17
Q

List the following viruses in order of least to most sensitive to disinfectants
herpes, parvo, rotavirus

A

parvo, rotavirus, herpes
-hydrophilic non enveloped are least, partially lipophilic non enveloped more sensitive, enveloped-retro, herpes, paramyxo- most sensitive

18
Q

T or F

Quaternary ammonia is a denaturant

A

T
acts by disrupting protein and lipid structures (alcohols and phenols are also denaturants, best choice against lipophilic enveloped viruses

19
Q

Name 2 types of disinfectants that are considered reactants

A

aldehyde, and ethylene oxide

-form and break covalent bonds altering DNA, RNA and protein synthesis

20
Q

Halogens such as hypochlorites, chlorine dioxide and iodine, and peroxides are considered what type of disinfectant

A

Oxidant

oxidize proteins, enzymes and amino acids

21
Q

T or F

Q

What are cyanoacrylates typically used for in veterinary medicine?

tissue adhesives,
initially used in 1949
liquid monomers

23
Q

T or F

Short-chain cyanoacrylates(SCCA) are available only as non-pharmaceutical grade products

A

T
they were determined to be toxic, and re-formualted to Long-chain (LCCA). Some PI still like SCCA better so justification and approval must be given to use them in live animals (USDA policy 3). This study showed that SCCA limit bone regeneration

24
Q
