Term
Flaviridae Characteristics
Definition
enveloped, ssRNA, positive sense
labile, short incubation
E protein-surface glycoprotein with hemagglutination activity, neutralizing target
Pesitvirus, Falvivirus, Hepacivirus
Term
Flaviridae Entry, Replication, Release
Definition
receptor mediated endocytosis
replication in cytoplasm
gets envelope in RER
exocytosis by cytoplasmic vesicles and then cytolysis
Term
Flaviridae Transmission
Definition
biological vectors
Term
Flaviridae Tropism
Definition
pestivirus-lymphoid tissue and epithelium
flavivirus-neurons
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Characteristics
Definition
type 1 - classic BVDV
type 2- atypical (virulent for all ages)
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Signs
Definition
type 2-hemorrhagic syndrome, anorexia, respiratory disease, diarrhea, death in 2 days

virus induced immunosuppression
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Biotypes
Definition
for type 1
noncytopathic- most common, establishes persistent infection
cytopathic- acute infections, mutant of ncp or exogenous
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Tropism
Definition
lymphoid tissue
mucosal epithelium
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Transmission
Definition
orofecal route
repiratory
urine and semen
transplacental
swine, sheep, goats, deer are reservoirs
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Enteric Disease
Definition
acute BVDV infection of immunocompetent animals
mild enteric disease
virus-induced immunosuppression
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus In utero
Definition
death of calf or peristent infection
cypathic biotype before 150days gestation = abortion
noncytopathic biotype before 150 days gestation = immune tolerance and PI calf or congenital malformations
noncytopathic biotype after 150 days gestation = normal calf
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Diagnosis
Definition
PI animal is sero-negative
life-long shedding of virus
Term
Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Control
Definition
cull PI animals
keep only seropositive animals
MLV vaccine
booster with killed product
animals will shed MLV vaccine virus

acute febrile hemorrhagic disease
subacute or chronic wasting with hemorrhages and reproductive problems
Term
Classic Swine Fever Virus Transmission
Definition
in utero
fetus is immunologically tolerant resulting in PI or death
virus sheds in all secretions/excretions
garbage feeding
Term
Classic Swine Fever Virus Control
Definition
slaughter
quarantine
Term
West Nile Virus Characteristics

enzootic in USA since 2003
zoonotic
equids are dead end hosts
Term
