• LPS Haigused. • Läkaköhal kolm staadiumi: katarraalne, paroksüsmaalne, konvalestsentne. Haigus on raskeim mittevaktsineeritutel. Pärast 7-10 päevast inkubatsiooniperioodi algab külmetusele sarnanev katarraalne staadium (nohu, väsimus, aevastamine, väsimus, anoreksia, palavik), areneb edasi paroksüsmaalne staadium (korduvad köhahood, millele järgneb inspiratsioonil läkastus? (whoops), oksendamine, leukotsütoos), konvalestsentsistaadiumis vähenevad paroksüsmid, sekundaarsed komplikatsioonid (pneumoonia, krambid, entsefalopaatia). • B. parapertussis põhjustab haiguse pehmemat vormi, 10…20% juhtudest. • B. bronchiseptica põhjustab peamiselt respiratoorseid haigusi loomadel, võib põhjustada inimestel bronhopneumooniat Diagnostika. Mikroskoopia on mittespetsiifiline, mittetundlik. Kultuur on spetsiifiline, aga väikse tundlikkusega. Nukleiinhapetel

He looked down, and then glanced up at me through his long black lashes, his ocher eyes scorching. "Please?" he breathed, leaning toward me. I blinked, my mind going blank. Holy crow, how did he do that? "Er, what?" I asked, dazed. "Please tell me just one little theory
