Infections majorly arise due to the invasion and proliferation of microorganisms, typically bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans. Infections not only affect animal health but also transmit the causative agents to mankind. Such diseases which can be transmitted from animals to humans are known as zoonotic diseases. These infections arise mainly due to poor sanitation and invasion of infected animals in the breed. Poor attention to infection control can result in the death of animals. Control measures such as good diet, good animal practice and hygienic environment can help in the prevention and control of infections. Diagnostic methods encompass biochemical and behavioral tests. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of veterinary science. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the research on veterinary infection causes, diagnosis and control. For all those who are interested in veterinary science and medicine, this book can prove to be an essential guide.
