Admission to unit : All students. Obligatory part of study programme.
Lectures will be given for all students together and practical lessons will be done for small
groups
Brief characterization of the subject:
In the special part students obtain knowledge about beneficial and harmful microorganisms
within special bacteriology and special virology. This includes systematic classification of the
respective species; definition (saprophytes, mutualists, potential pathogens and true
pathogens), morphological and physiological properties, cultivation requirements and
biochemical and antigenic properties. An important part of the subject is the study of
pathogenicity factors on the molecular level. Classification and characterisation of important
viral pathogens.
Immunology. The animal body excludes invaders that may cause disease or reduce its ability
to survive. The protection of the body comes from a complex system of overlapping and
interlinked defense mechanisms that together can destroy or control almost all invaders
(physical barriers, innate immunity, and specific immunity). Parasitology.

Animal Hygiene, welfare and behavior of animals
Credits : 5
Course coordinator: Prof. Ing. Oľga Ondrašovičová,PhD.
groups.
Course objectives: The students shall study the ways and systems of animal housing and to
evaluate the situation and suggest corrective actions related to handling, and sanitary and
management procedures on the farms. The animal production has to pay increased attention
to animal health and welfare, behaviour and protection of the environment.
Characterization of the subject:
Animal hygiene is a branch of interdisciplinary sciences joining elements of animal
science and veterinary science. This aspect is especially important in teaching students of
veterinary medicine to deal with environmental and clinical problems. Animal hygiene is an
important part of veterinary curriculum. The students learn to evaluate the situation and
suggest corrective actions related to handling, and sanitary and management procedures on
the farms. The knowledge of animal hygiene helps them to understand the basic principles of
adaptation and stress during housing. They also study the effect of animal housing systems
and technology lines used (feeding, drinking, removal of excrements) on maintenance,
reproductive and productive processes of the animals.
Field practice: visiting different farms and prepoaration of Animal welfare and behaviour
