HERPESVIRUS Flashcards
Herpesviruses are good antigens.
F
Alphaherpesviruses are host specific slowly multiplying (>24hrs) viruses
F (betaherpesvirus is more than 24 h)
<24 h
Alphaherpesviruses may cause latent infection in neurons of ganglia
T
Herpesviruses are sensitive to detergents
T
Some herpesviruses have a broad host spectrum (euryxen)
T
- aujeszky
- malignant catarrhal fever
- turkey herpesvirus
Gammaherpesviruses may cause latent infection in neurons of ganglia
F
Herpes viruses are resistant to detergents
F
Herpesviruses are generally weak antigens
T
Herpesviruses can cause latent persistent infections
T
Herpesviruses are typically stenoxen viruses, but there are significant exceptions
T
Herpesviruses are strong antigens, therefore single vaccinations provide lifelong
protection
F
Herpesviruses are enveloped viruses, therefore they are sensitive to detergents
T
There are no serological cross-reactions between different herpesvirus species.
F
Because the genome of herpesvnruses is very stable, no attenuated mutant vaccine
strains are available.
F
Infectious bovine vulvovaginitis virus strains cause abortions and foetal deformities
F
Herpesvirus infections frequently result in latent virus carry.
T
Herpesviruses usually cause latent infections and life-long virus carries
T
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus can cause abortion.
T (sporadic , mainly in heifers)
The use of marker vaccines can help the eradication of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis
virus.
T
The most frequently used eradication strategy for IBRV is selection with the help of
marker vaccines
T
Marker vaccines can be used in IBRV eradication programs in cattle farms.
T
Antibodies against infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) might be detected in the
milk
T
Conjunctivitis and blepharitis are signs of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis.
T
The infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) causes haemorrhagic gastroenteritis.
F
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus also causes mastitis in cows
F
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus is transmitted by arthropods
F
Aerogen, po
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus can cause fatal encephalitis in calves
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis virus frequently causes encephalitis in old cow and
bulls
F (calves)
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis virus frequently causes encephalitis in old sow and bulls
F (calves)
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis can be endemic on cattle farms
T
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus can cause skin lesions on the genitals
T
Bulls can shed the infectious bovine rhinotracheitis with semen
T
Pregnant cows should be immunized with inactivated vaccines against IBRV
T
Attenuated vaccines are used in pregnant cows against Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis
virus
F
Because Bovine herpesvirus l causes latent infections; it is not possible to eradicate it
from a cattle population
F
Bovine herpesvirus l may cause encephalitis in calves.
T
IBRV may cause encephalitis in calves.
T
Only inactivated vaccines are available against Bovine herpesvirus l.
F
Pregnant cows can be immunized against IBRV only with attenuated vaccines.
F
Bovine herpesvirus 1 may be transmitted through semen.
T
Seropositive cattle cannot be carriers of the Infections Rhinotracheitis virus
F
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) can be transmitted through vectors.
F
Bovine herpesvirus l may cause encephalitis in calves.
T
Only inactivated vaccines are available against Bovine herpesvirus l.
F
The IBR virus causes nephritis in calves usually in the age between one and six months.
F
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) cause serous nasal discharge.
F
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis in 6-month-old calves usually causes pneumonia.
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis in cattle 6 months of age can cause encephalitis.
F ( <5 months old)
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis often cause genital lesions with vesicles.
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis may cause inflammation of conjunctiva
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis cause purulent discharge.
T
In Hungary the gE-negative marker vaccine is to be used in the control of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis.
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis is rapidly spread within the herd.
F
Slow spread
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis is no longer present in Hungary.
F
The respiratory form of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis is often followed by genital symptoms.
F
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis spreads slowly within a herd.
T
We can see characteristic clinical signs of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis in day-old calves
F
We are doing Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis virus eradication programs in Hungary
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis virus mainly cause encephalitis in cattle older than 6 months.
F ( <5 months)
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis mainly causes pneumonia in 1-6 months old calves.
T
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis is rare, BHV-1 only affects cattle.
F
In the transmission IBRV, the most important route is the germinative route
F
Genital form of IBR is often followed by abortion
F
IBR can occur in several clinical forms.
T
\IBR is a frequent infection, cattle and its closest relatives are affected
T
Bovine Herpes virus 2 frequently causes abortion
F
Bovine herpes mamillitis virus can cause mastitis in cows
T
Bovine herpes mamillitis virus may cause lesions on the muzzle of suckling calves
T
The bovine herpes mamillitis virus causes lesions on the skin of the milkers, therefore it is a zoonotic agent.
F
Bovine herpesvirus 2 may cause generalised skin lesions
T
Bovine herpesvirus 2 is the most frequent primary cause of mastitis in cattle
F
Bovine Herpes Mammillitis virus causes milkers’ nodules in humans.
F
Bovine Herpes Mammillitis virus may cause lesions on the lips of milking calves.
T
Regarding Bovine Herpes Mammillitis, mainly heifers show clinical signs
T
Swine inclusion body rhinitis virus is causing mainly subclinical infection.
T
Bloody nasal discharge can be a sign of swine inclusion body rhinitis
