Tetanus , Botulism ✅ Flashcards
Flaccid paralysis is a frequent clinical sign of tetanus
F
The agent of tetanus is strictly anaerobic
T
The agent of tetanus can enter the host through wounds
T
Tetanus is only seen in horse
F
Over-eating can predispose animals to Tetanus.
F
The agent of Tetanus needs oxygen to replicate
F
Anatoxin vaccines are available for the prevention of tetanus
T
Haemorrhages under the serous membranes and enlargement of parenchymal organs are
typical postmortem lesions of tetanus
F
Spasms are typical clinical signs of tetanus
T
Tetanus is a zoonosis
F
Toxoid vaccines can be used for the prevention of tetanus
T
Dogs are resistant to tetanus
F
The clinical signs of tetanus are inducible
T
Tetanus toxin cleaves synaptobrevin
T
For tetanus we use vaccines which contain toxoid.
T
Tetanus cannot be prevented with vaccination.
F
Tetanus is caused by Clostridium tetani
T
The agent of tetanus causes septicaemia.
F
Tetanus can be diagnosed on the basis of post mortem lesions.
F
Clostridium tetani produced endotoxin
F
C. tetani needs anaerobic conditions for propagation.
T
Dogs are susceptible to tetanus.
T
Tetanus can be prevented with vaccines containing inactivated bacteria
T
Tetanus can cause spasms.
T
Horses are resistant to tetanus.
F
Tetanus can only develop after deep wounds
F
Wounds can predispose to tetanus.
T
The paralysis usually starts at the place of the wound.
T
Clostridium tetani toxin is produced in the feed.
F
Horses are most sensitive to tetanus.
T
Tetanus can be prevented by anatoxin vaccination.
T
Tetanus causes rigid paralysis.
T
There is no vaccine for tetanus
F
Dogs have high resistance to tetanus
T
Clostridium tetani produces neurotoxins
T
The toxin of clostridium botulinum causes flaccid paralysis
T
Clostridium botulinum generally causes wound infection.
F
Focal necrosis in the liver is a typical post mortem lesion of Botulism
F
The toxin of Clostridium botulinum has irreversible effect
T
Birds are resistant to botulism.
F
Necrotic foci in the liver are typical post mortem lesions of botulism.
F
Generally wounds predispose animals to botulism.
F
The agent of botulism generally produces toxin at the site of entry.
F
Botulism is diagnosed on the basis of the typical post mortem lesions.
F
Clostridium botulinum can produce toxins outside the hosts.
T
No characteristic post mortem lesions can be seen in the case of botulism.
T
Botulism doesn’t occur in Europe.
F
Clostridium botulinum cannot tolerate air at all
F?
Botulism usually develops following a wound infection
F
Clostridium botulinum propagates in rotten materials
T
In Hungary, botulism is seen most commonly in birds
T
Clostridium botulinum spores are extremely resistant to heat.
T
In Hungary, botulism occurs in winter and early spring.
F
) Botulism is eradicated in Europe.
F
Clostridium botulinum can produce toxin, some of which are activated by proteases
T
Botulism is seen mainly during summer
T
Spasms are the typical clinical sign of botulism
F
Paralysis is the main sign of botulism.
T
Toxins of botulism are produced generally in the food
T
Botulism happen generally through wound infection.
F
Animals are mostly sensitive to C and D types of Clostridium botulinum.
