Virology: DNA Viruses Herpes virus characteristics - correct answer -dsDNA -Isocahedral capsid -tegument -nuclear inclusions with kareomegaly -host specificity: rare zoonosis or anthroponosis, if it happens it's fatal -very ancient and diverse so many possible hosts -Latency: persistent for life -Recrudesce: under stress, lifelong shedding and may be reactivated with steroids Bovine Herpes Virus 1 : Type, Host, Transmission - correct answer Type: Alpha Herpes Host: Bovine Tr...

Mycology & Virology HarrAll of the following are examples of appropriate specimens for the recovery of fungi except: A. Tissue biopsy B. CSF C. Aspirate of exudate D. Swab - correct answer D Specimens for fungal culture must be kept in a moist, sterile environment. Swabs that are dried out or submitted with insufficient material on them should be rejected. Generally, swabs are inadequate for the recovery of fungi because they are easily contaminated by surrounding skin flora. 2. Fo...
