Definition
present at birth
relatively non-specific
natural barriers of animal (ex. skin)
mucous membrane
cellular actions
antibody production |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| specific immunity against a foreign agent |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
the animal has gotten a specific immunity against an agent for a specific infection
Natural-naturally actually infected
Artificial-vaccines/shots |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| actually produce antibodies |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| do not produce antibodies, but are turn on for B-cells |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| monocytes - kick started by T-cells |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
not making it ourselves
given to animal somehow
ex. mare's milk |
|

Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| injections of hyper-immune serum |
|
|
Term
| DEFENSIVE MECHANISMS: PRIMARY |
|
Definition
skin & mucous membranes
body secretions on the skin (ex. sweat)
pH of secretions help prevent MOs
respiratory secretions & functions
lymphatic system
tissue fluids
inflammation
fever |
|
|
Term
| DEFENSE MECHANISMS: SECONDARY |
|
Definition
phagocytosis: ingesting and destroying foreign particles
WBC: granulocytes, monocytes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
inflammation: mobilization of WBC due to chemical release
ingestion of bacteria
destroying of bacteria |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
neutrophils: 1st response attract other cells
eosinophils: very attracted to histamine, allergic reaction
monocytes: really big killer cells |
|
|
Term
| DEFENSE MECHANISMS: TERTIARY |
|
Definition
B lymphocytes: produce antibodies
T lymphocytes: turn on reaction, activate B cells and other phagocytic cells |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| clotting, inflammatory proteins |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| plasma-clotting factors, organ secretion, minerals, enzymes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| leukocytes: comes from bone marrow |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
killer cells
bacterial infections
"segs" mature
"bands" immature |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
allergies
hypersensitivity
inflammatory |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
histamine
allergic reaction, injury sites, GI tract, skin and lungs |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
(S)CID foals do not have these "smart bombs"
B-cells/t-cells can live for weeks/years |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
largest cells
last to show up
a lot present during long term illness
"killer cells" |
|
|
Term
| COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) |
|
Definition
red blood cells(RBC)- 7-12 million/cc
packed cell volume(PCV)- cells (34-50%) vs plasma(remaining)
Hemoglobing- 11-19g/100 ml of blood
white blood cells (WBC)- 8,000-11,000 cells/cc |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
produced by B-cells-immunoglobulins
IgG-70% of all antibodies
IgM-10% of all antibodies, 1st Ig produced in an immune response then IgGs take over
IgA-15-20% of serum antibodies
IgD-less than 1% of antibodies, in membranes of lymphocytes to help differentiation
IgE- less than 1% of antibodies, functions in immune response to parasites, on surface of basophils
IgE- functions in immune response to parasites |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| adjuvant: help preserve the vaccine along w/ refrigeration, carrying solution, modified organism is weaker, trigger response in animal to make antibodies |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| organism is dead but response to it will still create antibodies against organisms |
|
