Deprivation for the Deaf Children,” “ Preventing the Enlargement of Terrorist Groups,” “The Use of Antibiotics in Fast Food Production,” “Zika Virus,” “Nuclear Weapon,” and “Getting to the Mars.” The group finally decided by process of vote to choose topic of “The Use of Antibiotics in Fast Food Production.” With that being said, the fast food production nowadays have many mighty chemicals and antibiotics that are being inserted in the animals…

Introduction The United States goes through many crises, but one in particular is the antibiotic resistance crisis.When a person becomes ill, they will go to the doctor and get an antibiotic, however, this illness may not need an antibiotic, as in a viral infection, or the patient may not take the medication correctly. As a result, antibiotic resistance occurs and can make it impossible to cure that illness in the future. Brad Spellberg, Robert Guidos, David Gilbert, John Bradley, Helen W.…

Should Antibiotic Use in Livestock Continue? When we get sick we make a trip to the doctor and get prescribed medicine. One common form of medicine prescribed is antibiotics. In addition, this form of medicine is used in the raising of livestock, but at a much larger quantity at 70% of all antibiotic use (The Overuse). So, what if I told you that too much of that drug can lead to harmful effects in our world? The issue of whether antibiotics should be used in the raising of livestock or not has…

century and is still in use today. Antibiotics are a type of medicine that helps stop infections caused by bacteria. The first Antibiotic (Penicillin) was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Since the discovery of Penicillin many other antibiotics have been discovered. The development of antibiotics was an important innovation because it cured infections, treated patients during World War I with infections and burns that led to the development of antibiotic resistant bacteria. A main cause…

Pathogenic bacteria species have been resistant to antibiotics before humans even made antibiotics. These bacterial samples which have displayed natural antibiotic resistance are as such due to genetic variation and mutations. When a bacterial species is exposed to an antibiotic, there is a selective pressure working against the majority which is not resistant. This leads to a decrease in the population of non-resistant bacteria yet an increase in the population of resistant bacteria since they…

issue of antibiotic resistance due to the potential link with meat consumption has become a problem. Dating back to around 1950, scientists started to find causes of antibiotic resistance present in humans. One major factor is that the antibiotics fed to animals are being transferred to humans through meat consumption. There were several cases of major outbreaks due to human bodies being resistant to a strain of bacteria. There have been a handful of evidence linking the cause to antibiotics fed…

Antibiotic Resistance Issue Background In the daily life, we will hear a variety of drug tolerance. Some of them happens on the body, per se. For example, diabetes patients’ long-term use of insulin will reduce the efficacy of insulin. And abuse of pain reliever for those chronic pain patients declines the effects as well. Differently, antibiotic resistance produces tolerance towards pathogen in the body rather than the organism itself. Plus, the pathogen will spread—that is why antibiotic…

the introduction of penicillin in the 1940s, antibiotics have become ubiquitous, leading to an undesirable consequence: resistance. It has been observed that when an antibiotic is introduced to human population, the antibiotics will quickly lose their function. Subsequently, now, in the 2000s, antibiotics are considered a major public health threat. Quite often, non-therapeutic use of antibiotics, especially the use of inadequate amounts of antibiotics in agriculture allows bacteria to acquire…

rather, something much scarier. They are antibiotic-resistant bacteria that are unable to be killed by one of the most important aspects of modern health. Not only are these invisible microbes just as deadly and disastrous as a hostile alien race or an environmental catastrophe, but they are also a reality, already affecting thousands of…

turned out to be an antibiotic substance called penicillin, which to his surprise, was the cure to many of the life threatening diseases at the time. With the introduction of the first ever antibiotic, it also marked the beginning of the…
