07 - Salmonella Flashcards
(Salmonellosis in Poultry)
KNOW THESE NAAMES REALLY WELL
(read slide first)
- Infection commonly persists where?
- In poultry house, feces of infected chicks contaminate environment, thus spreading infection to other chicks. S. Pullorum can survive in litter for several months.
- in ovaries (and eggs may be contaminated)
chicks hatched from infected eggs are a source of infections to toerh chicks in hatchery
(Salmonella serotype Pullorum)
- Aka what?
- infects what?
cause mortality?
- Symptoms and Lesions?
- white bacillary diarrhea or Pullorum disease
- young chicks and turkey poults up to 2-3 weeks of age
yes. .. high mortaliity - depressed and huddle under heat source
anorexic
whitish fecal pasting around vents
white nodes in lungs
necrotic lesions in liver and spleen
(Salmonellosis in Poulty)
(Salmonella ser. Gallinarum)
- aka what?
- similar cycle of infection from the hen to the chick as in pullorum disease…
what is it?
- Usually affect growing or adult birds more of young birds?
- Disease has been eradicated in US
- fowl typhoid
- ovaries –> eggs –> chick –> other chicks
(similar symptoms to S. Pullorum in chicks)
- gworing and adults
(severity of outbreaks vary fom acute with high mortality rates (>50%) to chornic infection
(Salmonellosis in Poulty)
(Fowl Typhoid)
- symptoms?
- LEsions?
- Diagnosis?
(Non-host adapted Salmonella)
(PAratyphoid)
- transmission to poultry due to what?
- contaminated feed (animal by products such as meat and bone meal), hatcheries and environment
egg tranmission from infected breeder flocks to chicks
(Salmonellosis in Cattle)
- What are the most common causes of Bovine Salmonellosis?
- Affect what age?
acute or chronic?
- Salmonella serovar dublin, S. Serovar Typhimurium
- any (calves more susceptible)
either
(Salmonellosis in Cattle)
(S. Dublin)
- host adapted. can infected cattle be carriers?
- S. Dublin can survive in feces for 2-4 months. PAstures, food, and water may become contaminated from feces of carrier animals or aborted fetuses and fetal membranes.
- yes (no symptoms) (excrete organism intermittently in the feces)
(Salmonellosis in Cattle)
(Salmonella Typhinurium)
- host adapted?
- infection of cattle may originate form disease in another animal species… usually occurs in what age?
- Pathogenesis is similar to infection with S. Dublin… but chronic carriers…?
- symptoms (calves)?
- lesions?
- no
- 2-6 week old calves
- over a period of several years does not occur frequently
- fever, diarrhea with brown or greenish-brown feces… and sometimes blood
- occasionally arthritis, pneumonia, encephalitis
(Salmonellosis in Cattle)
(Salmonella Typhinurium)
- symptoms (adults)
- drop in milk production/fever/feces with blood and may contain shreds of mucus membrane. Cow becomes very weak and may die in 1-5 days. Abortion in pregnant cows
(if death does not occur, diarrhea and emaciation may continue until recovery)
(Salmonellosis in Cattle)
(Paratyphoid Salmonella in Cattle)
(Salmoneloosis in pigs)
- what types?
- What is the most common in the us and caues necrotic enterities?
- Incubation period is usually what?
mode of infectoin?
- S. choleraesuis, S. typhisuis, and non-host adapted types
- S. choleraesuis
- several days
