Bacterial agent of bioterrorism
Bioterrorism literally means using microorganisms or infected samples to cause terror and panic in populations. Its purposefully release or threat of biologic agents (i.e. viruses, bacteria, fungi or their toxins) that cause disease and death among human population or food crops and livestock to terrorize a civilian population or influence the government. In other word, bacterial agent of bioterrorism means the bacterial strain or species which can be used as bioweapon for own purpose to attach others. Bioterrorism had already started 14 centuries before Christ. In world war I around 20th century Germany troops attempted to release bacillus anthrax and glanders which now known to cause by burkcholderia mallei among their enemies solders. Disease Control and Prevention have categorized in to three different categories, i.e. category A, category B, category C. thus, Category A is high bioterrorism agent ,category B get low priority and pathogen of water-food born disease category C for their future threat and emerging pathogen. hence, this seminar paper going to tell the most significant pathogenic , their character, route of transmission. This seminar paper focus specifically on Bacillus anthracis, Coxiella burnetii ,Tularemia ,Botulism ,Yersinia pestis, Brucellosis (Brucella Species) Glanders (Burkholderia mallei) ,Melioidosis (Burkholderia pseudomallei,Epsilon Toxin of Clostridium perfringen. Keeping in mind those sever and emerging essentially to discover new plan and policy of prevention and control among bacterial agent of bioterrorism
