterial cytokines stimulate release and production of WBC from SNP. As demand increases, bands released from bone marrow (MatNP)
Acute inflammation leukogram
Treatment of choice for severe systemic fungal infections, and is banned in food animals
Amphotercin B
Highly resistant, thick-walled spores occurring in dormant/vegetative cells
Endospores
Abnormally folded protein resistant to protesases. Accumulate into fibrils and plaques
Prion
An advantage of the wet mount/smear diagnostic test
Observation of motile stage of protozoa
In a secondary infection (or reinfection), what antibody will predominate in serology
IgG
What type of infection are antivirals best used for
Persistent infections (ie retroviruses, herpesvirues etc)
Toxin part of the cell wall of Gram Negative Bacteria
Lipopolysaccharides (Endotoxins)
Group of virsues related by similar mutations where, under current conditions, one clone is predominant
Quasispecies
A non burrowing mite with long legs & circular body found on the body or in the ears
Psoroptes
Reciprocal of the highest dilution of the serum sample that gives a positive test result
Titer
Pyrethroids are prevented from use in which species
Cats
A yeast that causes crop mycosis (thrush) in poultry & metritis/vaginitis in horses
Candida Spp.
The period of time after the virus penetrates the cell but cannot be observed
Eclipse
Entamoeba histolytica locomotion
Pseudopodia (Rhizopod)
What is the acute vs convalecnet titer in an active infection
4-fold increase
A serious side effect of GS-441524, used to treat FIP
Urinary Stones
Not used in livestock due to carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic factors
Nitroimidazoles
