- Bordetella pertussis is a kind of bacteria. It is a gram-negative organism and has a morphology named coccobacillus.It is an aerobic organism, meaning that it has to be in an oxygenated atmosphere in order to survive.he disease has to live in a warmer temperature, like that of the human body. Pertussis is an infection of the respiratory system. It was called the whooping cough since victims of the disease make a whooping sound when breathing.

Disease Specifics Pertussis is an acute infectious disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis. In the 20 th century, pertussis was one of the most common childhood diseases and a major cause of childhood mortality in the United States.ertussis is primarily a toxin-mediated disease. The bacteria attach to the cilia of the respiratory epithelial cells, produce toxins that paralyze the cilia, and cause inflammation of the respiratory tract, which interferes with the clearing of pulmonary secretions.

What is Coccus? The word “coccus” has a couple of different meanings in biology, but it most commonly refers to a type of bacteria that is spherical or slightly oval in shape. In this application, the plural term used to describe entire bacterial chains or infections is cocci, whereas a single coccus bacterium is called a monococcus.occus bacteria cause a number of common infections, including strep throat. Cocci are usually shaped like flat, elongated ovals. Many species of Neisseria are found in healthy human throats, but the bacteria that cause meningitis also belong to this genus.

Pertussis Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is an acute infection of the respiratory tract caused by Bordetella pertussis bacteria. Only humans can be affected by this disease. Transmission occurs through direct contact with respiratory droplets spread during coughs and sneezes from an infected person.

Coccidiosis in more common in young birds and not old birds because older birds are usually immune due to prior infection.Broilers and layers are more commonly infected.ifferent kinds of birds are even infected by a different kind of coccidia. Coccidiosis (pronounced cock-sid-ee-oh-sis) in chickens is caused by nine species of Eimeria protozoa, some are more serious than others.

Coccidiosis Coccidiosis is a parasitic disease of the intestinal tract of animals caused by coccidian protozoa. The disease spreads from one animal to another by contact with infected feces or ingestion of infected tissue. Diarrhea, which may become bloody in severe cases, is the primary symptom. Most animals infected with coccidia are asymptomatic, but young or immunocompromised animals may suffer severe symptoms and death.

- What is Valley Fever? Valley Fever (coccidioidomycosis, or cocci) is caused by the soil-dwelling fungus, Coccidioides immitis. The tiny seeds, or spores, become wind-borne and are inhaled into the lungs, where the infection starts. When soils containing the fungus are disturbed and dust is raised, spores may be inhaled with the dust.

Coccidiosis in Goats Young animals are most affected by coccidiosis, and somewhere around 3 to 4 months of age is prime time for infection. Stress from management, or environment can trigger an outbreak. Weaning, overstocking, travel, and adverse weather are stresses that can cause problems for producers.

Coccidiosis Puppies are frequently infected with coccidia from the feces of their mother, and are more likely to develop coccidiosis due to their undeveloped immune systems. Stress can trigger symptoms in susceptible animals. Symptoms in young dogs include diarrhea with mucus and blood, poor appetite, vomiting, and dehydration.
