Viral intestinal disease. Asymptomatic form can lead to sever damage and secondary infections. Clinical form may cause vomiting and diarrhoea.
One of a group of viruses that have a halo or crown-like (corona) appearance when viewed under a microscope. These viruses are a common cause of mild to moderate upper-respiratory illness in humans and are associated with respiratory, gastrointestinal, liver and neurologic disease in animals.
A virus which can cause diarrhea (scours) and dehydration in young calves. Some "scours vaccines" given to pregnant females will contain coronavirus. Vaccination of the pregnant dam raises the level of antibodies to coronavirus in her colostrum, the first milk she produces which is suckled by the calf after it is born. Antibodies from colostrum provide the calf's immunity for the first few weeks and months of life.
a single-stranded RNA virus that can change rapidly, much like an influenza virus
A single-stranded RNA virus that resembles a crown when viewed under an electron microscope because of its petal-shaped projections. Of the more than 30 isolated strains of coronavirus, three or four infect humans and may cause respiratory diseases such as SARS and gastroenteritis. They are believed to cause a large percentage of all common cold cases in humans.
Intestinal parasite that causes painful abdomen and diarrhea in Great Danes. Great Danes usually contract this illness as puppies from contact with another dog's feces (perhaps even the mother). Most cases are mild and medication can treat the illness.
Disease characterized by vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration.
A virus so called because of the appearance of a crown (corona) or halo under a microscope. Associatied with gastrointestinal, respiratory, liver and neurological diseases in animals.
A genus of viruses that cause respiratory diseases and gastroenteritis.
Coronavirus is a genus of animal virus belonging to the family Coronaviridae. Coronaviruses are enveloped viruses with a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome and a helical symmetry. The genomic size of coronaviruses ranges from approximately 16 to 31 kilobases, extraordinarily large for an RNA virus.
