PQS - E.coli general Flashcards
Lack of colostrum is an important predisposing factor in diseases in young animals caused by
E. coli.
T
Certain verotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains can be zoonotic.
T
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains are responsible for oedema disease
F
Detection of virulence factors of E.Coli is important in the diagnostics diseases caused by E.coli.
T
E. coli can cause haemorrhagic enteritis of humans
T
faeces of asymptomatic cattle can be the source of infection with zoonotic Escherichia coli:
T
Per os antibiotics are recommended for the treatment of neonatal coli diarrhoea of calves
T
E. coli septicemia is caused by verotoxigenic strains
T
Fimbria can be virulence factors of E. coli strains
T
LT toxin can be virulence factor of some E. coli strains.
T
Enterotoxigenic E. coli strains cause diarrhoea in neonatal animals
T
The enterotoxigenic E. coli strains cause neonatal diarrhoea in calves and piglets
T
The enterotoxins of E. coli inhibit the protein synthesis.
F
The enterotoxigenic E. coli strains have fimbria as adhesins
T
The verotoxigenic E. coli strains cause septicaemia of calves.
F
Endotoxins are the virulence factors of E. coli causing septicaemia
T
Fimbria is the virulence factor of enterotoxic E. coli strains
T
Verotoxins are the virulence factors of enterotoxic E. coli strains.
F
Fimbria is the virulence factor of enteropathogenic E. coli strains.
F
Enteropathogenic E. coli strains mainly damage the villi
T
E. coli strains always cause generalized infections in animals.
F
Enterotoxins of E. coli cause severe inflammation in the small intestines
F
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strains cause neonatal diarrhoea in calves and piglets
F
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strains damage the microvilli.
