ADENOVIRUS Flashcards
Adenoviruses are resistant to detergents and lipid solvents.
T
Adenoviruses are enveloped viruses, therefore they are sensitive to detergents
F (non-enveloped)
Adenoviruses are resistant to detergents
T
Adenoviruses are arboviruses.
F
Adenoviruses are not too resistant enveloped viruses
F
Adenoviruses have mostly a broad host spectrum (euryxen pathogens)
F
Adenoviruses are poor antigens
F
There is no cross reactivity and cross protection among adenoviruses within genera
F
There are no serological cross-reactions between different adenovirus species
F
Adenovirus infections always result in severe disease
F
lntranuclear inclusion bodies are frequently seen in adenovirus-infected tissues.
T
In immunocompromised foals equine adenoviruses may cause severe respiratory disease
T
Several adenoviruses of domestic animals are zoonotic agents
F
Adenoviruses usually cause central nervous diseases with high lethality.
F
Only attenuated vaccines can be applied for immunization against adenoviruses.
F (live (attenuated) + inactivated)
Crowded keeping conditions may facilitate the spread of adenoviruses in a population
T (imp to not avoid this!)
Adenoviruses infect only mammalian hosts
F
Adenoviruses usually cause central nervous diseases with high lethality.
F
Adenoviruses are zoonotic agents
F
Serological cross-reactions may be seen between adenoviruses within the same genus.
T
we can not find adenovirus in cat
T- cant see in pq file, must check
Adenoviruses are good antigens.
T
Adenovirus may cause subclinical infections
T
Equine adenovirus causes haemorrhagic enteritis in foals.
