The transmission of anthrax disease

Transmission of anthrax disease - Anthrax is not commonly transmitted from one animal to another directly. Anthrax outbreaks are generally related to the neutral or calcareous soil is alkaline which became the germ incubator. In these areas, the spores grow into vegetative forms when the state of harmonious environment for its growth, is the availability of food, temperature and soil moisture, and can handle biological competition. If environmental conditions remain favorable, the bacteria will multiply and form more spores.

'Basil Anthrax' milling around in the net-animal tissue of patients, which is excreted through the secretion and excretion of approaching death.

When anthrax die, then dissection or ingested birds or animals of prey, then quickly formed and spores contaminating the surrounding soil. If this happens, it becomes difficult to destroy. This becomes even more difficult when it tesebar spores formed by wind, water, soil tillage, forage grass and so forth. In hot climate areas of blood-sucking flies among other types of 'Tabanus' can act as the transfer of disease.

Early anthrax shoots ranged 1-3 days, sometimes there are up to 14 days. Natural infection through (a) the digestive tract, (b) respiratory tract, and (c) the injured skin surface.

Anthrax Disease Treatment

Health - Because of anthrax in livestock is very contagious and often fatal, disease control is based on an initial treatment may be accompanied by ways of strict control.

For treatment of pain in animals given an injection of anti-serum with curative dose of 100 ¡| 150 ml for large animals and 50 ¡| 100 ml for small animals. Injections of homologous antiserum is IV or SC, while the heterologous SC, if necessary injection treatment may be repeated sufficiently. Earlier use of serum was held after the symptoms arise, are more likely to obtain good results. Sick or suspect animals are companion/bunch with sick animals were given injections of prevention with antisera (see V 2.). Passive immunity arose instantly, but lasts no longer than two weeks.

Provision of antisera for medicinal purposes can be combined with antibiotics. If antisera are not available, can be tried with these drugs below.

Early-stage anthrax in horses and cows can be treated with procain penicilin G dissolved in sterile distilled water with the dose for large animals: 6000 ¡| 20 000 IU/kg BW, IM, every day.

Streptomycin as much as 10 grams (for large animals weighing 400 ¡| 600 kg) per day given in two doses given intramuscularly is considered more effective than penicillin. Other antibiotics that can be used include: chloramphanicol, erythromycin, or sulfonamine (sulfamethazine, sulfanilamide, sulfapyridine, sulfathiazol), but the drugs are less potent than that of penicillin or tetracycline.

Vaccine Duo-Action Destroyer Anthrax Found

Reuters Health reported that a group of scientists from Boston managed to make a duo-action anthrax vaccine that simultaneously able to protect the body from the two attacks: the bacteria that cause anthrax (Bacillus anhtracis) and poison attacks generated by it.

As we know, the anthrax disease is caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of the bacillus anthracis and exit at the same poison. "The uniqueness of our vaccine is that it can attack the causes of the two components of the anthrax disease," said Dr.Julia A. Wang of Brigham and Women's Hospital. Meanwhile, continued Dr.Julia, vaccines that are currently only able to attack the venom that comes out.

A component called poly-gamma-D-glutamic acid, or PGA was helping the bacillus anthracis to multiply in our body by forming a protective capsule around the bacteria. For what? apparently to avoid detection by our immune system. And when he spread, he took out the poison from the "body".

To develop the vaccine they want, the Boston scientists combine the PGA to a basic component of anthrax toxins, known as the protective agent or PA, which became the target of many of the vaccines currently in circulation.

Among black men in Africa, the Bantu tribes in South Africa they basically do not eat dairy products and their calcium intake is low, it was around 300 milligrams per day, and their hip fracture rate 9 per 100,000 in population.

Physician Health Study is in progress against the men in the United States and other so-called epidemiological studies, population-based studies have found a definite relationship between consumption of dairy products with prostate cancer risk. So more and more dairy products are eaten by someone, higher risk of getting prostate cancer, and also the higher the risk of developing prostate cancer is malignant cancer.

And also there is a strong epidemiological evidence that consumption of dairy products associated with the risk of breast cancer in women.

There are many other conditions, for example, the rate of type 1 diabetes is highest in Scandinavian countries where consumption of dairy products is very high.

There are several studies that associated with the early introduction of cow's milk in the diet of children with increased risk of type 1 diabetes. Once you suffer from diabetes type 1 your going to inject insulin every day during your lifetime. And even if you wake up with a good condition, it may only be cut 10 years from your healthy life expectancy. So it's actually a serious condition.

Ms Chuter: Human beings are usually classified as omnivores, but really there are interesting differences between us and true omnivores.

So, carnivores and omnivores produce an enzyme called urikase. And uric acid urikase break. Well uric acid is a byproduct of protein digestion. Humans do not produce urikase, that's why people suffer from gout. Men are more easily subject to rheumatism, especially if they eat too much protein and it's just simply because we are not designed to handle the numerous uric acid. We can not parse it. He piled up; causing much danger. We should not eat food that is not for us.

MC: What other myths that want to be removed by Ms Chuter?
