BVD Flashcards
BVDV can be frequently detected in the background of respiratory diseases
T
BVD virus is particularly resistant to disinfectants
F
Rodents play a central role in the maintenance of BVD virus in the environment
F
Cytopathic and non-cytopathic biotypes of the Bovine Viral Diarrhoea (BVD) virus are known
T
In utero infection with non-cytopathic BVDV can cause seropositivity of the newborn calf
T
Non cytopathic strains of Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) can cause hydrocephalus and
cerebellar hypoplasia
F
In utero infection with non cytopathic BVDV can cause immunotolerance
T
In utero infection with cytopathic BVDV strain results immunotolerant calves
F
Swine are not susceptible to BVD
F
Two serotypes of the BVD virus are known so far, serotype 2 is more virulent
F
Pigs infected with BVDV turn seropositive to classical swine fever
T
Persistently infected cattle can maintain BVDV in a farm
T
Cytopathic strains of Bovine Viral diarrhoea (BVDV) alone can cause mucosal disease
F
Non-cytopathic BVD virus strain can mutate and become cytopathic
T
The BVD virus can infect pigs also
T
Cytopathic strains of the Bovine Viral Diarrhoea virus (BVDV) can cause abortion
T
Non cytopathic strains of Bovine Viral Diarrhoea virus (BVDV) do not cause transplacental
infection
F
Intrauterine BVD virus infection always causes abortion
F
In sheep BVDV causes symptoms similar to border disease
T
Mucosal disease can develop in cattle persistently infected with BVDV
F
Non cytopathic strains of Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) can cause immunosuppression
T
BVDV can be transmitted by semen
T
BVD virus cannot be transmitted via artificial insemination
F
In mucosal disease sharp edged, usually round or oval ulcers can be observed on the oral
mucosa
