MT4 - PASTEURELLA - General Flashcards
Asymptomatic carriage of Pasteurella multocida can occur in birds
T
Pasteurella multocida is highly resistant; it can survive in the environment for several months
F
Pasteurella multocida can cause pasteurellosis in small ruminants
T
Pasteurella multocida can infect humans:
T
Primary pasteurellosis disease have no predisposing factors
F
Non-infectious:
* management, transportation, stress, overcrowding * „primary pasteurellosis”
infectious:
* viruses, mycoplasmas, other bacteria * „secondary pasteurellosis”
Pasteurella multocida can complicate canine distemper.
T
Leukotoxin (cytotoxin) production is an important virulence factor of Mannheimia haemolytica
T
leukotoxin (cytotoxin)
outer membrane proteins
capsule polysaccharide
The dermonecrotoxin of Pasteurella multocida damages the osteoclast cells:
F
osteoblast
Primary pasteurellosis diseases are caused by obligate pathogenic Pasteurella bacteria:
F
facultative pathogenic bacteria
Dermonecrotoxin can be virulence factor of Pasteurella multocida:
T
- capsule
- LPS (endotoxin)
- dermonecrotoxin
- hyaluronidase production (B)
- outer membrane proteins, adhesins, fimbria
Dermonecrotoxin of pasteurella multocida causes lesions in the nasal cavity and on the skin of pigs
F
Capsule can be virulence factor of Pasteurella multocida:
T
- capsule
- LPS (endotoxin)
- dermonecrotoxin
- hyaluronidase production (B)
- outer membrane proteins, adhesins, fimbria
Asymptomatic carriage of Pasteurella multocida can occur in bird
T
Enterotoxins are virulence factors of Pasteurella multocida
F
- LPS (endotoxin)
The agent of acute systemic pasteurellosis is zoonotic:
