Ruling Out Bacillus anthracis

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Optimization of methods for ruling out Bacillus anthracis leads to increased yields, faster turnaround times, and a lighter workload. We used 72 environmental non–B. anthracis bacilli to validate methods for ruling out B. anthracis.

Pyrosequencing Bacillus anthracis

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Pyrosequencing technology is a sequencing method that screens DNA nucleotide incorporation in real time. A set of coupled enzymatic reactions, together with bioluminescence, detects incorporated nucleotides in the form of light pulses, which produces a ...

Decontamination Efficacy and Skin Toxicity of Two Decontaminants against Bacillus anthracis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Decontamination of bacterial endospores such as Bacillus anthracis has traditionally required the use of harsh or caustic chemicals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a chlorine dioxide decontaminant in killing Bacillus anthracis ...

Loss of Bacitracin Resistance Due to a Large Genomic Deletion among Bacillus anthracis Strains

mSystems, 2018
Bacillus anthracis is a Gram-positive endospore-forming bacterial species that causes anthrax in both humans and animals. In Zambia, anthrax cases are frequently reported in both livestock and wildlife, with occasional transmission to humans, causing ...

Simple Detection of Bacillus anthracis Spores by Precipitation Method with Goat Antibody Anti Anthrosa [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Bacillus anthracis has a potential for biological weapon or bioterorism. Attack of Bacillus anthracis is very fatal, and the distribution is very easy and cheap through the spores.
