Diagnosis, Prevention and Treatment of Infectious Canine Hepatitis
Infectious canine hepatitis is an acute, highly contagious, septicemic infectious disease of dogs caused by canine adenovirus type I, characterized by circulatory disturbance, central necrosis of the hepatic lobules, and intranuclear inclusion bodies in the liver parenchyma and endothelial cells. Dogs and foxes are highly susceptible, and coyotes, raccoons and black bears are also susceptible. It can also infect humans, but does not cause clinical symptoms. The pathogen, canine infectious hepatitis virus, belongs to the family Adenoviridae and the genus Mastadenovirus, and has only one antigenic type. The virus is quite resistant; it can survive on contaminated objects for 10 days to 14 days, can survive at room temperature for 10 weeks to 16 weeks, and remains infectious after 30 minutes at 56°C, and is only killed after 3 minutes to 5 minutes at 60°C.
