Credit Flashcards
What methods are used to reduce disease occurence?
Radical method
Elimination
Vaccination
What is the importance of colostrum?
Forming a natural passive immunization from mother to baby via milk.
Creating a specific immunity and specific resistance through active immunoprophylaxis.
What is OIE?
World Health Organization for animals.
Providing information of animal diseases and the clinical signs, diagnosis methods and treatment
What is the core vaccination in cats?
- FHV1, FCV, FPV
- In kittens and outdoor cats also FLV and rabies in rabies affected countries or if planning on traveling abroad.
- Given around 9 and 11 weeks of age
FHV = Feline Herpes Vaccination 1
FCV = Feline Calici virus
FPV = Feline Panleukopenia virus
When is simultaneous tuberculin test performed in cattle breeding and what is the method?
- In breeding’s with occurrence of positive and doubtful reagents for mammalian tuberculin in single tuberculin test
- To easier distinguish between two different mycobacterium if infected with M. bovis or other mycobacterium not causing tuberculosis
Tuberculin testing – injection of 0.1ml into neck, monitor positive result
(swelling) after 72h.
When is PCR virological examination for blue tongue performed?
In the case of suspicion of blue tongue, preferable are examined animals with clinical signs of the disease
What examinations are performed in case of abortion in cattle?
- Serological examination bacteriological cultivation, virological examination (PCR)
- Aborted fetus together with its placenta should be collected, examined and tested for for viral, bacterial or parasitic infection e.g. Neospora caninum, Brucella abortus etc.
What is the core vaccination in dogs?
CPV-2, CDV, CAV-2 and rabies in countries with the virus present or planning on traveling
Canine Parvo Virus - 2
Canine Distemper Virus
Canine Infectious Hepatitis
(Canine Adeno VIrus - 2 )???
Start vaccination from 8 weeks, booster at earliest 12 weeks old and then 1 year old and continue with it yearly.
Rabies recommended when 1st and 2nd dose of core vaccination is finished.
What is the time for interpretation of the results after the simultaneous intradermal test In cattle?
72h for an potential reaction against the injected allergen, seen in skin as an increased edematous skin reaction to the histamine = production of IgE against the allergen
What are we talking about; a doubtful result in simple tuberculin test?
If no clinical signs are observed, such as diffuse or extensive oedema, exudation, necrosis, pain or inflammation of the lymphatic vessels in this area or lymph nodes, or if the increase in skin fold thickness is more than 2 mm but less than 4 mm
The aim of preventive sanitation is
To create unfavorable conditions for the existence and replication of the infective etiological agents, their vectors and reservoirs.
Thereby protecting animals, objects/materials and the environment, preventing a potential infection or spreading
Which serological examination is prescribed in quarantine for horses intended for further breeding and production and which important third countries and member states?
Brucellosis
What does it mean with radical method of disease reduction?
- All animals have to be killed/euthanized in an outbreak
- Final disinfection and rodent contril in stable/farms
- Observation period - Wait for no CS to appear and negative laboratory tests.
Against which diseases are oral vaccination performed?
Blue tongue
African Swine Fever
Rabies
What vaccine type are most commonly used in cats?
Non-adjuvant
Allowing for a safer inoculation with a less risk of tumor formation (FISS - Feline Injection-site Sarcoma)
Used in for example newer rabies vaccines.
