Bacillus anthracis is a relatively large, immobile, rod-shaped, gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic bacterium and is responsible for the so-called anthrax.

Anthrax is a disease of ungulates such as cattle or sheep that become infected with Bacillus anthracis.

The bacteria survive in spore form in the soil for years.

These bacteria enter the soil through the excretion of animals, or through burial of carcasses, or also through industrial effluents (tanneries, etc.).

These spore forms are reabsorbed by animals during feed intake and then multiply in the animal.

Transmission to humans occurs directly via sick animals, contaminated animal products or through inhalation of infected particles.

A distinction is made between the following diseases depending on the point of entry:

• Cutaneous anthrax: Caused by small skin injuries. An anthrax carbuncle with a necrotic, decaying centre forms within a few days.
  The pathogen may spread and settle in internal organs.
• Pulmonary anthrax: Caused by inhalation of the dust containing the pathogen.
  The symptoms are: atypical, severe bronchopneumonia, which may be accompanied by pulmonary haemorrhages.
• Intestinal anthrax: Caused by oral ingestion of the contaminated food. Symptoms are usually vomiting and bloody diarrhoea.

Anthrax is a rare disease in Austria and Germany.
If it does occur, however, it can be very severe, which is why anthrax must be treated with conventional medicine in any case.
