    Study Notes

    Inflammatory Cells

    • Primarily responsible for migrating to injured tissues to combat injury, destroy harmful agents, and aid healing.
    • Consists of white blood cells.

    Intermediate Hosts

    • Serve as a biological carrier for disease agents, particularly during their asexual or larval stages.

    Live Vaccines

    • Composed of live organisms that multiply within the body.
    • Provoke an immune response.

    Paratenic Hosts

    • Carry the infective stage of a parasite but do not allow further development.
    • Transmit the infection without further development.

    Intravenous Administration

    • Introduces solutions or drugs directly into the bloodstream through the veins.

    Necrotic Tissues

    • Refer to dead tissues.
    • Cell death occurs due to injury or disease.

    Cell Membrane Permeability

    • Refers to the ability of substances to penetrate cell membranes.

    Poultices

    • Soft masses applied to inflamed areas to provide warmth and relieve pain.

    Parasite Impact on Hosts

    • Negatively impact hosts by absorbing a portion of digested nutrients.
    • This causes decreased productivity in the host animal.

    Parasitic Loads in Rural Philippines

    • High parasitic loads are common in rural areas of the Philippines due to improper housing and grazing management.

    Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Goats (Philippines)

    • Multiple species of GI nematodes are typically present in goats due to their diverse access to worm species.

    Hookworms

    • Suck blood or lymph from their host's intestines, negatively impacting their health.

    Tropical Cattle Tick

    • Transmits diseases like Anaplasmosis.
    • Known as Boophilus microplus.
