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.
