Non-cytopathic
34
What is the cause of perisistently infected cattle?
pregnant cattle becoming infected between 42 and 125 days
35
How is BVDV transmitted?
direct or close contact with infected cattle Iatrogenic transmission PI CATTLE!!
36

38
How do you diagnose BVDV?
Virus isolation from nasal swabs ELISA Serology
39
What is the important part of preventing BVDV?
Biosecurity | Vaccination
40
What is the treatment for PI calves?
Euthanized | Fed to market weight
41
Shipping Fever
several factors that disrupt the innate immunity and mucociliary apparatus of the host allowing commensals to overgrow
42
What is the first lobe to be infected in cows with bacterial pneumonia?
Right Tracheal Bronchial Lobe
43
What is one of the most important pathogens of domestic cattle?
Manheimia haemolytica
44
What is the primary bacterial agent responsible for bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis?
Manheimia haemolytica
45
What is the route of transmission for Manheimia haemolytica?
Inhalation of bacteria containing droplets Direct nose to nose contact ingestion of feed contaminated with nasal discharges
46
What are the clinical signs associated with Manheimia haemolytica?
``` DART D - Depression A - Anorexia R - Respiration T - Temperature (Fever) Cough ```
47
What does Mannheimia haemolytica cause?
Severe fibrinous pleuropneumonia | "Hepatization" of the lung
48

Pasteurella multocida
49
What is important about Pasteurella multocida?
Zoonotic
50
What does Pasteurella multocida cause?

What causes ABPE (Fog Fever)?
1-tryptophan present in the pasture is metabolized in the rumen to 3-methylindole which in turn is absorbed into the bloodstream and carried to the lungs 3-methylindole causes extensive and selective necrosis of bronchiolar cells and type 1 pneumocytes and increased alveolar permeability leading to edema, thickening the alveolar interstitium and alveolar and interstitial emphysema

What are the lesions associated with ABPE?
diffuse interstitial pneumonia with severe alveolar and interstitial edema and interlobular emphysema

67
How do you prevent ABPE?
allow younger animals to graze the pastures first will lower the incidence in older cows by reducing the amount of Tryptophan rich grass feeding ionophores to change the volatile fatty acid production to proprionic acid
68
Dictyocaulus viviparous
parasite migrates to the bronchi causing severe bronchial irritation, bronchitis, and pulmonary edema
69
What is the signalment for Dictyocaulus viviparous?
