6/9 Flashcards
Non host specific salmonella in pigs
s. choleraesuis: typhoid
s. typhimurium
food safety
most frequently sub clinical
diarrhea + general symptoms
slow spread consistent
hyperacture and acute in older pigs- cyanosis
chronic form- smaller pig- behind in growth rate
carriers
salmonella in pig dx
bacterial culture
ELISA - Ag - Cheaper and Faster
ELISA - Ab (control programs)
Tx of salmonella in pigs
antibiotics, general support in acute NSAIDs
Px of salmonella in pigs
Mgmt AI-AO cleaning and disinfectant. Supplement feed with organic acids, short chain fatty acids, in feed or drinking water . Want in ileum and large intestine to lower ph. Feed composition- particle size: influence stomach ph. Want it to be lower. have been working on a vax for a few years but didnt work still in developement.
typhoid salmonella in horses
salmonella abortus - uptake dependent
per os salmonella in horses
septicemia: endotoxic shock
venereal salmonella in horses
invasize, polyarthritis
stallion salmonella in horses
reduced fertility
mare salmonella in horses
abortion, live foals acute mortality, polyarthritis, persistent infections ( intracellular) several abortions septicemic foals
salmonella in horses DX, TX
bacteriology, antimicrobials , elimination from repro organs is difficult
Non specific salmonella in horses
short incubation period, clinical problems mild (fever anorexia depression possible diarrhea) very acute. Mortality. hyperacute: septicemic (endotoxic shock). Chronic: source of infection
DX : difficult: isolation from feces frequently unsuccessful)
Acute form nonspecific salmonella in horses
fever anorexia mild colic severe symtoms with cyanosis (blue mm) gram - = LPS shock. laminitis after recovery. Slow recovery and relapse. Can evolve to chronic (intracellular) intermittent diarrhea anorexia weight reduction
hyperacute nonspecific salmonella in horses
only foals (immunity less developed) severe general symptoms eventual diarrhea endotoxic shock with death in 24 to 72 hours. if they survive tissue localization- often arthritis
nonsalmonella in horses dx, therapy
Neutropenia
HYDRATE! Shock : NSAIDS….NO CORTICOS= laminitis. Antimicrobials, be careful of carriers.
Salmonella in cats and dogs: nonspecific host
enteritis and septicemia. origin: feed. dx:culture, ELISA (Ag), PCR tx: hydration Antibiotics careful, may become carriers, may contaminate the house. Be wary of clients with children.
