Pasteurellosis 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
They have but they are usually non infectious
Pasteurella multocida can complicate canine distemper
T
Leukotoxin (cytotoxin) production is an important virulence factor of Mannheimia haemolytica
T
The dermonecrotoxin of Pasteurella multocida damages the osteoclast cells
F
The osteoblasts there is decreased production.
Primary pasteurellosis diseases are caused by obligate pathogenic Pasteurella bacteria
F
Dermonecrotoxin can be virulence factor of Pasteurella multocida
T
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
Enterotoxins are virulence factors of Pasteurella multocida
F
Mannheimia haemolytica leukotoxin (cytotoxin) damages the macrophages
T
Transportation is a predisposing factor of respiratory pasteurellosis of calves
T
Primary pasteurellosis diseases have non infectious predisposing factors
T
Emboli are responsible for the necrosis seen in the case of acute systemic pasteurellosis
T
Leukotoxin is a virulence factor of Mannheimia haemolytica
T
Leukotoxin is produced by the majority of Pasteurella multocida
F
Pasteurella multocida can cause disease only in ruminants
F
Mannheimia haemolytica can cause disease mainly in ruminants
T
Bibersteinia trehalosi can infect ruminants
T
Pasteurellaceae are resistant bacteria, they remain viable for a long time in the soil
F
The virulence factors of P. multocida are the capsule and dermonecrotoxin
