| infectious necrotic hepatitis of sheep | A disease of sheep caused by the bacterium Clostridium novyi, which invades livers damaged by the fluke Fasciola hepatica and causes severe necrosis and death; this disease occurs in nearly all parts of the world, including the U.S. Sometimes called black disease because of the extensive haemorrhages seen on the inner surface of the pelt when it is removed. Synonym: black disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| infectious ophthalmia | A disease of cattle caused by the bacterium Moraxella bovis and characterised by blepharospasm, conjunctivitis, lacrimation, and corneal opacity and ulceration. Synonym: infectious ophthalmia, pinkeye. (05 Mar 2000) |

| infectious papilloma of cattle | Single or multiple rough nodules on the skin and mucous membranes caused by a papillomavirus; in young cattle, which are most susceptible, they are most numerous on the head, neck, and shoulders; in cows they usually affect the udder and teats.

| infectious papilloma virus | <virology> A disease caused by the human papilloma virus characterised by a soft wart-like growth on the genitalia (for example penis, vulva). In adults this infection is most commonly transmitted sexually. Genital warts are very common and are increasing in incidence. Safe sex practices, such as using condoms can help decrease the risk of infection. Treatment includes several topical agents to eradicate the lesions, cryosurgery, laser therapy, electrocauterisation or surgical removal. See: alternate name condyloma acuminata. Acronym: HPV (27 Sep 1997) |
| infectious period | <epidemiology> The time period during which infecteds are able to transmit an infection to any susceptible host or vector they contact. Note that the infectious period may not necessarily be associated with symptoms of the disease. (05 Dec 1998) |
| infectious peritonitis virus, feline | A species of coronavirus infecting cats of all ages and commonly found in catteries and zoos. Cats are often found carrying the virus but only a small proportion develop disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| infectious plasmid | Self-transmissible plasmid, a plasmid which encodes all the functions needed for its own intercellular transmission by conjugation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| infectious polyneuritis | <neurology, syndrome> Acute infective polyneuritis that results in a form of peripheral neuropathy with temporary loss of movement and sensation due to inflammation of multiple nerves and loss of myelin. The exact cause is unknown but has been associated with an abnormal immune response to viral infection, particularly cytomegalovirus infection, in which there is cell-mediated immunity to a component of myelin. The disease may be autoimmune in origin and complete recovery can take up to six months. Synonym: Guillain-Barre syndrome (12 Jul 2000) |
| infectious porcine encephalomyelitis | Porcine polioencephalomyelitis; a disease of swine caused by porcine enterovirus 1 and resembling human poliomyelitis; it is characterised by stiffness, convulsions, paralysis, and prostration, and is widespread in Europe, with most serious losses occurring in Poland and the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Synonym: infectious porcine encephalomyelitis, porcine polioencephalomyelitis. Origin: Teschen, Silisia (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious porcine encephalomyelitis virus | A picornavirus causing Teschen disease of pigs; the virus is normally a harmless inhabitant of the intestinal tract, but virulent strains cause epizootics of the disease. Synonym: infectious porcine encephalomyelitis virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious serositis | A contagious disease of young ducks and turkeys caused by the bacterium Pasteurella anatipestifer and characterised in ducks by ocular and nasal discharges, coughing and sneezing, and incoordination, and in turkeys by dyspnea, droopiness, lameness, and a twisted neck.

| infectious warts | A keratotic papilloma of the epidermis which occurs most frequently in young persons as a result of localised infection by human papilloma virus, usually types 2 and 4; the lesions are of variable duration, eventually undergoing spontaneous regression, and are both exophytic and endophytic, with hyperkeratosis, parakeratosis, hypergranulosis, koilocytosis, and papillomatosis. Synonym: common wart, infectious warts, verruca simplex, viral wart. (05 Mar 2000) |
