Study Notes
Viral Escape Mechanisms
- Animal viruses escape host cells through lysis or budding.
- Budding results in enveloped viruses.
Motility Determination
- Stabbing bacteria into semisolid agar is a precise method for differentiating motile and non-motile types.
HIV Control Challenges
- Attempts to control HIV have been unsuccessful due to its high mutation rate.
Rabies Diagnosis
- Cytoplasmic inclusion bodies in nerve cells, known as Negri bodies, are diagnostic markers for rabies.
Epstein-Barr Virus
- Epstein-Barr virus causes infectious mononucleosis, Burkitt's lymphoma, Nasopharyngeal carcinoma and Hodgkin's disease.
Human Papillomaviruses (HPV)
- Untreated HPV infections can lead to cervical cancer in females and other genital tract cancers.
