military, atropine and 2-PAM-Cl (pralidoxime chloride) are used for first aid ("buddy aid" or "self aid") against nerve agents. An issue item, the Mark I NAAK (Nerve Agent Antidote Kit), provides these drugs in the form of two separate autoinjectors. A newer model, the ATNAA (Antidote Treatment Nerve Agent Auto-Injector), has both drugs in one syringe, allowing for the simplification of administration procedures. In the Gulf War, accidental and unnecessary use of atropine autoinjectors supplied to Israeli civilians proved to be a major medical problem. (Baren et al., 2007) In concert with the Mark I NAAK, diazepam (Valium) autoinjectors, known as CANA, are carried by US service members.The first aid kit developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) contains detection, decontamination and medical protection for chemical warfare agents including auto injectors for rapid administration and faster absorption of drugs. (Vijayaraghavan, et al 2012)The nerve agents like tabun, sarin, soman and Vx act rapidly and hence for medical protection, the antidotes are provided as autoinjectors in the first aid kit.(Vijayaraghavan,

    After lawn inoculating a Meuller Hinton plate and placing the samples of medication, the plate was then incubated for one week at 37 degrees Celsius. The first medication choice was Trimethoprim, this produced a zone of inhibition of 16mm, therefore being sensitive to the bacteria. Antibiotic number two was nalidixic acid, this too, has a zone of inhibition of 16mm but is considered intermediate. The next antibiotic was erythromycin which produced a zone of inhibition of zero and was therefore resistant. The last antibiotic that was chosen to be used in the experiment was ciprofloxacin.

  • How Did World War I Use Chemical Weapons

    208 Words  | 1 Pages

    Chemical warfare has been brought up multiple times throughout history. One of the most significant times chemical weapons have been used was during World War I. World War I introduced chemical weaponry to an extreme extent and for harsh purposes. There was a convention created called the Hague Convention which “discussed the issue of using chemicals as weapons” (First). The people within this group foresaw the potential use of chemicals during war, and wanted to try and prevent people being killed by this harsh weapon. There was later a second Hague Convention which added even more restraints to chemical weapons to further deter the use of chemical weapons.

    Human beings are hosts for many bacterial species that colonize our skin as their natural flora. The skin acts as a superior barrier and first line of defense against bacterial infections. When they do occur, these infections are mild and easily treatable; however some can become very serious and even life-threatening. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes are uncommon bacteria, but they are responsible for a wide variety of bacterial pyodermas [1]. In some cases, the host for bacterial infections can become contagious to others.

    Exercise 14: Unknown Identification Lab Report The purpose of the study was to identify the unknown bacterium using various biochemical tests in addition to using scientific methods in determining the outcome of the hypothesis. Each biochemical test will help determine the bacteria based on specific characteristics of each organism. I was giving unknown number 232. The first procedure that needed to be done after obtaining unknown bacterial mixture was to isolate the two bacteria in a pure culture using the streak plate method described in Microbiology Laboratory Manual Eight Edition. The material used was trypticase soy agar (TSA) plate, nutrient plate, starch agar, hydrogen peroxide, iodine reagent and microscope.

    745 Words  | 3 Pages

    CHEMICAL WEAPONS Chemical weapon is a device that uses chemicals formulated to inflict death or harm on human beings. The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons states: “The term chemical weapon may also be applied to any toxic chemical or its precursor that can cause death, injury, temporary incapacitation or sensory irritation through its chemical action. Munitions or other delivery devices designed to deliver chemical weapons, whether filled or unfilled, are also considered weapons themselves.” Under the Chemical Weapons Convention (1993), there is a legally binding, world-wide ban on the production, stockpiling, and use of chemical weapons and their precursors. Not with standing, large stockpiles there of continue to
