Microbio Dental Decks 2013-2014 Flashcards
formalin treated inactivated viruses that given IV
Salk vaccine
live attenuated administered orally
Sabin Vaccine
largest & most complex DNA virus
Poxvirus
Group A Virus
Herpangina & Hand-foot & mouth disease
appear on the throat, palate or tongue
Herpangina
appear on the buccal mucosa & gingiva
Hand-foot & mouth disease
Main cause of common cold
Rhinoviruses
mixture of 3 live attenuated viruses, administered via injection for immnization against
Measles, mumps & Rubella
1st step in viral gene expression
mRNA synthesis
highly effective immunizing agent that enabled the global eradication of smallpox
VACCINIA VACCINE
surface glycoprotein , aids attachment of the virus to the cell wall of susceptible host cells at specific receptor sites
Hemagglutinin (H)
facilitates cell penetration, probably by pinocytosis, & release of replicated viruses from the cell surface effected by budding through the cell membrane
Neuraminidase
Major changes of reassortment of genome pieces
Antigenic shifts
minor changes based on point mutations
Antigenic drifts
caused by an RNA paramyxovirus & transmitted via respiratory droplets
Mumps
caused by influenza viruses A, B & C
Influenza
act to prevent viral replication & are only effective against influenza A
Amantadine & Rimantadine
Steps in the replicative Cycle of Viruses * AEURAR*
- Attachment
- Entry
- Uncoating
- Replication & Viral Protein Production
- Assembly
- Release
ONLY RNA viruses that are double-stranded
Reoviruses
Most common cause of infectious diarrhea in infants & young children
ROTAVIRUSES
Most prominent & characteristic symptom of rubella infection
LYMPHADENOPATHY
Coagulase +
Staphylococcus Aureus
Coagulase -
