Inflammation of the lung parenchyma that is associated with BRONCHITIS, usually involving lobular areas from TERMINAL BRONCHIOLES to the PULMONARY ALVEOLI. The affected areas become filled with exudate that forms consolidated patches.
A species of gram-negative bacteria causing MASTITIS; ARTHRITIS; and RESPIRATORY TRACT DISEASES in CATTLE.
The study of the structure of various TISSUES of organisms on a microscopic level.
Either of the pair of organs occupying the cavity of the thorax that effect the aeration of the blood.
A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria normally commensal in the flora of CATTLE and SHEEP. But under conditions of physical or PHYSIOLOGICAL STRESS, it can cause MASTITIS in sheep and SHIPPING FEVER or ENZOOTIC CALF PNEUMONIA in cattle. Its former name was Pasteurella haemolytica.
A mammalian fetus expelled by INDUCED ABORTION or SPONTANEOUS ABORTION.
A species of sheep, Ovis canadensis, characterized by massive brown horns. There are at least four subspecies and they are all endangered or threatened.
Bovine respiratory disease found in animals that have been shipped or exposed to CATTLE recently transported. The major agent responsible for the disease is MANNHEIMIA HAEMOLYTICA and less commonly, PASTEURELLA MULTOCIDA or HAEMOPHILUS SOMNUS. All three agents are normal inhabitants of the bovine nasal pharyngeal mucosa but not the LUNG. They are considered opportunistic pathogens following STRESS, PHYSIOLOGICAL and/or a viral infection. The resulting bacterial fibrinous BRONCHOPNEUMONIA is often fatal.
A species of RHODOCOCCUS found in soil, herbivore dung, and in the intestinal tract of cows, horses, sheep, and pigs. It causes bronchopneumonia in foals and can be responsible for infection in humans compromised by immunosuppressive drug therapy, lymphoma, or AIDS.
Diseases of domestic cattle of the genus Bos. It includes diseases of cows, yaks, and zebus.
Postmortem examination of the body.
Death resulting from the presence of a disease in an individual, as shown by a single case report or a limited number of patients. This should be differentiated from DEATH, the physiological cessation of life and from MORTALITY, an epidemiological or statistical concept.
Diseases of domestic and wild horses of the species Equus caballus.
Coccus-shaped bacteria that retain the crystal violet stain when treated by Gram's method.
Infections with bacteria of the genus PASTEURELLA.
The abrupt cessation of all vital bodily functions, manifested by the permanent loss of total cerebral, respiratory, and cardiovascular functions.
Refers to the whole process of grieving and mourning and is associated with a deep sense of loss and sadness.
Physicians appointed to investigate all cases of sudden or violent death.
The application of pathology to questions of law.
Factors which produce cessation of all vital bodily functions. They can be analyzed from an epidemiologic viewpoint.
The terms, expressions, designations, or symbols used in a particular science, discipline, or specialized subject area.
