<FlashCard questions="8">
|q1= What disease is caused by ''R. salmononinarum''?
|a1= Bacterial Kidney Disease of salmonid fish
|l1= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Introduction
|q2= What disease causes similar pathology in mammals?
|a2= Tuberculosis/Mycobacteriosis
|l2= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Introduction
|q3= Where does the bacteria reside?
|a3= Intracellularly – inside the cells of the kidney and other organs.
|l3= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Signalment
|q4= What is the common clinical presentation?
|a4=
*Many fish no or very few/subtle external signs
*Lethargy
*Pale gills
*Exopthalmos
*Haemorrhagic lesions
*Cystic cavities in the muscles
|l4= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Clinical Signs
|q5= What are the two methods by which the bacteria can be directly visualised and which is preferable?
|a5=
*Microscopic analysis of tissue samples with periodic-Schiff stain
*FAT
FAT is more sensitive and therefore can detect low levels so is preferred.
|l5= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Diagnosis
|q6= What are the two tests used for large scale diagnostic surveys?
|a6=
*Dot-Blot
*ELISA
ELISA is preferred as it is precise, sensitive and quantitative, but quality of antisera must be monitored.
|l6= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Diagnosis
|q7= How can water be tested for the organism?
|a7=
*FAT
*Culture
|l7= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Diagnosis
|q8= How is the vaccination for ''R. salmoninarum'' given?
|a8= By intraperitoneal injection
|l8= Renibacterium salmoninarum#Control
