Summary Introduction

Anthrax, caused by “Bacillus anthracis” is majorly observed in farm and domesticated animals. Anthrax is a “soil born bacterial disease” that leads to skin infections and in fatal cases, it may lead to death due to failure of the respiratory system. The spores of “Bacillus anthracis” can be ingested in humans by the consumption of animal materials. Evident expression of the disease can be observed in skin, intestine, and in the respiratory tract (through inhalation).
