Course/Module aims:
Knowledge of related bacteria and fungi that cause infections in animals from mammals in terms of their classification, their environment, violence and pathogenesis mechanisms. Epidemiology, clinic, treatment and laboratory tests will be brief reference.
Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
To recognize pathogenic fungi and bacteria in animals
Describe violence mechanisms of bacteria
Recognize defense mechanisms of the hosts
Attendance requirements(%):
100
Teaching arrangement and method of instruction:
lecture
Course/Module Content:
1.parasite-host relationship
a. Violent bacteria mechanisms : properties that allow them to fulfill their potential to cause disease.
b.Non-specific defense mechanisms of hosts who are responsible for preventing morbidity or dealing with it, if prevention fails.
c.Risk factors and their impact on the defense mechanisms of hosts
2.Bacterial pathogens of veterinary importance:
a. Review of varius bacteria
b.All bacteria or group of bacteria will be reviewed at various aspects, but the emphasis will be on the pathogenesis, pathology, epidemiology and public health and less on laboratory and treatment.
c.The course will focus on Bacterial Pathogens of mammals.
