25
they are usually required enriched media for cultivation
actinomycetales
26
arcanobacterium pyogenes is changed to
trueperella pyogenes
27
actinomyces suis is changed to
actinobaculum suis
28
major characteristics in the classification of bacteria
morphological chemical component cultural antigenic genetics pathogenicity metabolic/biochemical ecological
29
ultimate tool for identification of bacteria
genetic make up
30
majority of these are facultative anaerobes and grows on non-enriched memdia
staphylococcus
31
colonies of these is growing onblood agar, and they are non-motile, catalase positive and do not form spores
staphylococcus
32
diagnosis of strangles
specimen colonial appearance direct microscopu
33
what distinguishes the group A streptococci from other hemolytic streptococci
its susceptibility to a 0.04 unit disc of bacitracin
34
what is the lancefield grouping and type of hemolysis of strepto suis
D and alpha
35
consequences of infection of strepto suis
septicemia, meningitis, arthritis
36
usual habitat of strepto susi
tonsils and nasal cavity
37
strepto agalactiae consequences of action and usual habitat
chronic mastitis in cattle, sheep and in milk ducts
38
strepto agalactiae lancefield and hemolysis
B beta
39
atmospheric growth requirements of actinomyces and its usual habitat and site of lesions
facultative anaerobic, capnophile, anaerobic and in nasopharyngeal and oral mucosae
40
atmospheric growth requirements of actinobacterium and its usual habitat and site of lesions
facultative anaeroboc and capnophilic, in nasopharyngeal mucosa of cattle, sheep and pigs
41
atmospheric growth requirements of actinobaculum and its usual habitat and site of lesions
anaerobic in prepuce and preputial diverticulum of boars
42
atmospheric growth requirements of dermatophilus and its usual habitat and site of lesions
aerobic and capnophilic in skin of carrier animals, scabs from lesions
42
atmospheric growth requirements of nocardia species and its usual habitat and site of lesions
aerobic, soil
43
what causes abscessation, mastitis, suppurative pneumonia, endometritis, pyometra, arthritis, and umbilical infections in cattle, sheep and pigs
arcanobacterium pyogenes
44
agent that causes arthritis, pleuritis, cutaeneous and visceral abscessation, peritonitis in dogs
actinomyces hordeovulneris
45
virulence factor of actinomyces pyogenes
exotoxin that lyse RBCs, proteases
46
virulence factor of actinomyces viscosus
surface fibril that may serve as adhesins for host cells or other bacteria (coaggregation)
47
it causes clinical syndromes in dogs indistinguishable from that initiated by nocardia
a. viscosus
48
2 syndromes initiated by nocardia asteroides and a. viscosus
1. localized granulomatous lesions involving the skin and subcutis 2. pyothorax with granulomas
49
specimens of genus actinocetales
specimens like pus, exudates, aspirates, tissue and scrapings from wall of abscess and sections of granulomas in 10% formalin for histopath
50
have a characteristic of a molar tooth colonies and Gram pos filamentous microscopic morphology
actinomyces spp
51
invasion of the mandible, less commonly in maxilla, causes chronic osteomyelitis referred to as
lumpy jaw
52
trauma to mucosa from rough feed or through dental alveoli during tooth eruption
lumpy jaw
53
majority of these are facultative anerobes and grow on non-enriched media, non motile and catalase positive. they do not form spores and are stable in environment
staphylococcus
54
this shields staphylococci form phagocytic cells
fibrin deposition
55
what virulent factor ables staphylococci to convert fibrinogen to fibrin
coagulase
56
enzymes which contribute to virulence in staphylo
lipase, esterases, elastase, staphylokinase
57
surface component which binds Fc portion of IgG and inhibits opsonization
protein a
58
cytolytic destruction of phagocytes of some animal species
