Large doses of antibiotics could have wiped out competitor bacteria, paving the way for a resistant bacteria strain. Two weeks was the time frame from when Mrs. Kovac finished her antibiotic treatment to admittance to a hospital for dehydration. Her initial symptoms were stomach pains progressing to diarrhea. Antibiotics such as Clindamycin, cephalosporins, and penicillins are linked pseudomembranous colitis. What is the reservoir for Clostridium difficile? The reservoir of Clostridium difficile is the colon. The Clostridium infection is treated with high doses of antibiotics, fluids, and pressors. The use of antibiotics in farm animals is to increase their weight; farm animals suffer from small infections throughout their lives treatment with antibiotics prevent this. Low dose antibiotics provide a selective evoltuionary pressure to develop antiobitc resistance. Those bacterium that have developed resistance genes (e.g. efflux genes or proteans that break down antiotic molecules) will survive and reporduce, increasing the presense of resistant bacrteruia. THis study demonstrated that organic raised chicken had a lower rate of antibootic resitance when comapred to conventioanl
