Clostridium difficile is the first on the list‚ it is gram-positive and erupts from the distribution of normal colon bacteria. The on set primarily starts by taking antibiotics‚ because Clostridium difficile is immune to nearly all antibiotics. Second is Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae‚ it’s a gram-negative blood infection and is resistant

to repair their damaged DNA. Sometimes‚ however‚ their repair is faulty‚ and the new DNA becomes abnormal‚ causing a new strain. Salmonella and Campylobacter are easily removed by irridation‚ but other bacteria are more stubborn. Some‚ like Clostridium botulinum and L. monocytogenes‚ have the ability to survive the drying techniques of irridation by converting themselves into tough‚ little spheres. Food irradiation‚ however‚ exposes an edible product to the equivalent of

The use of biological agents in bioterrorism is a topic that generates strong reactions and many opinions. While the use of these agents is not new‚ the increasing level of use in wartime situations is becoming more of a reality. Because biological agents can be relatively cheap to manufacture and can be easily hidden until time to use‚ they have become a real threat to our world. It is important to understand the history of this form of warfare and identify the most widely used agents so that
