F 0-2w
Fowl paratyphoid is a septicaemic disease in chicken
T
young chicken:
- septicaemia, like fowl typhoid
- duck, geese: purulent conjunctivitis, weak legs, incoordination
Salmonella gallinarum is the causative agent of fowl paratyphoid

- S. Virchow
Fowl paratyphoid cannot be seen in the European poultry flocks anymore
F
Germinative infection happens in the case of fowl paratyphoid
T
Lesions of fowl paratyphoid occur only in the intestinal tract
F
parenchymal organs, gut
Salmonella Enteritidis can cause fowl paratyphoid
T
- S. Enteritidis
- S. Typhimurium,
- S. Hadar
- S. Anatum
- S. Infantis

Fowl paratyphoid occurs typically in 2-5 months old poultry
F
Week 0-2. (4.)
Germinative infection does not occur in the case of fowl paratyphoid
F
There are no vaccines to prevent fowl paratyphoid
F
vaccines
- S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium,
- live and inactivated vaccines
Salmonella derby is a frequent agent of fowl paratyphoid.
F

- S. Virchow
Clinical signs of fowl paratyphoid are mainly seen in adult birds
F
mainly young-0-2w
Germinative infection does not occur in the case of fowl paratyphoid.
F
Clinical signs of fowl paratyphoid can be successfully stopped with antibiotics
T
Treatment:
- antibiotics (fluoroquinolon)
- bacterium carriage
- elimination of predisposing factors
The agent of fowl paratyphoid are facultative pathogenic bacteria
T
The clinical signs of fowl paratyphoid are mainly seen in birds below 4 weeks of age.
T
Week 0-2. (4.)
Antibiotic treatment can prevent the carriage of salmonella, after fowl paratyphoid
F
Paratyphoid of poultry can be spread in a germinative way
T
Paratyphoid of poultry only affects the intestines
F
Paratyphoid of poultry affects adult animals mainly.
F
young
The clinical signs of fowl paratyphoid can be seen mainly in adult hens
F
Fowl paratyphoid is a generalized disease with septicaemia.
T
Isolation of the agent of fowl paratyphoid from the parenchymal organs results in aetiological diagnosis
T
Fowl paratyphoid is a rare and sporadic disease
F
worldwide, frequent
Fowl paratyphoid mostly occurs in 0-2 weeks old chickens
T
Week 0-2. (4.)
Fowl paratyphoid infection occurs by PO or germinative routes.
T
Purulent conjunctivitis can occur as a clinical sign in ducks with fowl paratyphoid.
T
young chicken:
- septicaemia, like fowl typhoid
- duck, geese:purulent conjunctivitis
- weak legs, incoordination
Fluoroquinolones can be used to treat fowl paratyphoid.
T
Treatment:
- antibiotics (fluoroquinolon)
- bacterium carriage
- elimination of predisposing factors
Fowl paratyphoid can be spread by rodents
T
Fowl paratyphoid can occur alone only in the first 2 weeks of life
T
Live and attenuated vaccines can be used to prevent fowl paratyphoid
T
vaccines:
- S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium,
- live and inactivated vaccines
Fowl paratyphoid usually causes generalized disease.
T
Fowl paratyphoid causes disease mainly in water fowl
F-A- I’m going with T
noteswould suggest T
(Kyra)
We can certify “Salmonella-free” status of poultry stocks with serological test
F
Fowl paratyphoid causes high morbidity mostly in water birds
T-A
waterfowl more susceptible
