Part C. The Etiologic Agent

Type your group member names:

The lab tests didn’t show any abnormal bacterial results. So, the lab sent the samples to another lab that had more resources and testing capabilities.  The second lab confirmed that the etiologic agent responsible for the signs and symptoms was an Adenovirus.

1.      How is the presence of a virus (like Adenovirus) tested for in a lab?

 

2.      Describe the structure of Adenovirus. (You may include a picture to supplement your description.)

 

3.      Describe the reproductive cycle of Adenovirus. In your description be sure to include the following:

o The reservoir(s), primary host(s), and intermediate host(s) of Adenovirus.

o Whether Adenovirus can become latent.

o How Adenovirus is transmitted. Its portal of entry and its portal of exit.

o The tissues that Adenovirus can penetrate.

o The molecular or cellular mechanisms that lead to the signs and symptoms.

 

4.      Describe at least 3 recommendations to reduce the transmission of Adenovirus in the situation described in Part A?

 

5.      Assume your recommendations (that you listed in question 4) were followed. How will you evaluate their effectiveness, i.e., how will you know that your recommendations are working?

 

6.      List the references you used for this case study:
